UNCOVERED: Paul scholes never wants to see erik ten hag repeat bruno fernandes experiment - The Untold Story

Paul Scholes has urged Erik ten Hag to avoid playing Bruno Fernandes on the wing after Manchester United's 7-0 loss to Liverpool.

Ten Hag's side were humiliated by their bitter rivals at Anfield last Sunday after the Dutch coach deployed Wout Weghorst in attacking midfield - the position Fernandes usually occupies. That forced the Portuguese playmaker out wide, with adverse results.

Fernandes was heavily criticised for his performance against Liverpool, with Gary Neville labelling him a "disgrace". The 28-year-old was restored to his primary position on Thursday night and made the most of that nod by scoring in a 4-1 win against Real Betis.
