Ferdinand builds up Cleverley but asks media not to compare him with Scholes – English Premier League
After failing to replace http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s faith now rests with his team’s youngsters. One of such youngsters is Tomas Cleverley, who caught the eye for Manchester United in last summer’s preseason tour to U.S.A. When the 2010-2011 Premier League season began, Cleverley was shipped off to Wigan Athletic where he played regularly in the previous English Premier League season and gathered crucial experience. In the summer of 2011, the young Manchester United midfielder returned to the club amidst several retirements.
Edwin Van der Sar called it quits along with Scholes and Neville. Ferguson has already replaced both Neville and Van der Sar but Scholes’ heir might come from Manchester United’s own youth ranks rather than a foreign export like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wesley-Sneijder-c36799. Tomas Cleverley once again impressed in the recent Manchester United pre-season tour to U.S.A but he really caught the eye in the Community Shield against Manchester City where United came from behind in the second half to win by three goals to two after overhauling two goal advantage which belonged to their noisy neighbours.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rio-Ferdinand-c31173, one of the most experienced members of the Manchester United squad has come out and touted up Cleverley as he stated that the young Englishman can make a fantastic impact for Manchester United in the 2011-2012 season. Ferdinand who played with Scholes in the past also remarked that comparisons should not be made between Tomas and Scholes as they will put too much pressure on Cleverley to make it big at Manchester United.
Ferdinand stated in his recent interview, "If he gets near to Paul Scholes he will have done well. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tom-c35214 will be his own player. I am sure he would rather be that than titled the new this or that. He has some great traits. He sees the game clearly and plays the ball forward in a nice way. It is a huge pressure to be tagged the next Paul Scholes."
Ferdinand got injured in Manchester United’s 2-1 win over West Bromwich Albion on Sunday, a game which Tomas Cleverley started for the Red Devils alongside http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Anderson-c5565 in the midfield department. The young playmaker held his own throughout the encounter and impressed on several occasions as he provide Manchester United with drive and determination from the centre of the pitch. It will be interesting to see whether Ferguson starts with Cleverley in United’s next league encounter against Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford next weekend but the club’s fans have already taken a huge liking to their young star.
