Ten Hag ‘lost’ half of the dressing room, players want Sancho back

“No positives. Nothing. They’re whinging at each other! They’re a bunch of whingebags! Watch them on that pitch, arms up in the air, complaining about everything! Honestly, they’re absolutely shocking out there in that first half. They got the last manager the sack! They’ll get a lot of managers the sack, that lot, if they carry on like that. They’ve got to sort themselves out because it’s massively below what’s expected” said Garry Neville. The problem is, the former Manchester United player said this two years ago! It was also the game with Newcastle and it ended with only a 1-1 draw, but the attitude and the dressing room issues were a problem back then. 🚨🚨🌕| Erik ten Hag is losing the confidence of players and some staff members. A dressing room source said the situation is “so bad” while some senior #mufc players have expressed concern at the direction of the club. [@samuelluckhurst] pic.twitter.com/txWJjb5vfa— centredevils. (@centredevils) December 5, 2023 And after (another) loss, the situation at Old Trafford is (again) under the microscope. Same issues – the mood in the dressing room. A lot of players have left United since Ralf Ranghick played that 1-1 game with Newcastle, but the new ones have not changed much. According to the reports from Sky Sports, some players are unhappy with the team’s style of play, they feel they are training ‘too hard’ and they are running too much in training – with some senior players ‘not sure what they are running for’. It’s added that certain senior players have spoken to Ten Hag about what’s going on – bringing up their experiences at previous clubs – and feel his man-management could be improved. ‘Martial scores in every 14 years, Rashford looks like Martial’So, above all other problems, the Dutch tactician now needs to fight for his player’s trust, as the report says it’s almost half of the dressing room who are having doubts about Ten Hag. Some of those complaints are not new, as several other media wrote about it in November, for example that the players though that an intense pre-season training session were among the reasons for a poor form. There is also an ‘elephant in the room’ – Jadon Sancho. After falling out with his manager, the England international refused to apologies and was omitted from the first team and was even prohibited to dine in the cantina with his teammates. Already looking to move on in January, Sancho is apparently training ‘like a beast’ and several players are now asking Ten Hag to reinstate him to the team. Another challenge for the Dutchman. And a huge games against Chelsea and Bayern in the Champoins League are coming up…
