Jadon Sancho's been causing a bit of drama at Manchester United lately. He went on social media to let everyone know he's not happy with his manager Erik Ten Hag who publicly accused him of underperforming in training.It's like déjà vu, reminding us of 10 other times when managers and players clashed in a big way.Speaking of Manchester United,it's not just Jadon Sancho who's had some drama there recently.We all remember the Cristiano Ronaldo run-in with manager Ten Hag last season.Ronaldo spilled the beans, saying that Ten Hag and a few others were plotting to push him out of Old Trafford.Yep, it wasn't just the coach;there were a couple more folks within the club involved.Ronaldo felt completely let down,and you could see things were off the rails when he left the game against Spurs before the final whistle.Ronaldo probably felt just as let down as Joao Felix did when he had a face-off with manager Simeone.

Felix revealed why he made the move from Atletico Madrid to Chelsea during the winter transfer window. He mentioned that he was trying to be a different player while under the watchful eye of the manager.Felix explained that Simeone had a unique perspective on the game,but it seemed like his approach was all about 'suffering' on the field.Maybe that's why Felix ended up on loan at Barca–to avoid more Simeone-style suffering.But Felix isn't the only one facing challenges in adapting to the manager's desired system.In fact,Lukaku had a disagreement with Tuchel for the same reason.Lukaku believed that the coach had opted for a different system,saying that he just had to not give up and continue to work and be a professional.However, when questioned about whether Lukaku should discuss his concerns privately next time,
Tuchel questioned whether he needed to offer advice to a 28-year-old about the matter.
But sometimes, a clash with your manager can lead to losing your captaincy,and Aubameyang can vouch for that.The former Arsenal striker found himself excluded from the Arsenal squad by Arteta due to a disciplinary issue returning late from an approved trip to France,which wasn't his first time being tardy.On top of that,he was stripped of his role as club captain and effectively banished.But Aubameyang didn't hold back. In a leaked video, he was caught criticizing the Gunners' boss after leaving the north London club for Barcelona.He took a dig at Arteta,suggesting that the person in charge in north London couldn't handle big personalities.Talking about strong personalities, Lewandowski, a big name in the game,didn't get along with his former manager Nagelsmann.He left Bayern after a heated argument during practice where Nagelsmann wanted to tell him where to run on the field.Nagelsmann wanted to improve the team's wing play and asked the striker to move to different spots on the field.But the Poland captain didn't like this idea.Lewandowski reminded his boss that he scored 41 goals in one season, not the coach.This probably made things worse.We all know that when two strong-willed people fight, it's tough to make up, so Lewandowski decided to leave.
There were more intense clashes, this time between two different players but with the same manager, the magician Pep,who's known for being a strict teacher.In the previous season,Pep sent Cancelo on loan to Bayern because he felt his attitude wasn't right during training.Likewise, Gabriel Jesus explained that his departure from Manchester City was due to Pep Guardiola's choice to play Oleksandr Zinchenko as a false nine instead of him.Jesus was deeply upset,and he even shed tears. He remembered calling his mother and sharing his desire to leave the team.But did you know that Quique Setién once told Messi,If you don't like what I'm saying,you can leave'?This happened because Messi didn't like the way Setién scolded the players for their mistakes during a game that ended in a draw.Basically, Messi told Setién to give some respect to the players.After all, they've won a lot and have a much better history than he does. And guess what? Word has it that Messi even asked for Setién to be fired,which really surprised Barcelona.
His best friend Luis Suarez took a few shots against a manager.Suarez said that Koeman's call to let him know he wasn't in the plans was very short,only 40 seconds.He felt it wasn't a proper farewell for a legend like him. Koeman first said he wasn't part of the plans and then mentioned that if he didn't sort out his contract,he would have to play against Villarreal.Suarez concluded that these were very difficult days for him because of everything he did for the club.Lastly,Ozil had a big fight with coach Jose Mourinho in the dressing room at the Santiago Bernabeu.Mourinho eventually told Ozil he could leave.Ozil described how Mourinho stared at him with his dark brown eyes,and it felt like the tension before a boxing match's first round.He admitted that he lost his temper and threw his jersey at Mourinho's feet,giving him some advice like,If you're so great, why don't you play? So,there you have it from fiery Pep to scary Mourinho,these were the instances when footballers hated their managers.If you enjoyed this article,let us know in the comments.Also share it to your family and friends.Catch you in the next one. Bye!
