Manchester United's Champions League exit to Atletico Madrid was the icing on a pretty terrible cake for the fanbase this season. Many had accepted it would be an uphill battle to compete after the dismissal of the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer but, as football fans, the hope always has to be there.
The defeat has resulted in outrage online from fans and former United players alike. And in the post-match show on BT Sport, Rio Ferdinand, Paul Scholes and Owen Hargreaves all gave their thoughts. Scholes was the most vocal, continuing down a similar line of analysis that he has taken up over the past few months.
He said: “How [Ralf Rangnick] was chosen to be manager of this club, I don’t know. Getting a proper coach for this team is a massive thing. There is some real talent in this squad."
