Midfielder said she went to bathroom to cry in sessions‘Players want to play football, says United head coach
Marc Skinner has responded to Irene Guerrero saying she needed to go to the bathroom and cry during Manchester United training sessions under him by saying he is confident the club has “a great support team behind the scenes”.
Guerrero told the Spanish newspaper Marca she had “hit rock bottom” during her time with United and was upset by her lack of playing time. Guerrero, who now plays for the Mexican club América, spent one season with the club, making three WSL appearances, all as a substitute, playing 26 minutes, and madeone start in the League Cup.
In a lengthy interview the World Cup-winning Spain midfielder said: “I remember mid-training session, going to the bathroom and having to let it out, cry, wash my face and go out to train as if nothing had happened. I had moments of weakness, of not understanding why I had left a place where I was doing well and believed I could compete to go to a club where they were denying me as a footballer.”
