I don't think he ever got back fit on the other side of new years last season. If he can get back so his late 2010 form, he'll be starting soon.
what the hell
Registration issues with league games perhaps?
Cant make my mind up about it. I am happy just because it is Paul Scholes.
I felt he could have stayed on another year (like VDS) but he didnt obviously. So you move on or try to move on at least.
I think at times he was outstanding last season. So even if he gives us 2 or 3 more great games I guess it will be worth it.....I think...maybe

We looked a better team with him on the pitch against Barca.
Well really we replaced Paul Scholes with Tom Cleverley but he got injured after 5 games and we ended up playing defenders in midfield so we've gone back to Scholes. Makes sense really.
Until we start getting players back from injury and back on form, this is a sticky plaster, but thats what we need.
at the moment that would appear to be true yes. but its hardly a long term move thats going to stop their progress.
Lets be honest, if this was Liverpool, or any other club in the top half we'd be breaking our shit laughing at them wouldn't we?
strange to see he has been brought back. Obviously I hope he does well but its only papering the cracks. It's 20 odd games so Im wondering will he play in most of them?
Hopefully we don't have some assholes calling him shite if he doesnt do so well.
And this also says to me that Fergie has admitted to himself that he needs to sign new blood in the summer.

Legend
Someone like Redknapp maybe, not Scholesy though. I think it will give the team a lift
Nah. We've replaced him with a Paul Scholes who hasn't kicked a ball in a serious game in 6 months or so.
As much as I love Paul, this is a bit of joke really.
Is he back just for this game or longer, do we know how long he's back for?
This is like some crazy beautiful dream.

We are not a mediocre mid table club who lack founds to invest, as far as I know we are one of the biggest clubs in the world. Every move we do will be analyzed and if we signal weakness it will cost us on every level.
To be honest I don't understand what Sir Alex is thinking. If Scholes succeed it will show everybody that we lack proper midfielder, and the question will be why don't we fix it? If he fails this move will look desperate and weird.
It's a lose and lose situation and not worthy a club of our size.
Scholesy for England.
Back for the rest of the season.
til the end of the season
I love Scholesy, but that just smacks of desperation and probably of the fact that we're skint. Still the excitement of the game has risen considerably.
Im not disputing that - in fact, I've been saying it x amount of times.
But we are. And this at least shows that the manager is at least doing something. Maybe not enough - but maybe a start.
This is how I feel. Love him
I love Scholes and he may still be able to provide that magic to our midfield but we should not be relying on him to bail us out of our midfield problems.
Quite
I genuinely 
when I heard the news. Great to have him back.
when I heard the news. Great to have him back.I'm so hungover and very very confused.
Do you not think it could simply be that we have a lot of injuries at the moment and could use an extra midfielder to cover us and being able to bring in an experienced player who is a fan favourite and won't really complain if he's not playing much could be an ideal situation. Ideally we don't have to rely on him but having him about as an extra option even as a sub could give us an extra option.
But do you think we can get players we want this transfer window? atleast our perception of able players ala modric, bastien.
Yes it's a start - at last. I thought he must be in denial or something but at least it's a step in the right direction
I can't see us signing Lampard... Well, I'd like to think so. That said, with Scholes coming back and us singing Owen a few seasons ago, I suppose anything's possible.
Now to pull VDS back in!
It'll feel a bit wrong to see Scholes wearing 22.
Not denial but a lack of funds to purchase the best centre midfielders.
what the feck
This is also how I see it.
Thanks plech, you cocknose.
My mum just walked in and saw your post.

Didnt Scholes wear 22 when he 1st got into the squad in 94?
Well, yeah. In that case I guess you can say it's better than nothing. But then I think you're missing why people are complaining: It's not just because we're bringing Scholes out of retirement. It's because the club is pretty much forced to do something, because we haven't bought a central midfielder since 2007 while it's been clear to 98% of the the world's population that we needed at least one new player there.
Does this mean he's finally gonna shut up talking to the media. He hasn't stopped talking to them since May
