Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel says Scott McTominay deserves better treatment from manager Erik ten Hag.

McTominay jumped from the bench to score twice in injury-time for United's 2-1 win against Brentford.

Schmeichel later said: “He's got the ability to do that. I don't understand what coaches are doing. Scott McTominay was up for sale all summer and I don't understand that.

“He's a fantastic player, you need utility players. You need players that can play different positions, that can come from the bench and change the course of the game and he's definitely one of them.

“You bring in players and you sit there with big question marks, why is that player there?"
