Surely Bruno ahead of 2008 Scholes sha.

Scholes is a fantastic player , no doubt. I don’t think there are many players who have his passing vision and range. For him to be a starter at that age and even play on for years after then speaks of his quality.

Our midfield problems have been there since Fergie’s last years. It should’ve been taken care of before he left.

Owen H’s injury was a big blow. Would we have won the 2009 UCL with him in the side?

Wbo among the current team starts for this team? Or can make the bench

SUBs: J.S park, Fletcher, Brown, Nani, Anderson, O'shea, Kuzcsaks and Silvestre.

Good old days cee, good old days. cry

My view is that since we are doing a combined 11 surely we can't keep the same formation, we have to pick a formation that fits them best.

My combined 11

Der sar

Neville ..... Ferdinand ..... Vidic ..... Evra

Scholes ....... Carrick

Bruno

Rashford ..... Rooney ..... Ronaldo


For me, I will drop giggs and tevez(never really liked him, personal bias cheesy).

For the bench
I will drop kuzcaks and park, for de gae and pogba.

Martial will be training with the u18s. grin

LooL.

What I meant was that Bruno has the best chance of getting into the starting lineup out of all the players we currently have.

Having said that, I think you’re viewing Scholes through blue tinted glasses.

In 2008, Scholes was 34 years o. His influence in the team was on the decline already although he does chip in good performances.

Assess him based on the form that he was in at that time, not his whole career.

This Bruno won't get in ahead of Scholes. Scholes was a midfield controller which suited that style we played back then. Most of our attacks were from the wings.

This is the coach fault. His tactical structure is average, hence the poor positioning to receive pass.
Exactly, Ole is poor in that regard

Park? Fergie will throw his shoes at you for making this comment...

Giggs over Bruno...Giggs was just too intelligent and his deliveries were most times spot on...

Tevez over Rashford for me sha.

He was suspended in the semis vs Arsenal...That suspension killed any chance we had because like Flamini in 2006 or thereabout, he was one of the best DM in world in that season...

Saka, greenwood and foden were born before April 1 2002 I guess, because that's what the list is made of.

Bruno and Pogba will get into the 2008 team. De Gea might actually start ahead of Van Der Sar.

The issue here is Pogba and Bruno would have raised their game by now because of the calibre of the players in the United squad as at then. Rooney or Ronaldo would give Bruno an earful if he misplaced a simple throughball. He wouldn’t make such a mistake again.

The current players can fück around because the manager is a weak fool that rewards failure coupled with the fact that the standards have dropped to the point that Maguire came from Leicester to captain United within a year or so.

If Paul Scholes decides to come out of retirement today, he is going to bench all this midfielders we are parading.
