Anthony Martial misses Crystal Palace clash after suffering a 'setback' despite scoring in Carabao Cup win over Nottingham Forest... as Erik ten Hag insists 'we have to be patient' with the Frenchman missing AGAIN

Anthony Martial was not involved in Manchester United's match day squad to face Crystal Palace after the French striker suffered a 'setback' in his return from injury.

Erik ten Hag confirmed that United's star forward would be absent after having yet another complication after Wednesday's 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest.

Martial was on the scoresheet for his side in the Carabao Cup semi-final win, having only then returned to the side for the first time since the Manchester Derby earlier in January.

Jadon Sancho also made a long-awaited comeback, having been absent since October after Ten Hag deemed him mentally and physically unfit to play for the first team.
