Manchester United legend Paul Scholes admitted he is disappointed Rasmus Hojlund is not starting in the Europa League on Thursday night to face Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce despite having reservations about the striker earlier this season.

Hojlund scored just his second goal of the campaign after an injury-hit start on Saturday as Brentford were defeated in the Premier League.

However, he has had to make do with a place on the bench in midweek as Erik ten Hag chose to rotate his team and hand Joshua Zirkzee a start.

Analysing the decision on TNT Sports, Scholes said: "Zirkzee comes in for Hojlund and I am with Owen [Hargreaves], I was really impressed with Hojlund especially the last couple of weeks, I think he is becoming a real threat, a real centre-forward showing real quality in that game on Saturday, a brilliant goal, so to be leaving him out of this game is disappointing and it is hard to see where the goals are going to come from."
