Giggs and Scholes seem to be flying at present, not sure what's happened with Carrick though, he has gone from first choice to a bench player??
Both Carrick and Anderson had a fall out with Fergie over pre-season about their form and their training. Whereas all the rumours were that Anderson was going to walk out after not been played in the Charity Shield, after getting dropped and then getting back in the side he hasn't done too badly, so has deserved his place when picked.
Scholes has had a decent start to the season and so apart from when suspended he has given Fergie a choice between Anderson and himself. Unfortunately, Carrick was given a chance v Burnley and was very poor, including his penalty, he obviously hasn't impressed Fergie enough in training / in the bits of games he's had since to overhaul Anderson or Scholes. Scholes can't play every game every week, so ATM when he isn't playing Anderson will.
Obviously, the other CM spot is Fletcher's, nobody else at the club is good enough / consistent enough ATM to take that spot, it'll be interesting to see how Fergie plays it when / if Hargreaves gets back to match fitness, because it will be mightly cruel to drop Fletcher on his form of the past couple of years.
