I'm not sure it means players are toxic, just that Utd have been a very poorly run football club for many years now.Personally I think it's far too many managers with a variety of styles for it to be a coincidence. A person like Rangnick knows when something is wrong 100% even if he's not as hands on as he once was. They're good players but they just turn up when they feel like it.
How many players has Ange transformed here in reality? I don't think there's a single player you could make a case for, perhaps Bissouma but he's not a regular in the league any more.
The reality is Ange is either working with new signings, players that weren't already problematic or bad ability wise (Romero, Bentancur, Richy, Son, Kulu, Pape, Porro) or academy talents now. If you put Ange in charge of our 22/23 or 21/22 sides he struggles a fair bit imo.
I certainly agree that the likes of Eriksen and Casemiro are past their best and need to be moved on, but that again is down to the lack of an overarching plan, rather than the players themselves.
How one of the richest clubs in world football can be in the position where they are having to play some of these would be tragic if it wasn't so funny.
