Paul Scholes blasts Louis van Gaal

Paul Scholes has hit out at new Manchester United boss Lous van Gaal and the signings that he has made this summer.

United have spent ÂŁ60million on Luke Shaw and Ander Herrera this summer, but just missed out on signing Arsenal centre-back Thomas Vermaelan,

Van Gaal is facing frustration in his pursuit of Sporting Lisbon star Marcos Rojo, while moves for Arturo Vidal, Angel Di Maria and Daley Blind have not progressed.

And Scholes believes United’s failings in the transfer market mean the title race will be between just Manchester City and Chelsea.

“I think the title is between City and Chelsea, they’ve both made decent signings,” Scholes said.

“The next two places are between United, Liverpool and Arsenal. United will be looking for a better season than the last and that shouldn’t be too difficult.

“I’m sure Van Gaal would have liked to have signed more players. Midfield is where I thought they might have brought in a couple.”

Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand and Patrice Evra all left this summer and Scholes is surprised they have not been properly replaced.

“(Toni) Kroos goes for ÂŁ20million and (Cesc) Fabregas to Chelsea, I thought they would have been in for those type of players but it doesn’t look like they were,” Scholes added.

“Remember the players they have lost – Rio, Vidic, Evra, Giggs. Massive playrs who have won 30 titles between them.

“It’s only Shaw and Herrera who have come in and (Juan) Mata and (Marouane) Fellaini who haven’t won the league. I just worry that City and Chelsea have a bit too much for them.”
