Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways when they face Wigan Athletic in the third round of the FA Cup at the DW Stadium on Monday.
Paul Scholes spots worrying Manchester United trend that is haunting Erik ten Hag
23.12.2023 - 17:55 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Paul Scholes issued a damning verdict on misfiring Manchester United after the Reds drew another blank in a listless defeat to West Ham.
Erik ten Hag's side were beaten 2-0 in the capital to drop below the Hammers in the table. It was the fourth straight game in which United have failed to score and the Reds have won just one of their last seven matches in all competitions.
Jarrod Bowen and Mohammed Kudus scored twice in six second-half minutes to earn David Moyes' side the three points. For United, it was another disappointing day and Scholes felt Ten Hag's side looked lost and bereft of ideas.

"It’s no goals in four games now, and it’s becoming a bit embarrassing," he told TNT Sports after the game when assessing United's display. "In the second half it really fizzled out and there was no creativity.
"You look at the West Ham team and you are thinking of the partnerships and the connections they have, they look like a team that can score goals and create. Then you look at Manchester United’s front five, it’s like they don’t know each other and they have not been on the training pitch every day.
"When I was playing, did the manager ever tell me how to score a goal? I don’t think he did. Did he tell me how to pass it to a front player? Possibly.
"You cannot create connections unless you are on the training pitch every single day and getting to know each other. I felt that in our team, we knew what each other's strengths were. In this team, I don’t think they know how to play together and it’s costing them."
