Why has Marcus Rashford been dropped for Manchester United at Wolves?
When asked by BT Sport ahead at Molineux why Rashford was not in United’s starting XI, Ten Hag said: “Internal discipline.”
In the studio for BT, former United stars Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes said: “It’s difficult to know the truth. he said internal disciplinary, maybe lateness.
“He’s got the lad in the form of his life but for him to stand by it, we will see if it’s a wise decision.
“I love [Ten Hag] – he doesn’t care who it is, he’s obviously done something that’s upset him.
Ferdinand said: “We saw it with the Ronaldo situation, if a manager showed weakness, the most important people are the people in the changing room.
“If they nod and respect the decision, that is positive. Over the last few years, United have needed a hardness and discipline.
“Ten Hag is cold, he’s concise, direct and to the point, the players will appreciate that.”
