If Jadon Sancho wants to go back into Manchester United’s lineup, Erik ten Hag has said he can, but only if he apologizes.
Sancho, 23, has been benched from the first team since he vented his frustrations at the Old Trafford manager on social media following the Dutchman’s explanation for leaving him out of the September match against Arsenal.
The England winger went on the оffensive, accusing Ten Hag of making him a “scapegoat” for his exclusion from the team due to his lackluster performance in training.
When next month’s transfer market opens, it appears like United will sell Sancho. “So it is about a culture and every player has to match certain standards and that was about that,” Ten Hag remarked, nonetheless.
What happens there is entirely up to him; he is aware of the steps he must take if he wishes to return. Now it’s up to him to do what he knows to do. Ten Hag declined to comment, citing a “internal matter,” when questioned about Sancho’s continued full-pay status while training apart from the first squad.
This week, Nemanja Matic, a former United midfielder, disclosed that Sancho and Paul Pogba were chronically tardy to training sessions throughout their tenures with the club.
An ιnjury sustained by Victor Lindelof in yesterday’s victory over Chelsea means he will not be able to play in today’s match at Old Trafford against Bournemouth.
Erik ten Hag embedded discipline in Garnacho – now he must for other Man Utd stars
As part of his efforts to alter the atmosphere at Old Trafford, Erik ten Hag set expectations with Alejandro Garnacho during his first summer on the job.
The manager of Manchester United is unfazed by the prоspect of failure. It was a key factor in Garnacho’s rise to the status of legitimate first-team player at United. Whether or not he can win the team over is the remaining question.
Upon Ten Hag’s arrival at United, AD Garnacho had just turned eighteen. However, the Argentine star’s tardiness did cause a few problems. They were quickly resolved, which resulted in Garnacho receiving opportunities last season, showcasing his abilities.
The now-19-year-old winger appears to be maturing into his own following a goal-of-the-month performance versus Everton and a man-of-the-match performance against Chelsea. Even though there were problems, Ten Hag emphasized that the players are still young and have a long way to go before they can handle the demands of professional football.
However, he is aware of it at this time. To make this advancement a reality, we cоmpel participants. We thought he was worth bringing in and wаnted to give him a chance to show what he can accomplish right now when the season started.While there is always room for improvement, we are pleased with his current performance and feel he has made a significant contribution. After scoring 30 goals last season, Marcus Rashford’s chances of returning to the left wing have diminished due to Garnacho’s rise to prominence.
Then Rashford is a fantastic player, Ten Hag remarked. “I believe he will get there; you can’t do it with eleven players, he can’t play in every game right now, and he isn’t in the same form he was last year.”
