Rio, Giggs & Scholes - 6 months left on their deals
Surely Giggs & Scholes know the jig is up - well, surely Froggles does? Doesn't he? He must... :shakehead: Keep them around in coaching capacities by all means.
Rio - 34 now, creaking & the likes of Evans, Smalling, Jones (lol) & Vidic to contend with for a place. Undoubtedly been a magnificent player, but I think he'll be allowed to run his deal down & leave. You'd imagine all three are on circa £100k p/w - that's something like £15m in wages alone. How much would Hummels cost ? |

I think Rio could go on for a couple of years, I'm wondering if he wants to do the bit-part though. Doesn't spout of about his deal in the papers like Lampard tbf so I guess he may. Fergie's willingness to keep experience at the club as opposed to ruthlessly chopping of yesteryear speaks volumes. I still think Smalling should get in the side & stay there if we're to see the best of him - look what's happened to Rafael since he was instilled as the first choice without being hooked left right & centre.

Vidic and Rio rotating for the time being. You get the feeling that Giggs would stay as long as we'd have him, not sure about Scholes. Be interesting to see how much pitch time he gets in the second half of the season. |

or you could say that now that Rafael has grown up a bit he is able to hold down his place because he is good enough Smalling isn't good enough to hold down a place in central defence imo. On the ball or with the play in front of him he's very good usually. Anything else and he's far too easily panicked. Hard to imagine this not being exposed in training by the likes of RvP and Hernandez as well, seeing as it's shown up regularly by far lesser mortals on match-days. |

if Giggs is still getting the odd game here and there this time next season it's because he is good enough and/or because we didn't sign Ronaldo - although I'd love to see him and Ronaldo in the same side a few times before he retires |
