Man Utd ace Anderson: Scholes retirement gives me bigger chance

Anderson is eyeing a bigger chance in Manchester United's midfield following Paul Scholes' retirement.

He is hoping to step up to the mark to show Scholes can be replaced in United starting XI.

"Scholes was amazing, a legend, but it means more opportunity, more space for me," Anderson told Sky Sports News.

"Scholes was one player where I learn a lot, he was unbelievable and for me the best midfielder in the world.

"I think Scholes was very important for the team as he had amazing quality, but I think everyone together can take his position."
