Marcus Rashford will return to the team when he is due, according to Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag.
Rashford was benched by Ten Hag during Wednesday’s 2-1 victory over Chelsea.
This came after a subpar performance in the four days prior loss against Newcastle United.
With just two goals in 19 appearances this season, Rashford has battled with form the whole year.
In an interview with media on Friday, Ten Hag stated that Rashford must prove his worth to the team in the same manner as Scott McTominay and Harry Maguire had battled their way back into the starting lineup.
“Rashford is a fantastic, talented player. It is not feasible with eleven players. He isn’t in the same form as he was last year and can’t play every game, but I have no doubt that he will improve.
“What I mentioned regarding Harry Maguire and Scott McTominay is up to them.” Ten Hag assured reporters prior to their matchup with Bournemouth that “the team will always line themselves up and the best players who form the best team will play.”
