Paul Scholes singled out one Manchester United star who is guilty of making the same mistake.

On Thursday night, United travelled to Istanbul looking for their first win in this season’s Europa League as they took on Fenerbahce at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium.

Turkish Super Lig giants Fenerbahce, managed by ex-United boss Jose Mourinho, dominated the first half but found themselves behind after Christian Eriksen’s fine finish in the 15th minute.

In the second period, Fenerbahce drew level thanks to Youssef En-Nesyri’s 49th-minute header.

Eventually, the match ended in a 1-1 draw as United moved up to 21st place in the Europa League table.

Speaking after the match, Red Devils legend Scholes pointed out that defender Diogo Dalot is guilty of making the same mistake over and over again.

He said on TNT Sports: “I think Dalot’s guilty of that quite a bit. You know exactly what Saint-Maximin is going to do in that situation.

“He [Dalot] needs to show more urgency, get out to him because you know they’ve got a dangerous player in the box.”

Scholes continued: “It’s a great ball in and he’s not going to miss from there, but Dalot doesn’t do that enough. He’s been okay, one of the better players for United this season, but he needs to get that side of his game right.

“You have to stop that at source otherwise they’re going to score because he’s a real threat.”

Reflecting on United as a whole, the former midfielder added: “I think on the face of it it’s okay, you would probably take that result before the game, it’s a decent draw.

“The two results you have to say: Porto away, tough place to go, good draw. Fenerbahce away, good draw. It’s the home game that was really disappointing, the Twente game, you should be beating those teams.

“They’re in a terrible position in that Europa League, they’ve got to start winning games soon.”
