And the former United manager reportedly told off England women&#8217;s star Ella Toone after she returned to her seat late for the second half.<\/p>\n<p>United were in fine form against the Blues and secured their ninth Premier League victory of the campaign as Scott McTominay bagged a brace either side of a Cole Palmer strike. With the match locked at 1-1 at the interval, Toone made her way back to her seat, which was located in front of Ferguson in the directors\u2019 box. And, according to the Daily Mail, the 24-year-old received a playful telling off from the Scot as the second half had already begun by the time she sat down.<\/p>\n<p>Toone plays her club football for United and has scored one goal in four appearances this season. She also starred for England during the Women\u2019s World Cup earlier this year and started the final as her country were defeated 1-0 by Spain. But Ferguson was clearly in no mood to let her off after her time-keeping faux pas.<\/p>\n<p>Ferguson would have been happy with United\u2019s victory against Chelsea. But one fan on X (formerly Twitter) claimed the 81-year-old had torn into the Chelsea midfield in the directors\u2019 box after he had praised Sofyan Amrabat&#8217;s performance. \u201cThat\u2019s all very well, but he was up against nothing,\u201d Ferguson apparently exclaimed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to join our WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive Man Utd news.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp shows true colours with response to James Milner row<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5111910.jpg?r=1702400881333\"><\/p>\n<p>United\u2019s victory over Chelsea saw them move to within three points of the top four. But the 13-time Premier League champions were brought back down to earth three days later as they suffered a 3-0 thrashing to Bournemouth at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<p>And following the defeat at the hands of the Cherries, United boss Erik ten Hag said: \u201cI hoped before the game we could build on the performance and result against Chelsea. So I\u2019m very disappointed about the way we started the game. We did for a long time everything to get back in the game. After 2-0 we broke down so we have to do things better.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd will lose millions on Greenwood as Getafe &#8216;contract clause&#8217; emerges[INSIGHT] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man City risk Champions League ban as Guardiola faced with same issue as Man Utd[DETAILS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Paul Scholes convinced two Man Utd players can save season but slams &#8216;disgrace'[QUOTES] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5111919.jpg?r=1702400881456\"><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to always be ready for the game.
