Disappointing if that's the only 2. They may not have liked him, but a bit of professional courtesy goes a long way.
You're ok with our 'captain' rocking up late the day after we got dismantled by our rivals?
Yeh he wanted him gone a long time ago and was probably frustrated he wants being listened to and a useless mong like Lange was.
Nope, captain can’t be late.
But why are we finding out now?
Why didn’t he punish Romero at the time? No wonder he lost the dressing room of he was letting them walk all over him like that
It's funny because Frank actually quite happily came out to inform us that Bissouma was late for training yet all thie time it wasnt just him and Frank said nothing and defended Romero publicly every time.

The main criticism of Frank's management of the players seems to be that he is negative and critical. Rather than inspire the players to do better, it seems to have put them on the backfoot.
The players went through a very rough and emotional time last season. Very good performances in the opening games but missed out on some results. However, after 14 games, they will still just 4 points off the top 4 positions. Injuries fucked, but they still fought back to reach League Cup semi-final and win the Europa League - a monumental achievement for a squad disappointed by their performances.
For Frank to come in and tell them that their achievements meant nothing, and finishing 17th is the only think they should focus on was both insulting and a deal breaker. He needed to build on last season's successes, not failures.
A squad known for their attack and flair, was now told to give up the ball and maintain defensive shape. A popular squad member and top scorer Brennan was dropped - despite scoring in his first 2 games. Our breakout player of season Bergvall was also dropped, in favour of a 31 year old.
He didn't focus on the team's strengths; all he could think about was their weaknesses - and ended up playing a system exposing them.

That was probably already the beginning of the end for him. Players notice when you play favourites with discipline. Lose their respect on that, you lose it on everything… tactics and team selection included
There is a video knocking about with Frank trying to talk to the players ( I presume at HT) and nobody is listening to a word and he comes across as very weak.
Unfortunately I can't find it.

Is it the one where he starts “is everyone here”
Every. Single. Ange-outer now in the absolute mud. What a shit show they have helped cause.
Because they're all bollocks
You can write any old cobblers on twitter and get it reported in the news even though it's mostly unsubstantiated bullshit.
