MUMBAI: Paul Scholes should play on beyond this season after a shock return from retirement that has saved Manchester United a fortune in the January transfer window, according to the club’s ex-captain Gary Neville. Scholes, who retired at the end of last season, made a winning return for United in their 3-2 FA Cup victory at Manchester City. “Scholes should still be playing football for a good two years,” said Neville. “It’s a great boost for United that he comes back and plays at this time when the team has suffered badly with injuries. We have seen so many players playing out of position in the midfield.”
