Paul Scholes: We Will Silence The Critics

EPL Football News – According to the Manchester Evening NewsManchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has insisted that his side will overcome their current problems with traditional Old Trafford grit and character.

The Red Devils drew 1-1 at Birmingham City on Saturday, a result which follows on from an FA Cup exit to Leeds United and Premier League defeats to Aston Villa and Fulham.

But the 35-year-old is confident that experience and determination can turn things round for Sir Alex Ferguson’s men.

“You thrive on adversity, the more it happens the better it is for us. We have probably been written off at some stage every season and this year is going to be no different. We just have to prove people wrong again.” Scholes said.

And Scholes is optimistic about the Red Devils’ chances of claiming some silverware this season.

“There is no disaster yet. I wouldn’t say we were bullish. But we are a point behind Chelsea, which is not a bad position even though we have played a game more, We are also in the last 16 of the Champions League and have that important League Cup semi-final against Manchester City. Okay, we had the disappointment of Leeds but every side has one of those every now and then. The fact is, we are still on the hunt for three major trophies. Hopefully we can win at least one.” he asserted.
