The Best Goal Of The Year award Nominees: Paul Scholes, Nani, Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov Paul Scholes’ late winner against Manchester City at Wastelands helped ensure the blues would miss out on Europe whilst giving United a shout of the title still. After beating them in injury time twice already that season, you could [...]
How embarrassing. After being lauded a hypocrite for waging a war on tough tackling once all his dirty players, like Vieira (more red cards than anyone in the history of Premiership football), Keown, Lauren etc. have left, Arsene Wenger was left with egg on his face on Saturday afternoon. Arsenal youngster, Jack Wilshere, was guilty [...]
Strangely enough, the only other times Scholes has won this award is January 2003, December 2003 and October 2006.
Paul Scholes has conceded that he expected 2009-2010 to be his last season but is happy to keep on playing for as long as he’s good enough. “At Christmas last season I did not think I would be playing in this one,” he said. “I wasn’t playing well enough. The season before last I had [...]
Arsene Wenger gave a glowing report of Manchester United legend Paul Scholes last week, talking of his great contribution to United’s success and English football in general.

Arsene Wenger gave an interview about Paul Scholes offering plenty of praise, claiming he wished he played for Arsenal and that he has been integral to United’s success over almost two decades.

Jose Mourinho is the latest member of the Paul Scholes fanclub. “Scholes? Fantastic,” said Mourinho. “Why isn’t he playing for England? It is crazy. Only in England. Scholes is a great, great player. So experienced and still, for me, one of the best in the world in midfield. Manchester United are lucky to have him.”
Arsene Wenger claimed that Paul Scholes was a dirty player, with an unfair approach to the game and possessed a dark side. RoM published statistics showing that Scholes is far from a dirty player.

“It depends what you call clever and what you call dirty,” said Wenger, who was asked whether he felt Scholes tackled unfairly. “Unfairly, of course, unfairly,” he replied. “How many times have you watched Paul Scholes?
