Erik ten Hag has furiously hit out at ‘speculation’ over why he dropped Marcus Rashford against Crystal Palace – after Jamie Redknapp guessed ‘something has happened’ this week.
Rashford had scored three goals in his last two games but was forced to settle for half an hour off the bench as Manchester United drew 0-0 at Selhurst Park.
Ten Hag said: ‘I heard already speculation from pundits, it’s crazy, as a person you are not ok when you bring such speculation when you don’t know. It was just rotation.
‘I am very happy with Marcus in everything he is doing.’
Redknappy had fired a bee in Ten Hag’s bonnet by saying: ‘It feels there’s maybe something that has happened this week. I don’t know, the manager’s frustration.’
