Sherwood tells McTominay: You're far better than Man Utd bench

Former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood feels Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay deserves better press.

McTominay scored four goals in two Scotland internationals this past week.

"McTominay's two goals [against Spain] were outstanding," Sherwood told talkSPORT.

"For me, he really is [underrated and undervalue]. I don't think he has really settled into a position. Is he a six or an eight? But you have to let him play. A lot of his game is about energy and getting up and down the field. He's a box-to-box player.

"Is there a place for him at Man United? I think he needs to have a good look at his career now. He needs to play on a regular basis because he is that good."
