Paul Scholes calls Mikel Arteta "a disgrace" after actions in Arsenal's win over Man Utd

Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has torn into Mikel Arteta, labelling the Arsenal manager a "disgrace" for his actions before Arsenal's penalty against the Red Devils.

Arsenal won 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium, with Bukayo Saka scoring a penalty for the hosts and Bruno Fernandes missing one for the visitors. However, Scholes wasn't impressed by Arteta's antics in the lead-up to the Gunners' spot-kick.

There was plenty of fall-out both during and after the game, with Mohamed Elneny coming in for praise and United full-backs Alex Telles and Diogo Dalot bearing the brunt of the criticism. The result all but ended United's hopes of a top four finish, but some of Scholes' post-match comments focused on the opposing manager rather than his former club's flaws.
