On Tuesday night, Scholes used his pundit role during BT Sport’s build-up for the Champions League encounter at Old Trafford match to launch another tirade at the under-fire United manager.

Here are his quotes in full:

“It’s a bad situation. I am sat here actually surprised he survived after Saturday, the performance was that bad.

“He’s coming out in press conferences and constantly having a go at players, he is having a go at people above him because he’s not getting what he wants.

“I think his mouth is probably out of control and I think he is embarrassing the club.”

Scholes won 11 Premier League titles as well as the Champions League twice under Sir Alex Ferguson, including the treble in 1999.
