Erik ten Hag backs Marcus Rashford to take confidence from recent goals - Rashford scored his first goal since March at Southampton and then hit a brace against Barnsley in the Carabao Cup.

Marcus Rashford will be hoping to maintain his goalscoring form when Man United travel to Crystal Palace on Saturday evening.

LONDON – Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount could make their return during Manchester United’s English Premier League trip to Crystal Palace on Sept 21, but manager Erik ten Hag is wary of rushing the duo back from injury.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has welcomed Marcus Rashford’s return to goalscoring form in the last week.

One of the decisions Ten Hag can't botch is who starts in midfield. Casemiro returned to the starting team in the Carabao Cup in midweek, but he was dropped in the Premier League last weekend and Selhurst Park was the scene of his nadir in a United shirt last season.

Manchester United’s players have been accused of ‘hiding behind’ manager Erik ten Hag amid the club’s struggles. The Red Devils beat League One Barnsley 7-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday, but that has done little to enthuse fans after a poor start that has seen them take just six points from four Premier League games.

Erik ten Hag has given Manchester United star Marcus Rashford a vote of confidence but also exhorted him to 'prove it every time.'

Manchester United breezed past Barnsley to progress to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup after hammering Barnsley 7-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.
