Paul Scholes described Manchester United as "weird" after watching them against Luton Town on Sunday afternoon.

United raced into a two goal lead inside seven minutes at Kenilworth Road, the fastest they have ever achieved the feat in the Premier League.

Rasmus Hojlund backed a quickfire brace, including a stunning chested finish from an Alejandro Garnacho effort that looked to be going wide.

But then Carlton Morris reduced the deficit for the Hatters, bravely heading home past Andre Onana after a deflected Tahith Chong effort.

Luton refused to roll over and despite a strong start, United stopped playing.

Both Casemiro and Harry Maguire were brought off at half-time having been cautioned - though plenty felt as though the former should have seen red.

And the latest display from United confused Scholes, who cannot understand United's up and down, unpredictable tendencies.

Taking to Instagram, he wrote: "Weird team Utd... Reckon they could be the only team that could win five nil and get hammered!!!"

Scholes regularly vents on Instagram and notably destroyed Jesse Lingard on the platform before he managed to find a new club in South Korea.

He fumed: "Are you just gonna f**k about in the gym or are you gonna actually play football?"

The comment received a response from Lingard, who commented with smiling emojis.

More recently the TNT Sports pundit ranted about Oleksandr Zinchenko and Arsenal's tactic whereby he comes into midfield from left-back.

Scholes, one of the greatest midfielders in Premier League history, was not having it.

He ranted: "A full-back coming into central midfield is an insult to a central midfield player... I think he/she should be told to get the f*** back out there.... night."
