Fernandes Needs To Leave European Football For Saudi Arabia - Scholes

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes says Bruno Fernandes can no longer be trusted as captain and should leave European football for Saudi Arabia after his public criticism of manager Michael Carrick. Scholes' blast came after Fernandes questioned Carrick's tactics following United's humiliating 4-1 Champions League defeat to Como last Wednesday.

Asked if Carrick got it wrong tactically, Fernandes said: "That's on the manager and staff to see it, not me." The comments enraged Scholes, who called them "unforgivable" on his podcast The Good, The Bad & The Football with Nicky Butt. "What Bruno Fernandes said last week, I think that's unforgivable," Scholes said.

"How can Bruno Fernandes be trusted to be captain of any team he ever goes to now? I think he probably needs to get away from European football and just go to Saudi, just get out the way.

I don't think any manager, any member of staff can trust him after that."
