Senne lammen blast one Man United teammate for his poor performance against Newcastle that cost them yesterday
Frustration is reportedly brewing inside the Manchester United dressing room after their disappointing defeat to Newcastle United, with emotions running high among members of the squad. The loss has sparked strong reactions internally, and one player is said to have openly criticised a teammate’s display following the match.
Goalkeeper Senne Lammens did not appear to hold back while reflecting on the performance, reportedly expressing serious frustration about what he believed was a costly showing that played a role in the defeat.
According to reports, Lammens bluntly stated after the match: “I don’t want to sound unprofessional, but this particular player doesn’t deserve to be playing for Manchester United. It’s high time he starts learning Arabic.”
His comments are believed to have been triggered by the player’s limited involvement during the game. Match statistics reportedly painted an unflattering picture of the performance, suggesting the unnamed outfield player recorded fewer touches than the goalkeeper — a statistic many fans view as unacceptable for someone representing a club of United’s stature.
Supporters were quick to voice similar frustrations online, highlighting the lack of urgency and influence shown during a crucial fixture as United continue battling for European qualification.
The defeat has also placed added pressure on interim manager Michael Carrick, who now faces growing calls to make decisive selection choices as questions resurface about the squad’s consistency and overall quality.
Situations like this can test the unity within a dressing room, and criticism between teammates — especially when it becomes public — can easily intensify tensions if not handled carefully. At a club with expectations as high as Manchester United’s, every performance is scrutinised closely.
Attention now turns to how United respond in their next match and whether the player at the centre of the criticism can answer his doubters with a much-improved display.
