[thered]

dunno about that roy keane was superb although he was poor at the end with us

scholes has still got it but needs runners around him like fletcher,giibson he was still best player saturday for first 20 mins but once city pushed up and swamped us in the middle he lost his way no time on ball and nobody around him to pass too

if you give scholes time he is still the best passer in the league he just cant get up and down like he used too

tackling he has never been good at although i must admit he is getting worse lately i dont actually think he is malicious he just mistimes everything

i like park but he is a runner or like cantona said about deschamps a waterboy

every team needs at least one though

some scholes comments from over the years

Micah Richards : "He's always in the right position, always seems to be at the end of the box when the ball drops in. The complete midfielder - when he's fit, he's the best. Some go missing but he's in the right place at the right time. He's my favourite player of all-time, unbelievable. If you give him a chance it's a goal, isn't it?"

Glenn Hoddle : "There isn?t a player of his mould anywhere else in the world."

Terry Venables : "He?s the best one- or two-touch passer in the country. He sees the game unlike any other player."

Alan Shearer : "If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes. He can tackle, and his passing and shooting is of the highest level. He?s the most consistent and naturally gifted player we?ve had for a long, long time."

Eidur Gudjohnsen : "I'm more an admirer of Paul Scholes than I am of Ronaldo. Ronaldo is a fantastic player, but he has 10 other great players around him every week...Scholes is one of the most complete footballers I've ever seen. His one-touch play is phenomenal. Whenever I have played against him, I never felt I could get close to him."

Edgar Davids : ""Every one of us (midfielders) is just trying to become as good as him. Everyone can learn from Paul Scholes."

Edgar Davids : "I'm not the best, Paul Scholes is."

Tony Adams : "I really rate Paul Scholes, because he hasn't got the high profile of many of the Manchester United players, he doesn't get too much attention, but he is one very good player. He is an intelligent player, he works hard and he scores some great goals. He is not flamboyant and is a quiet lad off the pitch but he is a tremendous asset to Manchester United and to England. He has already got my vote as player of the year."

Cesc Fabregas : "He is the one whose level I aspire to. He is the best player in the Premier League."

Patrick Vieira : "The player in the Premiership I admire most? Easy - Scholes."

Thierry Henry : "I can't understand why Scholes has never won the player of the year award. He should have won it long ago. Maybe it's because he doesn't seek the limelight like some of the other 'stars'."

Zinedine Zidane : "My toughest opponent? Scholes of Manchester. He is the complete midfielder."

Zinedine Zidane : "Scholes is undoubtedly the best midfielder of his generation."

Sam Allardyce : "There is not a better midfield player in the world."

Kevin Keegan : "What United have got that Chelsea haven't is Paul Scholes. I think he is different to anything else in English football."

Marcello Lippi : "Paul Scholes would have been one of my first choices for putting together a great team - that goes to show how highly I have always rated him. Scholes is a player I have always liked, because he combines great talent and technical ability with mobility, determination and a superb shot. He is an all-round midfielder who possesses character and quality in abundance. In my opinion, he's been one of the most important players for United under Sir Alex."

Ray Wilkins : "I'm saddened because I think we as spectators, not only in this country but right through out Europe and the rest of the World, will be missing one hell of a footballer."

Gordon Strachan : "Paul Scholes has been the best England midfield player for 30-odd years. You'd probably have to go back to Bobby Charlton to find someone who could do as much as Scholes. When the ball arrives at his feet he could tell you where every player on that pitch is at that moment. His awareness is superb."

Veron while at Chelsea being asked in an interview who's the best english player : "Paul Scholes."

Peter Schmeichel : "People say he is a great player, but you have to define what a great player is, For me, it is a player who has a bottom level that means his worst performance is not noticed.If he is having a bad game, a team-mate might feel Paul Scholes is not quite on his game, but a spectator wouldn't notice. Scholes, of all the players I have played with, has the highest bottom level. His reading of the game is unsurpassed.He has an eye for a pass, for what the play or the game needs at that precise moment, that I have never seen anyone else have. He controls and distributes the play and the game better than anyone I have ever seen."

Laurent Blanc : "Scholes is the best English player. Intelligence, technique, strength... all the attributes are there. At Manchester United I saw what he could do on the training field. Phew!"

David Beckham said that, among his teammates at Real Madrid, which included Zinedine Zidane, Ra?l, Ronaldo, Lu?s Figo and Roberto Carlos, Scholes was the most admired opponent : "He's always one of those people others talk about. Even playing at Real Madrid, the players always say to me 'what's he like'? They respect him as a footballer......

Zinedine Zidane : "My toughest opponent? Scholes of Manchester. He is the complete midfielder."

Zinedine Zidane : "Scholes is undoubtedly the best midfielder of his generation."

When you have player like ZIdane talking this for Scholes that is the best tribute. Scholes is one of the most underestimated players in football. He has never been the player that enters the first plan, fancy player that is on the front pages of magazines, player with scandals and talks outside the field and that is the only thing which puts him to the side. Therefore the only recognition he achieves is from his colleges and that is the biggest one and true, not from ordinary football fan.

Scholes is one of the best player I ever saw. The day when he finish career will be very very sad day.

Last Saturday mate -

I hope carrick is not in the team tonight,he is a liability.

I hope carrick is not in the team tonight,he is a liability.

thought he played well last few weeks then he reverted to his usual sloppiness if only he could pick passes through opossition as good instead of too them we'd have half a player

hopefully a win tonight and a spurs win tommorow will see us 9 points clear which will mean we only need 1 win from last 5 and thats if arsenal win all 5

all ifs and buts but if we can get this sewn up tonight im sure spurs will be super keen for 3 points which can help us concentrate our efforts on schalke and not have to worry about the league too much

[andymc1s]

then he reverted to his usual sloppiness if only he could pick passes through opossition as good instead of too them we'd have half a player

we want a complete player not just half.

very true he can be a decent player though at times when he is switched on but he is too laxidaysical

if that how its spelt

i have been saying on here for ages our midfield needs a full revamp we are IMO a couple of midfielders short of a great side i would keep carrick for the squad though
