Sir Alex will use duo sparingly

Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted that he will be unlikely to use Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs as much next season; and warned the duo that they must accept younger players will be ready to play more regularly.

"Yes, we have some age issues with Giggs (34) and Scholes (33) obviously," said Ferguson.



"My hopes is in the next few years they will play around 25-30 games apiece, but that depends on performance levels.



"I wouldn't put barriers against them continuing in the way they have done because they both conduct their lives in the right fashion.



"Injury-wise Paul has had injuries of a more serious nature than Ryan.



"I think Ryan because of his physique - he's different from Paul in the sense that he's such a slim lad - could really play until he is 38, and it would be here."
