  "account": "Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes criticized the team's post-match lap of honour, stating that it is \"embarrassing\" and should be stopped. United finds itself in a dire situation this season, currently teetering at the bottom of the table heading into the November international break. Scholes made his remarks on the Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, expressing frustration with the club's recent performances. The midfielder highlighted a recent 4-4 draw against Aston Villa, where United scored twice in stoppage time to secure a dramatic result. Despite under-pressure manager Michael Carrick's Champions League success against AS Roma, United's troubles persist, as they now sit in 18th position with only eight points from their first ten games.",
