Manchester United's all-time record goalscorer Wayne Rooney criticised the Red Devils players after their 4-1 Champions League defeat to Como. Rooney made the comments on the United Stand podcast.
Speaking after captain Bruno Fernandes questioned the coaching staff's tactics following the match, Rooney argued that players were shifting responsibility onto others. The former player recalled that he had also criticised Lisandro Martinez's comments earlier, and said this could threaten to divide the dressing room.
Rooney stressed the need for players to take responsibility on the pitch and called on the squad to share collective accountability. Using strong language, he claimed that players were acting selfishly and did not care about their teammates, the manager or the fans.
Manchester United went behind to Como in the 2nd minute and lost the match 4-1. Under head coach Michael Carrick, the team has not won any of its last 7 matches across all competitions.
