(GSM) – Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has not set any limits for his playing career despite approaching his 36th birthday.

The former England midfielder is showing no signs of aging and he admits he feels as fresh as ever and wants to carry on playing.

“I haven’t set any limits,” said Scholes after his starring role in Monday’s 3-0 demolition of Newcastle.

“I’ll just keep going, hopefully keep playing well and getting in the team and just see where it goes from there.

“It depends on performances and how you play. I did go through last season thinking this might be the last time I played against this team or stuff like that. But I just don’t know. My performances will decide when I finish.

“At 35 I thought that would be it. From being young and first getting into the squad, you just presume everyone will finish at 35 and that’s it. Whatever you do after that is a bonus.

“At the end of last season I felt okay and hopefully this season I will do as well.”

    Scholesy shouldn’t be thinking of retirement anyway. He should be thinking of scoring that killer goal against Fulham on Sunday.
