Former Red Devils star Paul Scholes, 46, was unimpressed with his side’s remarkable win in the Champions League comeback against Atalanta, warning that Man Utd could not afford such a performance against their Premier League rivals.
A lot of work to be done
For the second straight game in Europe, Solskjaer’s manager’s men rallied from a losing position to take all three points late, winning 3-2, losing 2-0 halfway. However, Paul believes there is a lot of work to be done, especially after showing them during the difficult opening of 45 minutes.
What did Paul Scholes say?
Paul Scholes said he gets all the excitement, but he just didn’t like that first half and thinks the first half has been postponed from the second. Paul thinks if they played on a better team, they would be out of sight. That first half was worrying. It looked like anything but a team, it lacked unity – it was a worrying sign.
Can they play Liverpool like that? Never in a million years. Can you play Man City like that? Can you play like that for the top team in the Champions League? Paul Scholes doesn’t want to sound like a party animal, but the first half was a big concern for him. Ole defended his side’s display, while admitting that he was angry that he conceded twice.
Paul said that he also thought they played well in the first half. Two chances, two goals. It must stop if they want to survive. They have a habit of doing it in this club. Paul thought they played well and they scored a goal out of nothing, and then another set site. But they never stopped believing and kept walking.
According to Paul Scholes, don’t disrespect the players. They play as Man Utd and know that they are the happiest men in the world. They are the happiest men in the world today because they can play for Man Utd. This is what so many millions of boys and girls want to achieve.
