Manchester United legend Paul Scholes criticises Bruno Fernandes for publicly criticising the team after a 2-0 defeat to Hull City. The Manchester Evening News and Times of India both report Scholes telling Fernandes to “keep your mouth shut,” arguing the midfielder should not have aired concerns publicly following the match.
Both outlets link the discussion to wider post-match comments from United players. Times of India adds that Scholes points to Fernandes’s own performance in the defeat, and also references Luke Shaw’s remarks, saying they raise questions about how prepared the team is under manager Michael Carrick. The broader context in the reports is that Scholes’s comments reflect concern that public criticism could affect the manager and the squad’s internal cohesion.
While the articles differ in emphasis—one focusing on Scholes’s direct message to Fernandes, the other adding detail about Carrick-related concerns—the core points they share are Scholes’s criticism of Fernandes’s public slamming and the fact it follows United’s 2-0 loss to Hull City.
