Furious Palmeiras boss Abel Ferreira tells Erik ten Hag to 'SHUT UP' after the Man United boss made complaints over the Premier League's stacked schedule - insisting his Brazilian side have to play 16 games by the end of May

Erik ten Hag's complaints over Manchester United's fixture congestion have fallen on unsympathetic ears in Brazil, after the Dutchman was met with rebuttal from the boss of Palmeiras.

Ten Hag had hit out at the scheduling for his side in the wake of their 2-0 win over Everton on Saturday, with United set for a jam-packed April with nine games across the month.

But star man Marcus Rashford picked up a groin injury during the game, which prompted the 53-year-old's comments, with the English forward set for a scan to ascertain the extent of the damage.
