Eric Bailly has appeared to approve of comments criticising two of his Manchester United team-mates – Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford.
The Ivory Coast international has yet to kick on from his impressive debut season and yet again last season he didn’t feature as much as he should have due to injuries and lapses in form.
He showed early signs of a quality defender, but things took a misfortunate twist and he even fell out of favour with former manager José Mourinho (via Express), who brought him to Old Trafford.

This episode is likely to cause some friction between Bailly and his team-mates unless he can offer a valid excuse.
The images below show Bailly responding to an Instagram discuss United’s best possible XI for next season.

He then liked several comments criticising Pogba and Rashford, which suggest he agrees with the opinions expressed. Though both clicks could be excused as a mistake.
Bailly’s unlikely to address this publicly.
