Boss hails Anderson

Oliviera Anderson has been hailed as the natural successor for Paul Scholes. The rising young midfield star Anderson has broken into United first-team far quicker than expected following his £19million move from Porto last summer.
Anderson starred in the recent 4-0 FA Cup rout of Arsenal, impressed in the 1-1 Champions League draw at Lyon, and is set to start in the crucial Premier League clash at Fulham at Saturday.
“Anderson has exploded on to the scene for us and been absolutely phenomenal,” said Fergie.
“We’re really pleased with his progress and the evidence is there for all to see.
“When Scholes got his last injury it opened the door for Anderson, and we discovered a boy who had talent.
“He isn’t entirely like Scholes, although there are similarities. But he’s more of an aggressive running player.”
