Paulo Scholes disse Manchester United It looked like an “uncoached team” after that A complete defeat for Tottenham 3-0 And the question about the mission Matthias de Ligt.
The Red Devils' terrible start to the 2024/25 campaign continues at Old Trafford, where Brennan Johnson opened the tackle after just three minutes To send Spurs support into ecstasy.
Bruno Fernandes saw the green card straight away Due to a reckless foul on James Maddison in the 42nd minute, the situation went from bad to worse for the hosts, as Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke scored twice in the second half to seal the match.
The result means United remain 12th in the Premier League table and will put intense pressure on Erik ten Hag to get a result away to Aston Villa next weekend.
“You don't know how to play,” said Scholes, the former United and England midfielder, not SuperSport.
“You don't know how they're going to approach games, you're going to play without counterattacking or you're going to sit back or try to get the ball in any game. We have no idea. It feels like football time without training.
It's been two years and a few years… From the first week Ange Postecoglou came in, we probably knew Tottenham were doing it and they were doing it now.
“We've been there for two years and a bit (not United), and as we said, it's a time without training.
“The players today looked dead, they looked flat. They said: 'I don't know what to do'. There is no enthusiasm for playing football and they can only play on the training field.”
“Some of the positions people take in the field are sometimes crazy.”
Scholes criticized United's latest signing, crediting the fact that De Ligt's new £43m prize is not a good thing for Harry Maguire, who has only started twice in the league this season.
“When you recruit players, you expect them to be much better than the ones you see. I don't see a group of players that make a big difference,” Scholes said.
“Let's say De Ligt replaces Maguire, but there's not much difference in that.
Asked whether De Ligt represented a whopping £50m fee in relation to the club's former captain, Maguire, Scholes replied: “No, certainly not.”
Scholes hopes United's players will stop offering 'apologies' and instead find a way to start getting results before Ten Hag's position becomes unsustainable.
“The players feel like they are experiencing something like United paying a lot of money,” he added.
“We need to stop making excuses and get on the training field and find a way to play.
“Find something, give us something!”
