On January 5, Post reporter Chris Wheeler posted a long article revealing that Manchester United are currently in chaos, and some players said that the atmosphere in the team was the worst in memory.
The following is what the reporter disclosed:
One of the first things Lonnick did after taking office was to hire a sports psychologist, and after Neville criticized the players for complaining, Lonnick made the players pay attention to some of his poor body language.
As soon as the winter window opened, Martial, Cavani, Van der Beek, Dean Henderson, Mata and Lingard wanted to leave. The players belong to the team's marginal line-up and can't understand why they didn't play more games in a situation where the team is so bad right now. Solskjaer is said to have put his arm around their shoulders and made some unfulfilled promises, which made the situation worse and the players preferred to be told directly about the future.
Lonnick is calmer and more far-sighted than Solskjaer. But he faced the same situation, picking players from roughly the same list. The atmosphere in Carrington was very bad and was described as depressing. As many as half of the players are said to be dissatisfied with the team. Some veteran players said it was the worst team atmosphere in memory, with different opinions within the team and the player community split into small groups.
Previously, at the team dinner organized by Ronaldo in November, there were also some notable absent players (notable absentees).

In the United States, they call these players: coach killers.
On the last day of Solskjaer's departure, after he had finished cleaning up his desk in Carrington, some of the staff asked the manager why he hadn't done more to expose the players who had disappointed him, publicly criticizing them. And So shuai faced this problem with only a regretful smile and shrugged.
Lonnick is currently facing this problem, and the interim manager is well aware of the seriousness of the problem. In the first game of Ronnick's arrival, the players insisted on the game plan in the first half against Crystal Palace, but after that, it was rare to see such performances. United will have more problems if the situation does not improve at present, but it will not be easy for Ronnick and the coaching staff to try to improve the atmosphere of the club at present.
