Paul Scholes questions Erik ten Hag over Marcus Rashford call – ‘Come on’

Paul Scholes has criticised Erik ten Hag's decision to bench Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford despite his recent scoring form.

Following a career-best haul of 30 goals in Ten Hag's first season at Old Trafford, Rashford's tally dipped dramatically last season as he hit the back of the net just eight times.

The England international is already on the rebound this term, however, and recently scored three in two matches against Southampton and Barnsley - nearly half of last year's total.

Yet Rashford was relegated to a substitute's role in Saturday's goalless draw with Crystal Palace, a move that Scholes argues was a mistake by the manager.
