Scholes attacked the space and look what it led to.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
I say bring back more legends if that gets goals...
perfect timing too.
That goal meant a lot for a lot of reasons.
Rooney's finishing has been off but he hasn't been shite at all.
Great movement and some fantastic passing.

Maybe, instead of using some other idiots hatred for one of our players to justify our own hatred of another of our players, we should all stop being a bunch of ridiculous, pouty, spoilt bastards and actually support the entire team?
This thread's a laughable disgrace.
Great vision by Rooney not to shoot there. Scholes gets the goal but has been poor. Although a decent first half by the team as a whole.
Scholes really is such a legend! That was a vital goal as the longer it went on 0-0 the deeper Bolton were going to dig in, should open things up a little now and let the tide flow 
RE: Rooney, he's not having a good game because he is clearly being asked to play deep in order to give some legs to Scholes and Carrick.

BBC being gingerist.
He has become rather predictable today, sometimes you can just tell he's away to take a bad touch or give the ball away.
Any streams available?
hoping to catch the rest of the game.
cheers

Can't believe I missed his first goal on his comeback because the stream went down!
Flying hell!
Haven't looked very good, but certainly good enough to beat Bolton, if we can keep things sewn up at the back.

Scholes only has one less league goal than Andy Carroll.
add1 for Scholes
He was shit for large parts of the game. Played some good passes (including two important ones for the goal), but he lost the ball way too often.
Eh? What game are you watching, I thought he's been bossing with his passing.
I didn't think Rooney was playing as shite as everyone was making out. He always makes a few basic errors every game but overall he's been okay.
Welbeck was class whenever he had the ball, just a shame he didn't have it much towards the last 10 minutes of the half.
Carrick has made a few great passes and been very good too.
SCHOLES.

Yep. Glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks he's not been shite.
It's saying Bogdan on BBC Sport? Hint of an OG?
EDIT: Think its a feck up on their behalf

HT:Good first half for United.Nice to see Scholes get one.Nani, Welbeck,Carrick have all played well.Can see Bolton conceding more in the second half.
Just wait till these rubbish modern day footballers get a load of Our Michael Owen.
great timing to score, a bit frustrated it took us so long to score and not kill bolton off though.
Welbeck has been excellent. Rooney has been average, but a lot of over-exaggerated shite in here regarding his performance.
And they're tied on assists.
I read so much crap in the week, in the press and even on this site from our own fans.
Shove that goal up where it hurts you hard. 38 years old and yet there he was in the 45th minute of a tiring half on the 6 yard line ready to slot in. He still has legs and stamina!!!
Great display that half, he was quietly efficient, playing the ball everywhere it needed to go, without being noticed too much (ie detected by Boltons midfield). When he plays, just like Xavi, he always finds himself space and so creates himself the time to think and make the right pass ... his decision making is just amazing.
Having him back is just so wonderful I don't care if we sign Modric, Gotz, even Xavi, having Paul Scholes around can never do you any harm, and most of the time gives you an extra dimension.
They're just idiots.
Really good half that.
Thought everyone played well, even Rooney up until the miss, then he lost his way a bit.
Welbeck has been superb, looks like he's going to be our main striker for some time to come.
Carrick and Valencia great too.

Rooney was good until he missed the penalty, then he went a bit crap.
And Carrick's passing today is
And Carrick's passing today is
a good half to be honest. Need to use our wide men more. Valencia and rafael are combining well. Rooney needs to lift his game. And Evans to score at least from one of his forward runs.
thank you for that common sense post.
OG ?? are BBC having a laugh
Somebody's bound to pick him out from his runs. He did it nearly every attack the last 10 minutes.
the reserve bolton goallie look good for them.
Rooney has been found out as a penalty taker. He simply just blasts it mid height in one of the corners and the goalies know it.
He has had a terrible back pass in the first 3 mins, his normal long range passing has been off and also mis placed a 5 yard pass on the edge of their box which created a counter attack for them! Plus misplaced some other passes that have not resulted in a Bolton attack. Take the ginger tinted glasses off!
That said great run into the box and gets a crucial goal!
It was Rooney passing that made the goal , there is much more to Rooney than scoring goals
Let Nani take them.
