Manchester United legend Denis Irwin feels the return of Paul Scholes could be decisive in the title race.
Scholes has a 100 per cent record since his comeback.
"Somebody like Paul Scholes will be a calming influence. His experience in the dressing room and on the pitch will be a real boost to the lads. He isn't the most talkative guy but he'll lead by example. It is great to have his experience for the last three or four months," Irwin told ManUtd.com and PA Sport.
