Tottenham fans will not like what Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has said about two of the Lilywhites’ best players.

While Tottenham Hotspur boasted of many world-class players in their squad a few years ago, they hardly have any who would fit in that category at the moment.

However, two players who do fit that bill are Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, whose stock continues to rise despite the Lilywhites’ continued struggles.

Apart from their defensive heroics, the pair have also been lethal in the other box this season, having found the back of the net 13 times between them.

A few months ago, Jamie Carragher admitted that he would have Tottenham’s two starting centre-backs over Liverpool’s, and another pundit has now made a similar comment regarding his former side.

Scholes admitted that he would take both Van de Ven and Romero at Old Trafford in a heartbeat.

Speaking on  The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, the 51-year-old said: “I love the centre-halves me, van de Ven and Romero. I think they should be playing. If those two centre-halves were at Man United, I wouldn’t mind that, would you?”
