Man Utd veteran Scholes happy he chose to return

Manchester United veteran Paul Scholes is delighted he chose to end his retirement 12 months ago.

Scholes has spoken of how glad he is that he decided to come out of retirement, with a year having now passed since his comeback appearance against Manchester City.

"I just wanted to come back playing, and I'm glad I did," the 38-year-old said.

"At the time there were a lot of injuries and I thought maybe I could help, so I tried to.

"The second half of last season I played quite often. Unfortunately we just fell short of winning the league; that was disappointing, but I'm glad I came back."
