You could still raise about 10m for him, but if you leave it much longer his value will plummet.
He's showed time and again that he can't hack it at the top level,and is little more than a flat track bully...
Plus he looks like a ginger milk bottle, and is crap in terms of merchandise cash...
Do you all agree?

Even if this were a serious post and there was some reason to get rid of Scholes from our perspective (there really isn't, sorry) then I don't think we would. Scholes isn't the kind of player to like moving around, he's a family man who keeps a low profile. Sure, if Oldham had the money I'm sure he'd move if United really really wanted rid... But no, I can't really see him leaving the club before he retires to be honest. Same with Giggs.
Btw, he doesn't create problems for the formation. He adds new dimensions and possibilities. A Houllier-like manager would have seen this as a problem, but Fergie sure does not.
