Gordon Strachan, the legendary manager of Man United, claims that his players are more interested in social media than in winning.

Gordon Strachan, a Manchester United legend, has accused their players of being more focused on social media than winning.

 

Gordon Strachan, who won the FA Cup with United in 1985, spent five seasons at Old Trafford, achieving a second-highest finish in the First Division in 1987-88.





He is of the opinion that the club has plenty of clothes and nightlife adventures to showcase, but no medals or trophies to post about.

 

'There's no players spreading a winning mentality,' Strachan told GentingCasino. 'They've been spreading Instagram. I know what they're doing, I know what clothes they're wearing, I know what clubs they're at. I can see what boat they're on. But I don't see any Premier League or Champions League medals.


The winning culture has been diminished over the past six years. There are a few good players at United, such as Fernandes, who is not the perfect captain but a good player, and he is surrounded by waste. For many of them, being a United player has been sufficient. That needs to change.

 

'Where do you find these players and people? I really don't know. Because there are probably a lot of people in that dressing room who are desperate to be led just now, because everybody can't be a leader.


'Amorim and whoever is in charge of recruitment has to find the new ones. The club has always had win-at-all-costs players – Jaap Stam and Nemanja Vidic, Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo: it's all about winning.

 

'I don't think it's all about winning at that club just now. It's a culture that needs to change.'
