Erik ten Hag is struggling to maintain harmony within his Manchester United squad, per reports. The Red Devils suffered defeat in their Champions League opener, following up a home defeat to Brighton with a 4-3 away loss to Bayern Munich.

There were mistakes aplenty during the game, and goalkeeper Andre Onana committed another. Onana was at fault for the first goal, and question marks remain over the big money summer signing. And it’s not just the fans who are asking questions, with the players also unhappy about some of the decision-making at the club over the summer as it pertains to the goalkeeping department.

According to The Sun, a number of players remain unhappy about how David De Gea - who remains without a club - was treated at the end of his time at the club. De Gea’s contract expired in the summer, and the two parties failed to agree an extension, leading to the Spaniard being released.

De Gea’s farewell was a pretty ugly one despite the goalkeeper spending 12 years at the club. The veteran had battled through a difficult final couple of years at the club, but he was also one of the best keepers in the world during many of his years at Old Trafford.

For that, the United stars reportedly appear to believe that De Gea should have been shown more respect ahead of being sent packing rather unceremoniously.

It may be water under the bridge for Ten Hag, who has been ruthless in the building of his squad, but it’s not the case for many of his players, according to the report, and it could be yet another crack in what appears to be a dressing room that is slowly falling apart amid poor performances, controversies surrounding Mason Greenwood and Antony, and, of course, the falling out between Ten Hag and Jadon Sancho.
