Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has described covering Sunday's 6-3 derby day defeat to Manchester City as a pundit as being "w***."
United, who made the short trip to the Etihad Stadium on a run of four consecutive Premier League victories, were outclassed by their cross-city rivals, finding themselves 4-0 down by half time. Phil Foden and Erling Haaland each scored twice before the interval, leaving Erik ten Hag's side with a mountain to climb.
The Reds, albeit in vein, threatened a comeback after the break, pulling a goal back through a stunner from Antony, but Haaland netted his third and City's fifth to pile more misery on what was already a very sparse away end. Foden then added a sixth to complete the rout.
