It won’t be untrue to say Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United is in dire straits now. After falling 1-0 against Newcastle United, the Red Devils marked their 10th defeat this season. Aggravating things at Old Trafford, superstar signing Rasmus Hojlund and three other players tend to spark divisions within their locker room. Erik ten Hag encounters this new headache as some senior United players doubt the ability of these new signings.

Notably, Rasmus Hojlund joined Manchester United in a staggering $78.3 million deal. However, the youngster is yet to score in the Premier League. Few other stars’ lackluster shows have also concerned United veterans.

Manchester United’s locker room unhappy about Erik Ten Hag’s signings

According to Manchester Evening News, senior players are worried about the Red Devils trajectory in the future. Apart from Hojlund, Antony, Wout Weghorst, and Mason Mount, the recruitment has been questioned by the club’s players and the fans. Antony has failed to find the net for the Red Devils this season. Moreover, Mason Mount had a goalless stint with United after eight appearances. Meanwhile, Wout Weghorst managed barely two goals in 32 appearances for Erik Ten Hag’s side.

Given veterans’ growing concerns about these players, the Manchester Evening News’ dressing room source has said the situation is ‘so bad’ at Old Trafford. The report also added that a player is seriously alarmed by Rasmus Hojlund’s inability to score in the league despite boasting a staggering deal.

Moreover, the Dutch manager’s strategy and tactics too have raised concerns among United stars. One such instance was when Ten Hag reverted MUFC into a diamond formation, only to lose 3-1 against Brighton at home in September. Apart from the Dutchman’s newest additions to Old Trafford, some other key players are criticized.
