Manchester United legendary player Paul Scholes has praised Blind's
performances alongside new
signing Eric Bailly but feels it is
only a matter of time before
opposition players take
advantage of the Netherland
international's small
stature compared to other players playing his position.
Scholes is quoted as
saying by the Manchester
Evening News:
"Blind is a better defensive
midfielder for United than he is a
centre-back, but he's been an
excellent partner for Eric Bailly so
far this season, hence why Chris
Smalling is not in the team at the
moment."
"Yet, he's not won everybody
over yet. Why? Because he's
physically limited in the Premier
League and people are expecting
him to be found at some point. I
suppose I still am, and against
City he was found wanting
against a dynamic Kevin de
Bruyne. I would rather see
Smalling partner Bailly in the
long-term.""
