Ed Chamberlain’s question was innocuous enough, a simple square pass requiring merely a knock-on to his mate Gary Neville, sitting alongside.
“What do you make of the week Arsenal have had, Paul?”


But instead of the tap inside, we got a scything tackle, taking man, ball and team and leaving them all in a heap on the touchline.
“Probably a typical week for Arsenal really,” said Scholes. “They capitulated at Chelsea and it seems to be a similar theme when they play the top teams.
“I don’t know if it’s the manager’s fault or the players’, but that’s just the way it seems to me.”


Scholes could not conceal the contempt in his voice as he went in with studs showing.
“When you are under pressure you just say to your team-mates, ‘Hey, get in here together and let’s stop these attacks for 10 minutes’.
“These,” spat Scholes, “they go 2-0 down and just carry on with what they are doing. ‘I’ll just have a wander up front, lose the ball, play a nice one-two and not bother sprinting back’. You wonder how they are as high in the table as they are.”
