Cliques and rifts are developing inside the Manchester United dressing room, it has been claimed.
The Daily Mail says captain Harry Maguire is said to have been more reserved since Cristiano Ronaldo returned in the summer and the leadership lines have become blurred with the iconic Portuguese on the scene.
But that is just the tip of the iceberg with petulance and discontent said to be rife among several squad members.
The mood at Carrington is described as 'very low' with existing cliques within the squad being firmed up by the new canteen design.
Six four-seater seating booths have been installed which discourages the squad from sitting together as one and makes it easier for smaller established groups to keep themselves to themselves.
Some squad members are also said to be struggling to adapt to manager Ralf Rangnick's later training sessions with players leaving as late as 5pm on Tuesday.
And wantaway star Anthony Martial is just one of the players - along with Jesse Lingard, Dean Henderson, Eric Bailly and Donny van de Beek - who is said to be less than happy around the club at the moment.
