He is ol' reliable he has great vision and passing ability, and he is always there to help Man U in the big games, although he will miss the game against arsenal because his red card has a 3 game suspension. -
his fvcking rudeness is unbearable. he could have easily ended a lot of careers with his uber nasty fouls!
but as for his skills.......he is world class!Leave a comment:

he's great, something about the players of his era, some are still playing and being effective at an old age; raul, del piero, zanetti, pirlo, seedorf, klose etc...Leave a comment:

How much do you rate Paul Scholes?
The question is in the topic title. How much do you rate him? He's my role model, not only because I play in similar position to him, but off the pitch, he never does anything silly. You won't hear stories about him causing problems etc. He's got a wonderful vision, and passing range. You will hardly see him give the ball away. He never had pace or strength, but it was hardly needed with his fantastic technique and footballing brain.
Unfortunately, some people have been criticising him, and that he's not very good, because of his tackling. Although his tackling has been very weak, (recieved 10 red cards in his career) , one cannot say he's not a great player. I forgot to add, his wonderful goals (YouTube the ones vs Villa,Bradford,) etc, where he stuck the ball so sweetly.
What other players have said about him:
Marcello Lippi: “Paul Scholes would have been one of my first choices for putting together a great team."
Laurent Blanc: "I tell anyone who asks me - Scholes is the best English player."
Edgar Davids: "I'm not the best, Paul Scholes is."
Thierry Henry on best player in the Premiership: "Without any doubt it has to be Paul Scholes."
Zinedine Zidane: "Scholes is undoubtedly the best midfielder of his generation."
Veron while at Chelsea being asked in an interview who's the best english player: "Paul Scholes."
Alan Shearer: "If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes."
Ferguson: "I think Paul Scholes is the best player in England. He's got the best skills, the best brain. No one can match him."
Xavi: "In the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen - the most complete - is Scholes.
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."
Sir Bobby Charlton: "Paul Scholes is my favourite player."
