Speaking to the Mirror Zlatan said, "They are not there anymore. They are on TV and complaining all the time because they are not active in the club. If you want to work in the club, go and search for work in the club. So you cannot be on TV and always complaining and criticising. Yeah, ok, you've had your time, we know it."

Zlatan had moved to United in 2016 under Jose Mourinho.
The star striker played 53 games for United, before moving to Los Angeles Galaxy.
The comments of United's former players, who criticized both Jose and Paul Pogba consistently, didn't go well with Zlatan.
Scholes in particular was critical of Mourinho, and his style of play.
The Neville brothers and Rio Ferdinand were vocal too.
