Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has issued a damning indictment of his old club.

Scholes, who now works as a pundit on British TV, was not afraid to share his opinions on Wednesday night.

United were beaten 4-3 away from home by German champions Bayern Munich in the Champions League group stages.

Speaking on TNT Sports, Scholes said: There is a weakness to them.

There is a soft underbelly and they do seem to collapse a bit when things are going wrong.

They scored three goals and that is good, but I felt Bayern could then turn it on and score another.

I thought there was a big distance between the teams, in that second half especially.

First half I thought they did well but still conceded two goals through a lack of concentration.

There is experience in the team but I don't think it is being used. Concentration in Europe is so important, once you concede one goal, it can turn into two and three.

None of those center halves are saying "look Casemiro and Eriksen get in here".

Are Casemiro and Eriksen saying to the wide players come in next to me, lets calm the game down?"
