Man Utd boss Ferguson: No deterioration in Scholes game

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson says he can't see any signs of Paul Scholes' game dropping off with age.

Scholes has won plenty of plaudits for the way he has started this season.

"If he looks stronger it's possibly because he went through last season without picking up any serious injury," Ferguson said.

"He's done well, because he's had plenty of injuries over the years and been out for three- or four-month spells. His fitness was great last year, as the season went on he got better and better, and he's carried on the same way. He and Ryan Giggs have yet to miss a training session and we've had 40 since the start of pre-season. I don't know how long he can carry on, but I can't see any real deterioration in his game."
