The Magc That Is Paul Scholes
Speaking of Paul Scholes, I think that it is about time we got to know our ginger midfielder a little bit better!
Scholes is Manchester through and through. Not only was he born in Salford but he has never played for another club. He began training at The Academy at the tender of age of 14 before signing a YTS contract upon leaving school in 1991. During his time in the youth team they actually won the FA Youth Cup. He was part of the soom to be first team squad with Beckham and the Neville brothers, which is one of the main reasons why Alex Ferguson bumped him up to first team duty in 1994, after just three years in the youth ranks. He actually scord twice in his full first team debut against Ipswich Town, a game that the Reds ultimately won.
Scholes soon became a regular in the side and established himself during the 1994/5 season, when he scored 5 goals in 17 appearences. However, he had to wait until 1997/8 to becaome a first team regular. Since his debut, he has won copious amounts of silverwear and is perhaps one of the most crucial players to Manchester United’s season to this day. Although retiring from the England national side, Scholes continues to play an active role for Manchester United, and hopefully will well into the future!

6:10 pm | The One And Only David Beckham
Regardless of what your opinions are of David Beckham, you cannot deny that he was once one of the greatest players in the world, and a proud Manchester United player. I’m sure that most Man Utd fans have a soft spot for him in their hearts, and so they should. He was a prime example of the youth team in his early days, along with the Neville brothers and Paul Scholes, to name but three. As he grew to be a recognised face in the squad, he helped spur the team on to trophy after trophy.
Beckham supported Manchester United from a boy and modelled himself on Bobby Charlton. He played football fantically as a child and jumped at the chance to sign on with United on his 14th birthday. It was a decision he would never regret. he signed a YTS contract in 1991 and only took four years to make his first team debut, which was in a 0-0 draw against Leeds on 2nd April 1995. He became a regular the following season and helped the team to winning the double. He continued to play with some success until moving to Real Madrid in 2003 following publicised spats with Alex Ferguson.
As Beckham had played over 400 games and scored 85 goals in 11 years, he remains one of the club’s longest serving and highest scoring players. Whatever else is said about him, Beckham was and is Manchester united through and through and we should all wish him luc when he moves to America in the summer!
