I just had to do a cut & paste jobbie with this.......

Paul Scholes has delivered a stunning snub to David Beckham by insisting he was not fazed by the England captain's exit from Manchester United.
Beckham's move to Real Madrid in the summer left many at Old Trafford in a state of shock, but Scholes was typically unfazed by the departure of his international colleague.

"I wasn't too bothered to be honest," was Scholes' assessment of the transfer saga surrounding his former team-mate. "It didn't affect me or any of the other players."

It would appear Scholes had accepted that Beckham would move on a long time before he actually signed on the dotted line at Santiago Bernabeu.

"It was on the cards that Becks was going to go," Scholes told FourFourTwo.

"With the way he was, I always knew that, one day, he would want to go. He wasn't going to be at United forever."

Scholes appears to embrace the philosophy that no single player is bigger than the club.

"Obviously we miss his free-kicks," he added. "But we still have plenty of players who are great with dead balls, people like Ryan (Giggs) and (Cristiano) Ronaldo.

"Whatever player is on the right for United is just as good as Becks.
Becks is gone, we are just getting on with it, we really don't care about what went on in the summer. All that matters is winning."

Scholes' attacking instincts have caught the eyes of continental admirers, but his commitment to The Red Devils has been unwavering and he seems determined to be a one-club man.

"I never want to leave Manchester United," Scholes insisted. "The club might want to sell me, but I will never ask to leave."

A big money offer from Chelsea would also receive short shrift.

"That doesn't interest me at all," he said. "I would never join Chelsea: they are the enemy now."

***All hail the ginger prince... :devil: :devil: :devil:
Scholes eh? Sums it up nicely.
Why get involved in convoluted discussions about DB? Scholes says it all in very simple terms.

Wasn't sure wheather to laugh or not when I read: "Chelsea are the enemy now" - WTF? Scholes has obviously been sitting in quite contemplation during his injury period to come up with that little gem.

Can't wait to have him back in the starting line-up.

Ok, just please look before you post such things, otherwise we all have to converse over multiple threads, which is a pain in the arse.
