Man Utd star sends message to manager: You're wrong and my team-mates agree with me

Memphis Depay was dropped from the Holland squad before being reinstated by manager Danny Blind

MEMPHIS DEPAY has responded to criticism from Holland manager Danny Blind by insisting he is a team player.

 

The Manchester United star was dropped from the national team squad - before being reinstated - and Blind accused Depay of not being a team player.

Last week he said:"In football you must function in a team.

"He (Depay) doesn’t always do that. I have also told him when I called him to say he’s not in there. That’s something he has to learn."

 

However, Depay has hit back, claiming his opinion was unjust and that his fellow team-mates agree.

"When I spoke to Danny Blind [after linking up with Holland], it was a very good conversation," he told NOS.

“I don’t think I’m in a difficult path of my career, as the media says. I just think my form isn’t very good right now.

"But I'm still working hard and, just because I'm not displaying the same form that I showed at the World Cup or last season, it doesn’t mean that I'm not working hard."

"I think I’m a team player and the other players in the team also think that.

"I feel good again right now and other people don’t see what I’m doing in the training , so people think I’m not busy with football.

"But that’s not true."
