Paul Scholes has slammed Louis van Gaal for reacting to Sam Allardyce’s ‘long-ball United’ comments - labelling the Dutchman’s outburst ‘bizarre’. The former England midfielder believes Van Gaal, as manager of Manchester United, should have ignored the West Ham manager’s comments, which were made following the 1-1 draw at Upton Park on Sunday. The 63-year-old turned up for his press conference ahead of United’s game against Burnley on Wednesday with a four-page dossier, which he insisted dispelled the claims made by Allardyce.
