Next! Scholes admits United's focus is soon to turn to league title No 19

15 May 2009 16:29
Paul Scholes is adamant that if Manchester United do manage to secure their 18th league title tomorrow, it won't be long before they start plotting to win number 19.   Although he already has eight Premier League championship medals in his collection, Scholes is pretty eager to get his hands on a ninth.    Just a draw, against Arsenal at Old Trafford tomorrow or, failing that, at Hull on May 24, will be enough for the Red Devils to finish top of the pile once more, denying Liverpool the chance to end a drought dating back to 1990.   But, as ever with United, attention will quickly shift. First to a Champions League final date with Barcelona in Rome on May 27 and then to becoming the first team in English football history to win four titles on the trot.   'I never think about the wider picture,' said Scholes. 'I just think about what I am involved in at the minute. Whatever has happened before has gone.   'I am sure if we manage to win the league tomorrow a few days later we will be thinking about next year.'
