im going to say something controversial but something that i dont want it to turn into a slagging of me thread.

scholes has only had 2 good games this season -maximum-

i remember how poor he was before anderson was introduced against wigan and then against villa they were good together but he got injured shortly after that then came back the other day.

yes some of my threads were knee jerk and abit immature but the problem is raring its ugly head again.

we have a tough midfield no with four options.
scholes has done nothing within the last 7 months just suggest he should start ahead of carrick and anderson enough to demand a starting berth.


i know its not the time for this but scholes really shouldnt be starting at all and lets cast our minds back to nov/dec. how many of us missed scholes when he was out? honestly ask yourself this.

Scholes was very good last season, but he did fade in the last 2-3 months of the season, and it was evident against the better sides that he struggled.

He is still a superb techicican, but he is very immobile these days, and without doubt a defensive liability. Ireland and hammann totally dominated the midfield, Anderson and Scholes were second to every ball in the first half.

Very surprising that Carrick did not start today, he has been our best midfielder in the last 2 months, has been very effective defensively as well as passing the ball excellently.

Nostalgia played a part in the team selection today, 6 very offensive players, no defensive cover in midfield and City exploited that on the counter.

Just thought I'd make a brief but (don't worry) temporary return.

I predicted Scholes would come back and be landed straight back into the team.

I also predicted that we would fall apart on his return because he's well past it.

Not £#%&!ing finding his feet after injury, not held back by having to play alongside [insert non-Manc here], £#%&!ing past it.

He should be fourth choice midfielder from now on and only used against the sort of cannon fodder that come to OT and never leave their half.

The last two games have been a reality check, one hopes, for the delusional and nostalgic.

Fergie included.

Scholes has lost all acceleration especially over 2 -5 m. That was one of his strengths . Just look at some games of a few years ago. He is slow in thought as well.Now plays the Wilkins - Crab way of many years ago - sideways.

Too harsh.

I think you were moaning about Scholes last season aswell weren't you? When he had an incredible season. Perhaps this shouldn't really surprise me too much;

He should be fourth choice midfielder

You're talking about someone who's just come back from a 3 month injury lay off. I really would like to read what you think about Giggs who has been MEDIOCRE all season.

exactly

knee jerkism is rampant

Scholes must go. He must.

What a bunch of utter weapons you are.

Against Pompey 1st half he gave one of the greatest midfield performances I've seen in a long, long time.

The mickeys may talk about Molby and Alonso but we still have an absolute genius in Paul Scholes.

Embrace him, for he is the greatest footballer you will ever see.

Good post

Amongst our support we comfortably have some of the most embarrassing and fickle fans i have ever come accross. Get a grip you freaks.

Sad to say I was expecting there would be a thread like this. He's only just back from three months out ffs. He was top class last season. Ten years of brilliant service; now he's finished after two poor performances following a bad injury. Unbelievable.

scholes ..... can someone explain to me why play him infront of the back 4 when we have carrick and hargreaves .... the manager is at fault

Exactly and every time we have a player coming back from injury we have threads by know nowt @#%&!s slagging them off who promptly shut the £#%&! up when they are back up to speed.

No one is allowed to question Scholes' contribution, it's top red status blindly repeating that he's the best in his position in the world. Over the past 5 years, Lampard has been better than Scholes.

The midfield today had so much more bite it was staggering. Don't come moaning to me when Scholes starts against Lyon and we struggle.

Because that's where he wants to play.

Was I dreaming the winning run we had with Anderson and SCHOLES in centre mid at the start of the season.

There was no slagging of SCHOLES up until his injury which lasted a while and because he ain't straught back into it he is shit.

LOL Tossers.
