Paul Scholes highlighted Manchester United’s failing attack as their biggest issue after Saturday’s defeat.
The Red Devils were comfortably beaten 2-0 by West Ham at the London Stadium early Saturday evening as they remain in 8th place for Christmas.
Jarrod Bowen opened the scoring after a beautiful pass from Lucas Paqueta before the Brazilian set Mohammed Kudus up for the second just minutes later.
Speaking after the game, Scholes outlined their lack of attacking threat as their biggest issue.

“Goalscoring is a big issue. Four games without a goal, without creating anything, really… the attacking players have to step up, bring some confidence, and bring some threat to the team.” [TNT]
