Top TEN Paul Scholes Quotes Ahead Of Chelsea Clash by Nobody: 8:56am On Oct 25, 2014
Former Manchester United midfielder
Paul Scholes believes Manchester United need to beat
Chelsea on Sunday.
Paul Scholes was writing in a column for the
Independent and gave his opinion on a few issues
going into his former club's game against Chelsea.

1. "United need to win. Chelsea will regard anything
more than a draw as a bonus."
2. "[Marouane] Fellaini is a good player. Is he an
obvious choice to play in midfield for United? No.
Would he be the first man you would look to as a
second striker off Robin van Persie? No. But he is a
great option for Van Gaal, and he has hit some form."
3. "My concern, from United’s point of view, is
Radamel Falcao. Is he match-fit? Is he even free of
injury? He still does not look quite right to me."
4. "Much will depend on the fitness of Angel Di Maria
on Sunday. I love the way Di Maria plays, although I
would prefer he gave the ball away a little less."
5. "No one can argue with the strength of Chelsea’s
start to the season. They are such a solid team. To
describe them as workmanlike would be to do them
an injustice, but at the heart of the way they operate
is a very simple understanding of how to win football
matches."
6. "I have a feeling United can win this game, provided
they can keep certain individuals under control. Top of
that list will be Eden Hazard,"
7. "Against West Bromwich Albion on Monday, the
home side had two chances and took both of them. In
many respects I felt United were unlucky."
8. "I believe that in Marcos Rojo and Phil Jones they
have the makings of a partnership at centre-half and
Sunday will be the kind of test that defines them."
9. "[Phil] Jones has the raw talent. Now it is up to him
to show he has the character to tell people what he
wants from them."
10. On Angel Di Maria, Scholes said: "He reminds me
of Ryan Giggs, who never allowed himself to be fazed
on the pitch. If a cross or a shot did not work the first
time, he was always sure that it would do so the next
time or the time after that. It is a vital quality to have
in a creative player.
What do you see happening at Old Trafford, 16:00hrs especially as Man Utd would be outing without Rooney (suspension) and Carrick (ankle injury)?
