The Dutch manager was left scathing when asked about Rashford’s absence from the match against League Two side Newport.

The striker, who is United’s highest-paid player, missed Friday’s training session due to illness but it has since been revealed he had been out at a Belfast nightclub until the early hours of Friday morning.
A terrible season
“IHe declared himself ill in the last hours of yesterday, Ten Hag told BBC Sport. “It’s an internal problem. I’m taking care of it. We resolve this internally”.
