August 10th: Former Manchester United legend Paul Scholes expressed his concerns about the team's midfield and defense in an interview with The Overlap.

Scholes stated, "I've heard many United fans say they're excited for the new season, but I find it difficult to understand. We've mentioned before that United's midfield is too weak, opponents can easily bypass our midfield. I believe there are still some problem areas on the pitch for United."

"You mentioned Varane, yes, he's only 18 years old. Lindelof and Bailly have both been injured, and Varane himself had injury issues towards the end of last season. Bailly was impressive during his time at United, but he also frequently got injured."

"But I'm also worried about goalkeeper Onana. Even after watching a few pre-season matches, I'm still extremely concerned about him."

These words from Scholes highlight the key issues that he believes need to be addressed by Manchester United. With concerns over the midfield's ability to protect the defense, as well as injury problems in the center-back positions, Scholes also doubts the capability of goalkeeper Onana. These challenges could pose a significant hurdle for Manchester United in the upcoming season.
