Scott McTominay, who is a having a terrific individual season’ has now come out and admitted that the atmosphere at the club was at time toxic under previous managers.
However, he insisted that every player in the squad is fully behind ten Hag.
He said (via BBC Sport):
“It is the players’ responsibility, first and foremost, the players know that as well.”
“We have had many amazing players and right now we are at the stage where we have big characters in the dressing room. It’s not just a case like some of the other managers, where it has been a little bit toxic at times. The boys are firmly behind the manager.
“I’ve said that in many other interviews and that is the way it will stay. We’ve got an amazing coaching staff as well, so it can get lost in translation, with what the players think and what is said behind closed doors. But we just want to do well for the football club.”
