What needs to happen is for the takeover to go through and for Ratcliffe to take control of the footballing affairs - let's see how Ten Hag does then."Ĭhris Sutton and Dougray Scott were speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan. "That's why United have been struggling, not Ten Hag - I think he is a terrific manager. "They have been destabilised for so long because, despite potentially being the biggest club in the world, their financial model under the Glazers means huge sums of money are being taken out of the club and they are piling debt upon debt upon debt. "At the moment we are waiting to see whether Sir Jim Ratcliffe will complete a deal for 25% of the club but, for years, the problem at United has been from the top down. He has not become a bad manager overnight, and I'm actually surprised he has done as well as he has done, considering what is going on behind the scenes. "I've read all this stuff about Erik ten Hag losing the dressing room but I don't believe that. We have had some great teams down the years, but we are just not very good at the moment. He explained: "I've followed them since I was a boy, again because of my dad. Scott has an English team too - Manchester United - just like his father. It's obviously not at the same level as the Premier League, but I watch Hibs every week and there is still a lot of good passing football being played despite it being a very physical league." "I can't believe Sutton has gone for Bournemouth to draw with Manchester United!"

He didn't seem to have an affinity with Scottish football. "We are doing OK at the moment under Nick Montgomery, but under Lee Johnson we were terrible. I was there and it was just phenomenal - our 114-year wait to win the cup was finally over, and it was a fantastic day. "My favourite moment has to be the 2016 Scottish Cup final when we beat Rangers 3-2 at Hampden. We were fanatical - I still am, I have to say - it pains me when we get beat! "I started going with him in the 1970s and we used to go home and away together. "So he was watching Hibs in the 1950s with 'The Famous Five' - our legendary frontline of Gordon Smith, Bobby Johnstone, Lawrie Reilly, Eddie Turnbull and Willie Ormond - who were part of such a great team. "My dad lived in Glasgow as a boy but became a mad Hibee because his uncle was a scout for Hibs and he used to take him to Easter Road," Scott told BBC Sport. Scott followed in his father's footsteps and grew up a staunch Hibernian fan. Series one was set on a submarine, but series two takes to the skies and the secret world of drone warfare Scott plays air vice-marshall Marcus Grainger in series two of Vigil. Season two of Vigil begins on Sunday, 10 December at 21:00 GMT on BBC One, with the first three episodes available on BBC iPlayer from 06:00 that morning. Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches again this season, against a variety of guests.įor this weekend's games, he takes on actor Dougray Scott, who stars in the new season of high-stakes drama Vigil. The question is, can they go again and play at that level against the table-toppers? It's going to be hard for Villa to replicate that."
