We all know Scholes is the main midfield general of Manchester United, and he has still been one of the best in terms of cross-field passes, crosses, defense-breaking passes, tackling and many others. His vision, skill and technique is one of the main reasons why former Manchester United midfielder Robbie Savage was offloaded to another club. Yeah you have got it right, Robbie Savage...
Yes yes we all do know that Robbie Savage is now suffering while playing in a team managed by Nigel Clough, Derby County. Anyone read the newspaper few days ago? Savage got spat upon by no one else other than the FIFA World Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo. Thank goodness it was not a major problems caused despite all the media coverage.
Anyways, back to the Scholes Screamer which we saw on TV at 8pm (+8GMT) aka 4am Malaysian time @ ESPN this morning. We noticed how much Scholes is still much of a talent and respect to the players despite being humbly humiliated by the Messiah (Lionel Messi) in the Champions League Semis at Old Trafford last year. All in all, did you know Messi himself is a Scholes fan?
Mark Schwarzer, the Fulham goalkeeper must have felt that the sting of the shot which was provided by Michael Carrick to Paul Scholes to allow it to roll past his grasp and sneak into the other side of the goal. It was so obvious that Schwarzer was actually swining his palms after the goal during the group celebrations amongst the ManUtd players.
Edwin van der Sar is argueably the most relieved goalkeeper in the world after Bobby Zamora's double attempts which almost sneaked into the goal during the game. Luckily the fans and players alike survived the scare and Edwin was caught by cameras with double eyebrows raised and winking at the cameras. Pure comedian from the 38 year old veteran.
Yes. We all know we are 5 points top, but lets hope we will keep up with this form and don't get sloppy with it. There's still another 13 more games to go and its time for us to buckle up and keep cheering for the best team in England, Europe and in the world.
