Jadon Sancho will be used as a no-show by Erik ten Hag. 10 following the England international’s Wednesday night return to Manchester United. Sancho started in the second half of Manchester United’s victory over Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup second-leg semifinal.
United made it to the final, their first cup final since May 2018, thanks to goals from Anthony Martial and Fred. On October 22, the 22-year-old made his last appearance for Manchester United. Because manager Ten Hag wanted him to regain full mental and physical fitness, he has trained separately from his teammates since then.
Ten Hag told Sky Sports about Sancho’s return and his new position with the team: “I believe we have done that in the past. We wanted to change the team dynamic when Bruno was moved out, so we did that as well. Jadon, I am aware that he can also play as a 10.
He can play as a winger or a 10-player, but we frequently switch positions, which I like. The players must maintain their composure in order to occupy the position.” On his return to action, the Englishman received a rousing reception. The young star was welcomed by fans, who will be hoping that he will be healthy and ready to play in Ten Hag’s successful first season in England.
Danny Murphy, a former Liverpool midfielder, has criticized Erik ten Hag, manager of Manchester United, for “whining and winging” about Christian Eriksen’s injury. During the Red Devils’ FA Cup fourth-round match, Eriksen was hurt when Reading striker Andy Carroll made a nasty scissor tackle.
Dane’s injury will keep him out of action for three months, according to tests. Ten Hag demanded more official protection after the match and accused Carroll of dangerous play. However, Murphy has criticized the Dutchman for his remarks.
He sounds like he’s just complaining and winging it. You’re a Premier League player! By the way, Andy Carroll was kicked out, but he should have been kicked out for a different challenge.” Added: “However, the point is, let’s put things in perspective:
we live in a world in which creative, attacking players are protected more than ever! We only rarely suffer serious injuries as a result of poor tackles, which is why I believe we are in a good position. I am not suggesting that we should return to the past, when players could knock seven bells out of one another.
