Worst player is Scholes.. hope he doesn't get sent off
Scholes is a *word censored* who gets away with being a *word censored*
One of the most overrated *word censored* in history too. Have never ever understood the hype with him
I agree. 4 years ago when he was still somewhere near his best even most United fans wouldn't have considered him in the PL's greatest XI. But because he's played on well past his best - passing the ball 3 yards to defenders 100 times against shit teams and chasing shadows against good teams) - he's suddenly the best midfielder of the modern era?
He's gone round kicking people and making awful tackles his whole career, but of course this is just what he's like hehehehe. Wanker.
Disagree totally. Yes he's a dirty little ginger twat at times but up until a couple of years ago Scholes has probably been the best all round midfield player in Britain. Great passer both long and short, keeps the ball well, puts in a tackle - even illegal ones - when necessary, scores goals and has plenty of fighting spirit. Apart from the fact he played for one of our rivals, what's not to like?
The photos etc that have quotes from various legends of the game superimposed on them about how Scholes is the best player to have ever walked the Earth. English journalists stick a microphone under a foreign player's nose and ask them what they think of Paul Scholes and unsurprisingly they are effusive with praise as the ones interviewed are classy pros and not morons. FFS Messi even said Walcott was one of the most dangerous players he'd ever witnessed when asked about him.
Scholes is so off the pace now it's embarrassing when he comes up against a half-decent midfield, yet United fans bleat on about meaningless mundane statistics on possession and passing at home to Bolton, etc.
Gotta love how all he has to do is fart on the bench for the commentators to start wanking themselves hollow over how he's "changed the game for United."
Top quality player in his day obviously (although if it wasn't for refereeing bottlejobs he'd have missed half his career through suspension the dirty little *word censored*) but he seems to have gotten better in people's imaginations with every passing season. In the same way Cantona's ability seemed to reach mythical proportions as a result of him Kurt Cobaining his career relatively young, Scholes seems to be the opposite and the longer he hangs about like a fart in a lift the more sugar-coated everyone's memory of him becomes.

I know what you mean but no way are they going to go the whole season. I know people said that about us but we were absolutely immense. City are not - they have Nastistjasdcs (sic) playing centre-half most of the time, their full-backs are distinctly average, Silva hasn't been at his best for nearly a year and Mancini's only go-to tactic is bringing on Dzeko.

I know the logic, but that doesn't stop the worry building every game. Want to see Invincibles day asap. Let's remember that on paper this is their second most difficult game of the season.
