Former Nigeria captain John Obi Mikel says Manchester United’s recent performances are “awful” and describes them as a disaster, arguing that the team lacks cohesion. In his comments, he focuses on how United play rather than specific results, pointing to an apparent lack of unity among the squad.

Both outlets report that Mikel’s criticism extends beyond domestic league matches to United’s games in other competitions this season, including the UEFA Champions League. While the overall message is the same across the reports, the framings differ slightly: one stresses United’s style and cohesion as the core problem, while the other adds that the criticism is directed at the players collectively and implies they are not performing as a unit under Michael Carrick’s management.
