Manchester United's Paul Scholes has ended his playing career, aged 36.

Midfielder Scholes made his United debut in 1994, making 676 appearances, and will now join the coaching staff.

His retirement came after he helped the club win a record 19th league title, the 10th of his career, and his last game was Saturday's Champions League final loss to Barcelona.

"This was not a decision I've taken lightly but I feel now is the right time for me to stop playing," he said.


Remember when we were linked with him many years ago, if only...

They will miss him more than they would like to admit. He was the driving force of the team

Scholes...class player to be fair, and won't be easily replaced. MAN U will be looking for a CM now. Lets hope they hijack the mags Cabaye deal.

Scholes, what a legend. This is all.

The experience he will pass on through his coaching will be invaluable! Bet the young'uns can't wait to work alongside him.
