Man United manager Erik ten Hag has blamed Manchester United star for Draw against Aston Villa
Sky Sports commentator Jamie Redknapp said that Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag dropped Marcus Rashford as a punishment, which ten Hag called “not okay.”
United drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace, but Rashford did not play because he had started their first six games of the season. Before the game started, Ten Hag made it clear that he was resting Rashford, who had scored three goals in his last two games, because of the play of Alejandro Garnacho and Amad, two other wingers.
Thirteen days before the game on Thursday, Ten Hag told the press that Rashford needed to be more disciplined and professional. One of Sky’s commentators on the game, Redknapp, said before the game started, “It feels like something went wrong…” Someone or something must have happened.”
Ten Hag seemed to be talking about Redknapp’s false claim at his news conference after the game: “Already, the speculation, some experts, that is crazy.” If you bring up such rumors when you do not know what is going on, I would almost say you are not a good person.
“All of this is just rotation. We have to play a lot of games and have more than 11 starting players, but we have to give every player a chance if they do well. In the end, we will see who does better by seeing who plays more.
“But this has nothing to do with anything; I am very happy with Marcus over all of it. He is doing a great job protecting and scoring right now, so I am happy with him.” Since he was on the bench, he had nothing to do but wait his turn.
“I have to say that Amad is playing really well, and Garnacho has scored in all of his games so far, maybe except for Liverpool.” We also need to play them.”
Ten Hag has been critical of Rashford for three weeks now, after calling Alan Shearer’s review of the United forward on Match of the Day “stupid.” The latest critic to be Redknapp is Ten Hag.
United had a lot of chances in the first half at Selhurst Park. They hit the goal twice and pulled off six saves from Dean Henderson, who was named the game’s best player. The reprieves gave Palace hope, and they probably had the best chances of the game.
“In the first half, we let them stay alive.” “In and out of control,” Ten Hag said. “Our game was great. The only thing I can say that we did wrong was not being precise enough in the box; we should have scored. In the first half, we let them stay alive.
“The second half was more even, and both teams had chances.”
