SCHOLSEY IS A LEGEND…THE BEST MIDFIELDER WE HAVE…WHAT HE CAN DO OTHERS CAN JUST GASP AT. Ask the players in training who they watch…not roo or ron or berba…but the ginger magician.

BIG BIG BIG LOSS…..HOPEFULLY 10 WEEKS BECOMES LESS AND HE IS BACK ASAP.

Carrick and hargreaves essential now…free from injury pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

and Ando has to step up to the plate now…really needs too

i dunno if scholes will be missed that badly.i mean when he was playing i don’t think he was setting the world on fire..anderson should fit in comfortably.just like he did last year.

Carrick should be back after the Blackburn game and the International break, Possebon only needed stitches cus it was just a deep gash, so 2-3weeks at best. Hopefully we should cope.

When Scholes was injured last season, Anderson stepped in and even kept Carrick out of the starting XI.
Perhaps it’s a good opportunity for him to gain some consistency with regular football.

Nobody, not even Anderson can replace Scholes. Carrick is more suited to step in to Scholes’ role. His passing range is better and he can also sit back. Fletch and Anderson will have to battle it out for the remaining place… once Carrick is fit.

We’ve not had much luck so far have we!?

Rooney in midfield ? It sounds “logical” but I think this guy needs a stable job-description so that he can grab it with both hands and form an effective partnership with #9.

I’d much rather have Tevez “drop back” into a Scholes-role. He’s much less of a conventional striker (and less so than TheBoyWonder, too) so it wouldn’t be such a big ask. However, I don’t see that happening since there are still plenty of options and Fergy needs to sort out his attacking formation to make the best use of this fantastic talent.

Rooney will most likely drop back with Berva and Tevez up fron

Scholes will be a huge miss. Hopefully Anderson can prove himself some more. Hargreaves needs to get his knee situation figured out because hes going to be huge in big games and especially the Champions league.

What? O’shea on the bench? He was class against Aalborg! Concerning the Ginger Prince – 10 weeks in the gym, and we get lots of class act performances from him in the last important part of the season. Fletcheradona and Anderson would do well, in addition to Carrick and Hargo. Giggs and Rooney can also slot in as the midfield maestro. No worries lads, good times ahead.
