I won’t hide my honest opinion about him because he’s too horrible and does not deserve to wear this Red shirt”- Man United Legend Paul Scott tells Ruben Amorim to drop ‘horrible’ £27M after costing them to lose a game in the Premier League for the first time against Crystal Palace at Home – Not Zirkzee and Not Hujlund This particular had less touches than Goalkeeper on the pitch against Palace,Ten Hag once complained about His laziness before He left and now He is costing us again…..

Scholes’ Scathing Criticism After United’s Shock Home Defeat
Following Manchester United’s unexpected home loss to Crystal Palace, club legend Paul Scholes didn’t hold back in his post-match assessment.
“I won’t sugarcoat my opinion—he’s been dreadful and has no business wearing this jersey,” Scholes reportedly said. “This was a crucial match, and yet again, he was completely invisible. He had fewer touches than the goalkeeper—how is that even possible at Manchester United?”
Although Scholes didn’t explicitly name the player, sources close to the club suggest he was referring to a midfielder who has been under fire for poor performances in recent months.
“This isn’t the first time,” Scholes continued. “Even Ten Hag criticized his work ethic before leaving, and now he’s proving to be a major weakness again. He doesn’t put in the effort, he doesn’t show passion for the badge, and he’s been a liability all season. If United want to get back to competing at the highest level, Ruben Amorim needs to drop him immediately.”
The £27M Signing Under Fire
The identity of the player in question has sparked heated debates among fans, with many speculating that Scholes was referring to a midfielder signed for approximately £27 million—a player who has struggled to justify his price tag.
During the defeat against Palace, this player registered the fewest touches of any outfield player and had little to no influence on the game. United’s midfield was completely outclassed, allowing Palace to take full advantage and secure a historic victory at Old Trafford.
Amorim’s Big Decision: Stick or Twist?
With Ruben Amorim expected to take over as United’s new manager, he faces a significant decision—should he continue giving this struggling player opportunities, or should he heed Scholes’ advice and drop him from the squad?
Frustration is mounting among United supporters, and patience is wearing thin with each disappointing performance. Many believe that for Amorim to rebuild the squad into a title-challenging force, he must make bold, ruthless decisions.
As the summer transfer window approaches, calls for United to part ways with underperforming players are growing louder. If Scholes’ comments hold any weight, this £27M signing could be one of the first casualties of the club’s new era.
One thing remains certain—United’s problems run deep, and without major changes, more disappointing results could be on the horizon.
