Re: Scholes
I think he'll retire, I was letting out Ray Wilkins-esque groans of pleasure as Scholes' fired cross field pass, after cross field pass to Big Tony's feet yesterday, but anyone in the midfield walks (doesn't need to run) straight past him, & his tackling is now no longer just hard, but actually petrifying - as his card tally this season attests to.
Like VDS, a PL - CL double would be a magnificent full stop on one of the all time great careers. Christ I hope we get someone worthy to replace him, as no one else in that current midfield is from the same planet as Scholes. |

I think he'll retire tbh, and it might not be a bad thing if it means we can bring new blood in/freshen that area of the pitch a bit as a result It will be a sad day when he does eventually call time though |

Re: Scholes
been thinking for a while he'll retire
probably the right thing to do but won't stop any of us from feeling he played last night like it could be his last game at OT. it felt like that anyway, but as long as the lads do the business on sunday then a draw or better at blackburn then he'll get his last game against blackpool. gonna miss him. |

His passes out to the flanks were amazing, touch, turn, ping... straight to feet. He didn't even need to look. That bit of control with his throat was ace too . I imagine that we could've stuck Zidane as he is now in the Scholes role last night and been able to marvel at him though such was Schalke's ability. The other problem with him not retiring is that Fergie may be tempted to pick him in games in which he is plainly going to be overrun and ineffective, as has been done on a good few occasions in recent years, unfortunately. |
