Manchester United’s recent struggles have caught Wayne Rooney’s attention for all the wrong reasons. After suffering a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Crystal Palace, followed by a 1-0 loss to Arsenal, the team is now languishing in eighth place in the league standings. Rooney has criticized the players’ lack of effort and commitment, resonating with Erik ten Hag’s concerns about their attitude on the field. The former England star emphasized the importance of showing character and responsibility, pointing out that the manager’s comments on their attitudes are a major blow to the team’s morale. Despite their upcoming FA Cup final against Manchester City being a ray of hope, United’s performance this season has been far from satisfactory. With a string of injuries affecting key players like Lisandro Martinez, Harry Maguire, and Marcus Rashford, the team’s flaws have been glaring. Rooney lamented the absence of accountability among the injured players, highlighting the need for them to step up and take ownership of their situation before it’s too late.
