Lingard's comments haven't been taken kindly by interim manager Rangnick.
The German responded saying: "I don't know, you have to ask Jesse Lingard.
"Obviously, after games like today, there is massive disappointment in the locker room. This is for me is normal."
Luckily for Rangnick, dealing with Man Utd's disastrous dressing room won't be his problem next season.
The club has announced that his successor will be Ajax boss Erik ten Hag.
Dutchman Ten Hag has signed a contract until 2025 with an option for a further year.
Rangnick, however, is expected to take up an advisory role behind the scenes.
