Im surprised no one has mentioned him. We do miss him a lot especially today against Chelsea. Paul Scholes very rarely gives the ball away and he calms the mid when our mid are in pressure. i can't wait to have him back. We did miss the Scholes in today's game defo. his passing is still the best and he doesn't give the ball away, if we had him today, we could of still won. have we got any updates on him? when is he coming back?
agree.. we lacked quality in mid to keep the ball .. some of our passing were really outrageous today
i know, most of the time we had the ball, we would just cheaply give them the ball back, lucky for us Chelsea didn't punish us in the first half for that but their manager made a damn smart move and send on mikel and Hazard on which made Mikel as defensive mid so that Hazard and Ramirez can attack when we give the ball away and that led to them coming back. I'm sure if Scholes was on the bench, we wouldn't of been soo sloppy in midfield because Scholes rarely gives the ball away. our passing was horrible, everytime we get the ball of them, we would give it away. It was frustrating. one thing is confusing, why couldn't they just make it straight to extra time rather then replay, replay is just an extra game for both teams and hopefully it does not affect our title charge.
