Maybe the dressing room mood was not so great after first couple of defeats (like Aston Villa or Young Boys), but after 0-5 thrashing against Liverpool, things are bad, to say at least. There are two set of reports coming from Manchester: the ones who are covering the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer situation, and the ones who are covering the dressing room mood.Conte interested in Manchester job but would it be a wise move?Solskjaer’s position is under review at the moment, and different journalist (all of them credible) are writing different things. At one point, he is dead man walking, but hours later, he will be in charge of Spurs game and beyond. No official negotiations have started with Antonio Conte, only unofficial contacts, to see if the Italian is interested at all, and he is.😂 Get on Carra and Souness laughing at Neville for doing everything he can to avoid blaming Solskjaer for United being poorly coached pic.twitter.com/EVeuieYUiU— The Redmen TV (@TheRedmenTV) October 24, 2021 There is plenty to talk about the dressing room atmosphere. Solskjer’s authority over player selection and tactic have been questioned by the players, and some of them even challenged the Norwegian openly. After losing in Leicester 4-2, Solskjaer kept the squad in the dressing room for over an hour, and decided to say everything he wanted. It lasted so long, that the team bus had to be held. It was at that moment than he was challenged by Eric Bailly, one of the ‘forgotten’ players.Manchester United internal talks. Main part of board [Sir Alex Ferguson too] wants to give Solskjær another chance to be in charge for Tottenham game. 🔴 #MUFCPressure still high around Ole. No official talks with Antonio Conte – but he’d accept the job in the next days too. pic.twitter.com/Z5pPEfp7GG— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) October 26, 2021 The Ivorian asked the coach why he chose to play the not fit enough Maguire, who came back from calf injury, and only trained once before going into the starting line-up. Other players weren’t so direct, but some senior figures expressed their discontent with Ole’s refusal to ‘shake up’ the starting 11 after a series of bad results. Danny Van der Beek and Jesse Lingard are among players who don’t receive enough chances, according to players.##NAJAVA_MECA_5930421##And then there is Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese is not happy with the results (obviously), but while others question his work rate and lack of any defensive responsibilities, Ronaldo is questioning others. According to Daily Star, the Portuguese is irritated with Mason Greenwood due to a lack of cohesion between the duo on the field. The pair have featured together eight times, but neither player has assisted the other. And off course, Ronaldo expects more passes and less selfishness, which is quite hilarious, coming out of this mouth, but that’ how it is at the moment. Off course, Ronaldo expects Solskjaer to find out the solution, as he is the coach.
