Manchester United players ‘refuse to pass’ to team-mate with no goals: report

The mood around Manchester United is down as Erik ten Hag's side limp to the finish line of a disappointing season.Sunday's 1-0 defeat at home to Arsenal was their second defeat in a row, coming after a humiliating 4-0 hammering by Crystal Palace, and the Red Devils have won in their last eight Premier League outings.This shocking run has seen them drop to eighth in the table, with two games to go, the prospect of Champions League qualification long gone.To make matters worse, there were rumors of discontent within the team, particularly with forward Rasmus Hojlund missing out.The 21-year-old, who arrived from Atalanta last summer, was in prolific form in February but has since collected one goal in 10 games.Hojlund has hit a dry spell in recent weeks (Image credit: Getty Images)Overall, the Denmark international has scored 14 times in 40 games in all competitions as he leads the line for the Red Devils.But Manchester Evening News reports that Hojlund's teammates have lost confidence in him to the point where they are reluctant to give him the ball.The best features, fun and football quizzes straight to your inbox every week.A member of the United squad said the players are looking for other options in the final third as confidence in Hojlund wanes.The report shows that the Danish forward touched the ball just 14 times in Sunday's defeat to Arsenal.However, he is not alone in finding the goal hard to come by.United have scored together once in their last three games and their season tally of 52 goals ranks 12th in the Premier League.
