The midfielder claims that although he supported http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Beckham early in his career, he is now looking to emulate Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tom-Cleverley-c35218 has been one of the highly lauded play-makers to have come out of the Manchester United talent system in recent years.
Blessed with intrinsic ability to make a pass or find the back of the net, comparisons between him and younger http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Beckham-c10432 have been ongoing for quite some time now.
And the fact that the player made his England debut this week against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Moldova-c2957 reminded fans of Becks’ first furor on the International arena all those years ago. While the clothing line and celebrity girlfriends maybe similar, Cleverley prefers to play in
the middle of the park, unlike Beckham’s usual role on the wing.
The 23-year-old has now affirmed his support to the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paul-Scholes-c29394.
“I have always followed United and David at the time was a fantastic midfielder. Now he looks up to his evergreen team-mates, saying: Obviously that is my dream to play here as long as I can just like Giggsy and Scholesy. They are both great role models
– as a young player we are lucky to have them at the club.”
Cleverley returns to Old Trafford after gathering significant praise from Roy Hodgson, but the congested fixture list for the World Cup qualifiers have come under intense scrutiny due to their abrupt timing.
Wigan boss http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Martinez-c24468 was the latest manager to argue against their presence, claiming that his players would be tired as they head onto the weekend’s tie against the Red Devils.
“I don’t like the international break, I’ve said it many, many times. This is another example. We’ve got 48 hours to go to one of the biggest games of our season and we don't even know what kind of squad we can count on. That’s for ourselves, that’s for
United too,” the tactician was quoted as saying.
United have never lost to the Latics at home but with an injured front-line there could be a major upset this time around, unless Cleverley and his teammates prove otherwise.
