Manchester United 'talk too much about the PAST' says Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has urged Manchester United to stop living on the past and 'focus on the present' in a savage assessment of his former side.

The outspoken Swede is rarely ever one to pull his punches and he did not hold back on United, in the wake of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's sacking as manager.

A humiliating 4-1 defeat to Watford saw Solskjaer axed by the hierarchy with United eighth in the Premier League and 12 points off leaders Chelsea.

For Ibrahimovic, United 'talk too much' about past glories and they will not restore success by dining out on trophies from yesteryear.
