Paul Scholes has moaned about Manchester United’s ‘very disappointing performance’ after a scoreless first half against Real Betis.
The clash between Betis and United remained goalless at the midway point of a first half where the hosts began brightly.
Juanmi struck a glorious chance wide early on and 41-year-old Joaquin saw a stunning effort hit the post.
And the former Red Devils midfielder, 48, was quick to criticise the Old Trafford outfit saying they have ‘only got to keep the ball for 90 minutes’.
‘Ten Hag will be very disappointed with the performance. For some reason they’ve got into a fight with Betis,’ Scholes told BT Sport.

‘Just show some composure. You’ve only got to keep the ball for 90 minutes.’
Owen Hargreaves added: ‘They’ve been fortunate that they aren’t a goal down. Why is there is so much space? They’ve invited so much pressure.’
It comes after Scholes urged United to sign Lautaro Martinez from Inter Milan because he ‘would suit Erik ten Hag’s style of play’ better than Napoli star Victor Osimhen.
Scholes said: ‘I don’t think Kane will leave Tottenham. I think it’s difficult to deal with Dan Levy.
‘I think Osimhen is a great player, but I think he is more suited for Chelsea. I think Lautaro Martinez from Inter Milan would suit Ten Hag’s style of play.’
Argentina forward Martinez struck a formidable partnership with Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku under Antonio Conte during Inter’s 2020-21 title-winning campaign in Italy.
Last year, the 25-year-old was linked with Chelsea and Tottenham – where he would have joined up with former boss Conte.
Osimhen has cemented his status as one of the world’s most potent strikers at Napoli this season and is the top scorer in Serie A.
He has scored 23 goals in 29 appearances across all competitions and is expected to be in high demand once the summer transfer window opens.
