Reds head Stateside on Tour 2014 Paul Scholes says Manchester Uniteds Tour 2014, presented by Aon, promises to be both an enjoyable and beneficial trip for the players. The Reds legend has been involved in a number of pre-season tours to the States and he travelled to Miami this week to help launch this years visit. While summer training can be intense for the players, Scholes insists the US provides the perfect backdrop with top-class facilities in some exciting cities. The visits to the States have always been great and its a country we always enjoy going to, Paul told us. The facilities and stadiums are great and we always get really well looked after – the people cant do enough for you. Weve got eight million fans in America so to be able to play games in front of them is fantastic. The Reds could face some stern tests as one of eight teams involved in the International Champions Cup. Also involved are Real Madrid, Internazionale, AS Roma, AC Milan, Manchester City, Olympiacos and Liverpool, and Scholes insists playing against strong opposition will further aid the squads preparations for the new campaign. The players prefer playing top-class teams. There are a lot of massive teams involved and that will be something all the players and staff will look forward to, he added. Pre-season is the time when you get your fitness, the plan is always to get as fit as you can and the manager will use as many players as he can on tour to make sure everybody is ready for that first game of the season.
