According to British media, Manchester United players prefer Argentine coach Pochettino to coach the team, rather than Tenghag, who is favored by interim manager Ronnick.
Manchester United's new president, Richard Arnold, has taken office and the selection of the manager is about to start, because Lonnick has been in office for several months, and his record has been as volatile as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's, and the chances of regularization have been greatly reduced. Manchester United's legendary goalscorer Rooney is also not optimistic about Ronnick leading the team to win the top four of the Premier League, and if this performance indicator is not met, the German cannot become the official manager. 'Manchester United's players are not bad, but I've seen their last games, even if they're good and not good enough. Rooney said, "Honestly, this needs to be improved and the players have to show their personality and unity to fight for the club. If this continues, I don't think United will be in the top four. They need to work together, whether they're friends or don't like each other, and they have to play side by side for the club for 90 minutes of the game."
The Manchester United crowd will also have their own options, with the British newspaper The Sun saying that the players in the dressing room support Pochettino, who was once in charge of Tottenham. Ajax's Tenhag, who coached bayern Munich second team, is also favored by him as a German coach with Lonnick.
But United players are more supportive of Pochettino, mainly for two main reasons. First, the 49-year-old Pochettino has coached in the Premier League for many years, taking Southampton in addition to Tottenham. Uncle Po remains in close contact with United left-back Luke Shaw, whom he cultivated during his time at Southampton, and his premier league coaching performances have also conquered several other United players.
The Manchester Evening News also confirmed that Pochettino is the most popular official manager among Manchester United players. The club's top brass is also confident to bring in Pochettino as he has long been interested in coaching Manchester United.
Second, Longnick has never had the absolute trust of United's current players, and his management style has also made the stars in the dressing room quite critical.
Lonnick's treatment of Jesse Lingard has made Marcus Rashford and other Manchester United teammates dissatisfied; and his substitution in the game has made star players such as C Ronaldo depressed and disappointed. In a 1-1 draw between United and Premier League bottom side Burnley, Ronnick replaced C. Ronaldo in the second half with Ronaldo, a substitution that satisfies both strikers.
C Ronaldo was naturally reluctant to act as a substitute, only playing for more than twenty minutes, and Cavani was also disappointed by being replaced, shaking his head as he walked off the pitch, and his disappointment was overflowing. On the one hand, the Uruguayan striker is dissatisfied with his failure to score, on the other hand, he is naturally reluctant to withdraw from the line of fire. Simon Stone, a well-known BBC Manchester United correspondent, made it clear that the move was a sign of poor attitude for United players.
In mid-January, United's manager has made some progress, with the club likely to select the final candidate as soon as possible before the summer transfer window opens on 1 July. A source familiar with the process said United believed the appointment of a full manager was "sooner rather than later". The new president, Alexander-Arnold, will be responsible for reporting on the progress and results of the coaching to the boss Glazer family, football director John Mertav will lead the manager selection, and Lonnick will have a certain say, but the attitude of Manchester United players can not be ignored.
Since the retirement of Sir Verde, The United stars have become increasingly influential in the dressing room, especially after pogba's battle with Mourinho, the club has chosen to support the players, who have become more and more aggressive off the pitch.
