Despite an unsubstantiated assertion from Jesse Lingard, Manchester United interim head coach Ralf Rangnick has stated that there is no serious issue in the club’s dressing room.
Former Red Devils player Paul Scholes stated during Saturday’s 3-1 loss to Arsenal that Lingard informed him that the club’s locker room is a “disaster.”
Rangnick refrained from stating that there was a totally united dressing room, with the players ‘getting along rather well’, as the German put it.
“I don’t know, you have to ask Jesse Lingard,” Rangnick told reporters.
“Obviously, after games like today, there is massive disappointment in the locker room. This is for me normal.
“But I think the whole group get on reasonable with each other, I’m not daring to say they get on well with each other. But I don’t see there is an issue in regard to the locker room.”
Man United‘s prospects of finishing in the Premier League’s top four have all but vanished following Saturday’s setback in North London, with the club currently six points behind fourth-placed Arsenal, who also have a game in hand.
The 20-time English champions will be looking to reclaim their winning ways when they host Chelsea on April 28 at Old Trafford.
