So who is the best player ever in the current Manchester United squad? Many people, whether they are Man U fans or not, will agree that it is Cristiano Ronaldo



Take a few steps back and you will realize there are others who are equally good during the past and present. Although the Portuguese enjoys all the glitz and glamour at Old Trafford, there is one player whom I believe is more worthy of my respect(and he does not crash his car)

So who could it be? Rio Ferdinand? No, he served an eight month ban for pontang-ing a drug test in 2003 and has committed several driving offences. Gary Neville the captain? He spends more time in the treatment room than on the field. Dimitar Berbatov? He's too new to even be considered. Wayne Rooney? Nah, put this balding guy in the backseat of Ronaldo's car and let them crash together. Park Ji Sung? He was not even a substitute in the 2008 Champions League final

Who is it then?

Ryan Giggs!



No it's not him, haha

I have to admit that he is a legend and has world class skills. But, he has shown everybody that age is catching up on him. His pace has slowed down in recent years and so has his stamina. In a whole, he is still a popular player in the football world and has numerous supporters all over the world

Alright, so who the heck is the guy?

You should have guessed it by now if you have realized that one VIP(very important player)name is still missing

Paul Scholes


All hail the ginger prince!

Scholes is a complete midfielder, enough said. His only weakness which has bugged him throughout this career is his temper. He is renowned for getting red cards and resorting to violence on the field at times but at least he does not drive recklessly

Here are some quotes from other notable people from the game, my favourite is the one by Thierry Henry

PATRICK VIEIRA - "The player in the Premiership I admire most? Easy - Scholes".

THIERRY HENRY - "I can't understand why Scholes has never won the player of the year award. He should have won it long ago. Maybe it's because he doesn't seek the limelight like some of the other "stars".

ZINEDINE ZIDANE- "My toughest opponent? Scholes of Manchester. He is the complete midfielder".

DAVID BECKHAM - "He's always one of those people others talk about. Even playing at Real Madrid, the players always say to me 'What's he like'? They respect him as a footballer and to have that respect from some of those players is great. He always creates space and gets into the right places at the right time".

And from the reckless driver himself

CRISTIANO RONALDO - "He is a fantastic player - a key player in many games. He helps the team a lot. You learn many things from him as he is a mature player and has been at United a long time. It is always fantastic to play alongside someone of his quality".

Paul Scholes was part of the 1990s Fergie's Fledglings, who are talented young players coming from the youth system. They include David Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Scholes himself and many more


Let's see if you can guess who's who here

The End
