Erik Ten Hag is facing a dressing-room mutiny at Manchester United with a host of his stars at breaking point. United have lost almost half of their games this season – 10 out of 21 – and slumped to their worst performance in Saturday’s miserable defeat at Newcastle.
Anthony Martial clashed with Ten Hag during the defeat over his workrate, while fellow frontman Marcus Rashford was slammed for his lack of desire.
United sources have revealed a clutch of players are disillusioned with their plight, reports the Mirror, with Ten Hag now staring at a major battle to keep his squad onside.
The manager faces a crucial run of games in the coming weeks, starting with Chelsea at home tomorrow and a must-win Champions League tie against Bayern Munich at Old Trafford on Tuesday, with a visit to arch rivals Liverpool on December 17.
