Players get disturbed about old treatment for internal problem (6,3)

I believe the answer is:

inside job

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'players get disturbed about old treatment' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'internal problem' is the wordplay.
'internal' becomes 'inside' (associated in meaning).
'problem' becomes 'job' (synonyms).
'inside'+'job'='INSIDE JOB'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for inside job that I've seen before include "crime of disloyalty" , "Staff-colluding crime" , "doublecrossing crime" , "Sort of crime" , "Crime with collusion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
