Scott McTominay turns Man United fire starter as Scotland hero uses Sir Alex Ferguson trait to kickstart season

Scott McTominay is the embodiment of Man United spirit from happier times - and it could just spark their season. Erik ten Hag's side have had a tricky start to the season, amid inconsistent form and off the field issues.

It looked as if they were heading into the international break off a 1-0 Premier League defeat to Brentford before the Scotland international - who has found minutes hard to come by under Ten Hag this term - rose from the bench to score a stoppage-time double.

He thought similar goal joy had found him with a super free-kick midweek for Scotland but it was cruelly ruled out by VAR in a Euro 2024 qualifier against Spain.

The hosts in Seville went on to win 2-0. Former Chelsea and Aston Villa man Sidwell reckons McTominay's double was a throwback to the late showing Man United were famed for under the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson.
