Man Utd veteran Scholes: Wolves will have go at us

Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes is wary of the threat from Wolves today.

Scholes is expecting Wolves to attack United on Saturday, just as they did 12 days ago in the Carling Cup fourth round.

"I know they haven't had the best of starts this season but they've got players who can hurt you," Scholes told manutd.com. "They showed they are capable of scoring goals at Old Trafford - they managed two - and I'm sure they'll have a go on Saturday as well."

The 35-year-old Reds midfielder also shrugged off suggestions that Wolves are an overly aggressive side, claiming teams simply employ different styles of play.

"There are some teams that might not play the most attractive football but you have to find a way of winning games," Scholes added.

"Their managers want to get the best out of them and find the best way of winning games and they do it their own way. It's up to us to be able to play against that and find a way of winning.

"I think over the years, especially when we've played Arsenal, we'd had to try and be aggressive and get about them because they'll pass the ball around you otherwise. I don't think it's any different to what teams do [against us]."
