Man Utd legend Scholes blasts Bruno: Take responsibility!

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has blasted club captain Bruno Fernandes.

The Portuguese creative midfielder got a goal and assist in United's 3-3 draw against Galatasaray in Turkey on Wednesday night.

The Champions League group stage result means United are still bottom of their table.

Speaking to TNT Sports after the match, the Portugal international said: “It was another game where we could have closed the game. We had too many chances, as I've said, and mistakes by ourselves. It's too bad, to be honest. I don't want to be too negative, but what we've been doing in the Champions League is not enough."

Scholes responded: “I know in his interview he is talking about mistakes, but he made two big mistakes tonight by giving two stupid fouls away that led to two goals.

“The full team, including himself as the captain, have to take responsibility - it's a game they should win. They just cannot keep clean sheets - the defense is all over the place, the keeper is making mistakes, Bruno giving away cheap free-kicks."
