'I'm worried' - Paul Scholes makes brutal prediction about Manchester United in Champions League

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Paul Scholes thinks Manchester United's fragility in big atmospheres will see them crash out of the Champions League before the knockout rounds.

United have an awful record in away games with Erik ten Hag in charge and it's been suggested the current group of players cannot perform in raucous atmospheres after a string of embarrassing results last season.

Ten Hag's side were comfortably defeated in away games against Liverpool, Newcastle and Sevilla, for example. United have the challenge of playing FC Copenhagen at the Parken Stadium on Wednesday night and that clash is a must-win game following defeats against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray in the group stage.

You should never lose to a team like that at home. The way United were playing, confidence was low - it wasn’t a big surprise. “They were very lucky at home against Copenhagen, they didn’t play very well at all.
