Paul Scholes returned his verdict on the birth between Nemanja Matic and Andre Onana – and suggested that the two players were wrong.
The two stars, whose teams will fight Thursday evening, indirectly faced the construction of Manchester United against Lyon during the first leg of the quarter -final confrontation of the Europa League.
Matic expressed himself in Onana saying that Lyon is a “very good team”, but that “I think we are better than them”, marking the shot “ one of the worst goalkeepers in the history of Man United ”.
Onana then went to social networks to turn around, publishing: “I would never be disrespectful towards another club. We know that tomorrow will be a difficult match against a strong opponent. We focus on preparing a performance to make our fans proud.
“At least, I raised trophies with the largest club in the world. Some cannot say the same thing.
Scholes has now given its point of view on events, but has not supported players in terms of disagreement.

Scholes said he would not have said to rush the feathers, but said that Matic “ reacted excessively “
“I don’t think it’s something I would have done, try to provoke a team by telling you better than them,” said the former Man United midfielder on TNT Sports of Onana’s comments. “It’s not wise, but they have to play.
“Matic reacted slightly excessively, it was a bit aggressive, but I don’t mind a little needle.”
Karen Carney added: “ I am emptied that he does not start but thanana must intensify and assure me that he leaves with a white sheet, he is mounted to check the net and the fans gave him a stick, he needs a solid performance to save him. ”
The couple has never played together, but they come in the midst of an onana meticulous examination following a series of large -scale errors since they joined United in 2023 for 47 million pounds from Inter Milan.
Matic spent five seasons at Old Trafford, accumulating 189 appearances, although he is unable to rely on the two Premier League titles, the FA Cup, and the Carabao Cup he won with Chelsea.
Onana, on the other hand, has won the two national cuts so far and could add the Europa League to this transport.
According to OPTA, Onana has the worst percentage of leaves and the second percentage of backup of any united goalkeeper to have played more than 900 minutes since the 2003-2004 season.
Cameroonian conceded 99 goals in 69 appearances in the Premier League, saved 70.1% of the shots with which it was confronted and kept a white sheet 18 times – a percentage of 26.1.

Only Anders Lindegaard has a worse safeguarding percentage among the goalkeeper group.
United is the 13th in the Premier League and has been on the right track for its worst finish since the change of the elite brand in 1992.
Lyon, meanwhile, is fifth at Ligue 1 and could easily finish as high as second, although there have been concerns about their financial situation.
