Goodbye Manchester United! 75 million stars, the new owner,DirectlyGone, Mourinho's prophecy was fulfilledCurrently,Manchester United are going through a series of eventful times, with the takeover of Ratcliffe, Britain's richest man, which will trigger a series of profound changes. With the leadership of the club transitioning, some of the employees who had failed to contribute positively to the team in the past felt a sense of bloodshed, leaving everyone in a "everyone at risk" dilemma.
In this particular context,Manager Erik ten Hag has been the focus of heated discussions. The Dutch coach has invested a whopping £400 million, but little has come of it. Except for Lisandro MartinezIn addition to being a little eye-catching in terms of wind reviews, other stars such asMount, Antony, Onana and Amrabatand so on, all of which failed to meet the expected levels.
ThisThe influx of $400 million has not only made it difficult to weed out high-paid and incompetent players, but has also put United on the verge of a Financial Fair Play (FFP) violation。In order to avoid this risk, the team chose to abandon the recruitment operation in the winter transfer window, and was willing to face the consequences of not being able to qualify for the Champions League this season. This decision is not only to protect the team's financial health, but also to avoid falling into the trap of falling into the trap of non-compliance with FFP regulations. At the same time,Sir Dave BrailsfordAs the face of Sir Ratcliffe, he was a frequent presence at Old Trafford and was actively involved in the management of sporting affairs.
ThisManchester United's new directors were shocked after witnessing the FA Cup clash with Newport County, a game in which the Premier League giants were beaten twice by 16th-placed sides in League Two to score twice in a 4-2 scoreline。After the game, Sir Braitford was furious and eagerly tackled to deal with Marcus Rashford's absence from training due to illness. It was an unbelievable spectacle of the Premier League powerhouse losing its former steadiness on the pitch. Against Newport County, they were actually scored twice in a row by their opponents, and the scene left the viewers jaw-dropping. After the game,Sir Braitford looked angry and immediately threw himself into dealing with Marcus Rashford's absence from training due to illness.
According to the latest report from The Athletic UK's team of Manchester United journalistsTwo days after celebrating in a nightclub, Marcus Rashford suddenly claimed he was unwell and would not be able to take part in Manchester United's training session on Friday. According to the report, the trigger stemmed from the two nights he spent in a binge. There, Rashford enjoyed the night party, but after two days of indulgence, he wasUnable to attend the team's training session on time due to illness。Ten Hag is known for his emphasis on discipline during his time at Manchester United. Jadon Sancho has been penalised in succession and has even been banned from first-team public facilities, while Rashford is not the first time he has taken a risk. This time, they collided with each other as if they had broken into a minefield, which made Ten Hag's sense of discipline even more prominent.
According to the revelations of The Sun,The club has imposed a fine of £650,000 on Rashford. This amount is equivalent to two weeks' salary for a player, however, the story does not end there. As mentioned earlier,Sir Braitford expressed his outrage. The decision pushed Rashford into a monetary storm, with the player facing not only a sizable fine, but also a battle of morality and power.
According to an in-depth report by The SunMarcus Rashford and his agent were recently at Old Trafford for an in-depth conversation with Ten Hag. The meeting was attended by sporting director Murtaugh and Sir Braitfud. Sir Brailfold has issued a clear warning to the young, well-developed player, stating that the club will be actively looking for a replacement in the summer transfer window unless changes are made quickly. At the same time, he also revealed that Rashford will face a one-week ban. The whole scene was vivid and tense, making the meeting the focus of attention.
For a long time,Manchester United have been facing serious problems with discipline。fromPogba to Anthony Martial, and now to the presentSancho and RashfordThere has always been a tendency for the team's discipline to be loose. This season, Nemanja Matic has mentioned in interviews that Paul Pogba and Jadon Sancho are often late, and that the disciplinary committee made up of dressing rooms has accumulated fines of seven in a season£50,000.
This series of problems has made the atmosphere within the team seem quite loose, and not only that, but even the disciplinary committee in the dressing room has struggled to maintain order effectively. The situation makes one wonder if the contrast between the players on the training ground and in the dressing room is like two completely different worlds. Pogba and Sancho's tardiness, more like a veil of laziness over the team, planting a seed of instability throughout the season.
The figure of the disciplinary committee's fines revealed by Matic is even more staggering, 7The £50,000 figure reflects not only a lack of discipline in the team, but also a disorderly and irresponsible attitude。It's not just an issue within the team, it's also a direct impact on the performance on the pitch. This series of discipline problems, like a rusty pair of scissors, cut the cohesion of the team, making unity and discipline out of reach.
Maybe it's in supportPaul Pogba and Anthony Martialof the problem,Mourinho has laid the foundation, resulting in a distorted atmosphere in the United dressing room. The formation of this unhealthy trend may be expected to be corrected under the new boss now.
