I really rate Paul Scholes, because he hasn't got the high profile of many of the Manchester United players, he doesn't get too much attention, but he is one very good player. He is an intelligent player, he works hard and he scores some great goals. He is not flamboyant and is a quiet lad off the pitch but he is a tremendous asset to Manchester United and to England. He has already got my vote as player of the year.

Those that say it is the taking part and not the winning that is important are, for me, wrong. It is the other way round.

I will sign every contract Arsenal put in front of me without reading it.

Play for the name on the front of the shirt, and they will remember the name on the back

I will have to make tactical decisions, technical decisions and emotional decisions. This time it was a tactical one.

Left alone with our own heads on, we can be pretty mental.
