Wilfried Zaha reveals he used to eat CROISSANTS for dinner after being 'forgotten' by Manchester United during his 'depressing' spell under David Moyes at Old Trafford... as he insists the situation was '10 times worse' because he wasn't playing

Wilfried Zaha claims he was 'forgotten about' at Manchester United as explains how his 'depressing' spell under David Moyes was made worse by not playing.

The winger – who moved to United in 2013 as a 20-year-old – struggled to settle into life away from home and admitted to watching TV by himself and eating croissants for dinner as he dwelled in his on negative thoughts.

Zaha believes his lack of pitch time made matters 'ten times worse' as he claims he was not confident or experienced enough to knock on Moyes' door to ask why he wasn't playing.
