Veloso offers versatility which he would bring to the squad and it's in the papers today that Silvestre is of to Bordeaux so we might need a player who can be cover for Evra. What's wrong with talking about the best young players in the world who are being strongly linked to us? Oh I get it, you're Fergie's mate, and you're in the know..
Scholes has at least 2 good years left in him. Anyway I thought that we already have Scholes replacement in Anderson, Fletcher and Possenbon, not to forget that both Hargreaves AND Carrick can play in that role.

BTW why should we replace a left back cover with a midfielder?
