Paul Scholes advises Bruno Fernandes to ‘take ownership’ for Man Utd’s draw with Galatasaray following interview with TNT Sports
Manchester United’s draw with Galatasaray was a frustrating result for the team, and former player Paul Scholes had some strong words for Bruno Fernandes in the aftermath. Despite the Portuguese midfielder admitting to his mistakes, Scholes was clear in his belief that it was time for Fernandes to “take responsibility” for his errors. The match was a six-goal thriller, with United twice taking the lead only to be pegged back on both occasions. With their Champions League hopes hanging in the balance, the pressure is on for Fernandes and his teammates to deliver in their upcoming fixtures.
In a thrilling match that ended in a 3-3 draw, ex-Manchester United legend Paul Scholes had some strong words for Bruno Fernandes. Scholes urged the United captain to take responsibility for his mistakes, pointing out that Fernandes gave away two costly free-kicks that resulted in goals for the opposition, including one from former Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech.
Fernandes, in his post-match interview, admitted to his errors, acknowledging that the team had too many chances and made too many mistakes. He expressed disappointment in their performance in the Champions League, stating that they need to do better in controlling games.
Scholes, however, was not sympathetic, calling on Fernandes and the entire team to step up and take responsibility. He criticized the defense for being all over the place and the goalkeeper for making mistakes, emphasizing that the team cannot keep clean sheets and that they make the game difficult for themselves with unnecessary errors.
With United now at the bottom of their group, the pressure is on for them to secure wins in their upcoming matches in order to progress in the Champions League. Bruno Fernandes and the rest of the team will need to heed Scholes’ advice and step up their game if they hope to advance.
