Paul Scholes Questions Amorim’s Faith in Man United Squad After Lyon Stalemate

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has suggested that manager Ruben Amorim is dissatisfied with his current squad following their dramatic 2-2 draw against Lyon in the Europa League quarter-final first leg.

The Red Devils appeared set for a crucial victory after Joshua Zirkzee’s 88th-minute header, but a costly error from goalkeeper André Onana—spilling a stoppage-time shot for Rayan Cherki to equalize—denied them the win.

Scholes’ Blunt Assessment

Speaking on TNT Sports after the match, Scholes disagreed with Amorim’s post-match claim that his team is improving with each game, instead arguing that the Portuguese coach seems frustrated with his players.

“I don’t think he believes it,” Scholes told presenter Jules Breach. “I don’t think he likes his team—he knows he hasn’t got a great squad, and he wants better. You can see it in his touchline demeanor; he always looks disappointed. His tone suggests he’s unhappy with what he has.”

Scholes added that while United have been solid defensively under Amorim, their lack of attacking threat highlights the need for reinforcements. “Everyone knows he needs better players if United are to compete at the highest level. Right now, they’re sacrificing creativity for stability.”

Amorim’s Mixed Reaction

Despite the late collapse, Amorim refused to single out Onana and urged his team to focus on the second leg at Old Trafford.

“We’re disappointed not to take a lead into the home leg, but we must move forward,” he said. “We controlled parts of the game but must be more clinical. Mistakes happen—it’s a team responsibility, not just one player’s fault.”

He also defended his side’s progress, stating, “We’re improving game by game, but there’s still work to do.”

Tie Finely Balanced Ahead of Second Leg

While the late equalizer was a blow, United remain slight favorites heading into next Thursday’s decider at Old Trafford. However, Onana’s erratic form and United’s struggles in front of goal continue to raise questions about their ability to advance.

Scholes’ comments reflect growing scrutiny over Amorim’s long-term vision for the squad, with the manager likely pushing for significant reinforcements in the summer. For now, though, his immediate task is ensuring United don’t let another European opportunity slip away.
