Ralf should ask the players to bring their medals into work tomorrow…anyone without one can never complain about a single thing that they are asked to do again.

Ronaldo and Pogba can have a good moan, but the rest should be reminded they have won nothing of note!

Feel for Ralf, coming into this dressing room and players immediately going crying to journalists. It’s a joke, overpaid bunch of babies, hope we see the back of a lot of players soon.

If it's true then I really don't like this. Ronaldo or not, this is a serious player power play that we never should allow to happen.
RR plays him almost every mins under him. I would not think of many reasons why he would not support him. The new guy might not play him that much.

All news for the past 2 days have been milking with Ronaldo because it will get good reactions.

It's the daily star.
I don't know much about the credibility of England's papers and I am not sure if this is inline with Ronaldo's personality, that's why I put "if" at the start.

Anyway my point is we should never allow that to happen regardless.

So Ronaldo decides who manages the team. This is just ridiculous. We could have pep and we would still struggle if that is the case.

What a load of tosh, Rangnick clearly isn't in the running to be our permanent manager.

These leaks are pathetic, from all sides.

Ole has clearly left us at an even worse point and lower mood than any who went before him. At least the squad wasn't trying to tear into itself under Jose.

I doubt it's true, Ronaldo won't even be here past summer anyway.

Ronaldo need to be benched. If he cant behave he can leave through the back door after this season.

The authority of the manager need to be restored. If the club is to come back to winning ways then that is the first thing that needs to be done.

That's cods, have you seen what Harry Kane is playing like? Conte has made no difference to him whatsoever.

All those moaning we didn't get Conte, do you really think these players we have would be playing any different to how they now are?
As a collective Tottenham are playing better since Conte's arrival.

Regarding Utd, if recent reports in the media are to be believed, then some of the team not knowing who Rangnick was, and having to call on a certain internet search engine to find out information about him; strongly suggests that Rangnick doesn't have the kind of CV the players will respond to...

Contrast that to Conte, who has 'Been there and done it' already in England (Premier League title and an FA Cup win), and I have no doubt that Utd's players would have responded to Conte more positively than they are doing to Ralf.

The players can feck off, they have signed a contract and are employees of the club. They have to respond to whoever the feck the club appoints as a manager.

Its because of fans like you who keep to defending the players who are throwing manager after manager under the bus that we are in this mess.

I wish rangnick puts all the whiners to the sword and sticks to playing the kids. I'd happily take us finishing 15th playing with kids than see a minute of these whiners on big money prancing about old trafford like they own the place.

Most of our players dont have a CV a good manager would respond to either.

Particularly some of those likely to be moaning the most.

I have a hard time believing that the players question Rangnick and his coaches, didnt knew him but we're happy under Ole and his coaches with Norwegian badges.

Remember when Ralf said he advised a club to get rid of old players and replace them with hungry young players? it does feel like its whats happening with United right now. These players have nothing to prove.

Do this means why Ronaldo was playing every mins no matter how poor of his performance under OLE and RR?He has a serious player power over the manager power.

What I dont get is. Ralf is an intertim mamager and we have leaks about the players moaning so much about him. Self entitled pricks. Do we really have to sack an intertim manager??

We've got players who are stinking up the joint and yet start every match, why is it a surprise that we now have squad unrest? Players aren't dumb, they can see the team is struggling, yet they can't get a look in. Ralf needs to grow a pair and stop caring about players reputations and start trying different things. Ole went down without swinging and it still pisses me off. He apparently wants to press with a 36year old striker with zero workrate, go figure.

I'm fully behind Rangnick. Even if we finish mid table. I know this is painful but we have to do this to modernize the club. He needs to be given authority over these prima donna. The same authority must be given to the next season permanent manager.

The players refuse to press like they were able to in the first 30 mins against Palace. For Newcastle and Wolves game, they didn't show any attempt to press at all. It would be ok if the pressing was not good as they are new to the system but it was bizarre that they shown zero effort to press.

This lot can't take double training session and has the lowest stats in many department in the EPL. The players who can't give their all on the pitch should be shown the door out.

We need to get rid of this cancer and culture in the club. Whoever don't work hard and committed will be out of the club. We need to be brutal. All managers we appointed after SAF complained that our players are not fit enough. These are highest paid football players in the world.

You get paid millions per year, the least you can do is train yourself up to be able to run and press for 90 mins in a football game.

I agree. Most players at the club aren't used to pressing because that isn't the way they've been playing over the past few years, but its silly if they're complaining because it's little strenuous. As you said, these players get paid millions. If they can't, or aren't willing, to press for 90 minutes, then it's a sign they might need to move somewhere else.

We have basically made wholesale changes for all those managers except Moyes. All of them have done nothing significant in football post Manchester United, they were either not good enough Moyes/Ole or past their best lvg/Jose. I am yet to see us fail with a manager at his peak. It's not sustainable to spend 500m every 3 years.

Look at the fact that teams have been pressing for most of the past decade and we just hired a manager who emphasis on it a month ago. People refuse to believe it but our squad has been poorly coached for a long time. The players have a lot of blame to carry but let's not forget what they have been getting served at Carrington.

He's not going to get sacked. He's well respected and liked by the people who know him, and more importantly the people who matter. The players will have to suck it up until the summer when hopefully a lot of them feck off.

:lol: seriously? So players are sad because Jessie fecking Lingard doesn't start ? Who comes up with these kind of shit ?

Out of all benched players , who actually make a case to start? DVB is the only one I can think of and we are still unsure whether he is a CM or a no 10.

These are all reflecting badly on players. If they think they can tarnish Ralf they themselves are getting embarrassed in the public. Fecking shit, do they really think they have a divine right to play for United ?

I dont care if we are relegated. Stay strong Ralf.
Jesse Lingard. :lol:

Its now got to a point where none of the players have any goodwill left with the fans. During Ole's reign in the final stages there were fans mentioning players because they felt Ole didn't treat them well or wasn't the right coach.

A new manager but same problems, its quite obvious players are the issue.

1. They dont like to work hard, we have seen that in games. Ralf making them work harder in training and they struggle.
2. Ralf changed where they sit in the canteen, instead of being with mates, which has upset players too. This isn't high school, so players are unhappy.


I also find it strange that players saying they haven't got the chance because, since Ralf has come in, almost every player has got a game. When we beat Palace, he started the same team against Norwhich, and the same defence at Newcaslte because they kept a clean sheet.

However; after a draw he made changes against Burnley and then gave those players another chance against Wolves.

Lingard and Donny might think they are not given the chance but Lingard put in a 2/10 against Young Boys and Donny wasn't great either.

So this myth about Ralf not giving players a chance is false, the players just feel entitled when they are not even able to pass the ball sideways.

Playing in a dead rubber with the reserves and youth players for 1 game is not a chance.

Putting Donny in for Bruno for a few games or Lingard in for Sancho while they play with the rest of the starting XI is a chance.

Ralf’s told some of the players some home truths and they are crying in the media. Sounds familiar to Jose stint, although he went to the media himself.

The players are a massive, massive problem. Every coach is getting thrown under the bus. Going to be so hard to turn around the changing room culture.

I think it's obvious the press are just making stories up now. They've latched on to the fact all is not well and just adding their own spin to get clicks.

I don't believe for a second the board would back Ralf over the players. If he went to them and said look Rashford is leaking stories and he's not performing, won't carry out my instructions so I think we should sell him does anyone think for a second the board would actually do it?
