Paul Scholes retires aged 36 (1 Viewer)

good decision, no need for him to carry on, nothing to prove. What a player

Pity there isn't a chance AT can tempt him with one year in the Championship

I always thought he would bow out with a year at his beloved Oldham but guess he doesn't need hacking down every game.

An absolutely quality player and a model professional.

Shame he didn't play on longer for England.

It was the time he always found on the ball like all good players do. When he didn't have it, constantly looking all around him and trying to sit in space so he could receive it and get something going. First class palyer but probably the worst player in history when it came to tackling.

He was just so consistent with everything he did in every game, no matter who the opponent; his ability to find space in a packed midfield, his ability to thread superb pinpoint passes through a solid defence and most impressive of all, his ability to wreck boys with such utter devastation and lapse timing that you had to wonder, can a professional footballer trully be that uncoordinated in tackles or does he do that shit for fun?

A hero in the passing

One of the best midfielders i have ever seen, particularly in an england shirt. Model professional and will be missed but a good decision in my opinion.
