Manchester United legend Paul Scholes claims a certain Red Devils star does not have the "heart" to play for the club after their UEFA Europa League exit.

The Red Devils crashed out at the quarter-final stage after losing 3-0 to Sevilla in the second leg on Thursday evening.

Anthony Martial started the game for the Red Devils but was picked up another injury in the second half, with Scholes now questioning the forward's long-term future.

"I think Anthony Martial is a talented lad but I think when the going gets tough, when he's really got to dig in, he doesn't quite have the heart for it. He didn't tonight, again.

"I don't know how bad his injury is, he limped off. He could be training tomorrow, he could be out for six months, he's one of them, you just don't know.

"I think in other areas, you look defensively, I think the right-back position is a little bit of a problem for him [Ten Hag]. He's changing all the time between Wan-Bissaka and Dalot, I don't think he's sure on either of them.

"You have to question the goalkeeper, especially tonight. I think Ten Hag eventually will want to play out from the back.

"David de Gea has been a fantastic goalkeeper but he's not a fantastic footballer. You see the pass he played into Harry Maguire, look, it's not a bad pass I know, Harry Maguire wanted it, but you have to read the situation, read what's going on in the stadium, it's not the place.

"Regardless of what the manager wants to play, read the situation, read the atmosphere. That's an experienced player."
