Man Utd stars ‘ANGRY with Marcus Rashford’ after discovering he was in nightclub before missing FA Cup clash
MANCHESTER UNITED stars are “angry” at Marcus Rashford after his latest disciplinary issue.
The Sun exclusively revealed that the forward went on a 12-hour bender before phoning in sick to training.

His boozy night out in Belfast led to him passing out fully clothed on a bed at 3am.
Rashford was dropped from the Man Utd squad for the FA Cup tie against Newport County as punishment and fined two weeks wages worth £650,000.
His future at the club and in the England squad are now also in doubt.
Rashford arrived at Carrighton in his Lamborghini Urus with his brother and agent Dwaine Maynard for showdown talks with manager Erik ten Hag yesterday.
The 26-year-old is “taking responsibility” for his actions.
But The Sun understands his team-mates are unhappy with Rashford after they discovered the true reason for his absence was a hangover and not a sickness bug.
The Mail claim: “The players were told he was too ill to train and then it came out that he’d been in the nightclub.
“They couldn’t believe that he would do that given the situation the club is in.”
Rashford could return to the pitch on Thursday as United take on Wolves.
This issue is the third time Ten Hag has had to deal with the player after he went to a nightclub for his birthday just hours after defeat in the Manchester derby to bitter rivals Man City.
His boss then called his behaviour “unacceptable”.
Ten Hag also threw the book at him last season when he missed a team meeting due to oversleeping and was subsequently put on the subs bench for their next game.
Rashford has struggled for goals this season, scoring just four goals in 26 games.
His poor form has seen United crash out the Carabao Cup and Champions League with pressure mounting on Ten Hag.
United also sit eighth in the Premier League, having lost nine of their 21 games – while shipping 29 goals in the process.
They sit eight points off the top four and the FA Cup is their only chance at a trophy this season.
