Ten Hag urges fans to back Rashford

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag reaffirmed his belief in Marcus Rashford's capabilities at Friday's pre-match press conference at Carrington.

The forward missed Wednesday night's 4-2 victory over Sheffield United, after picking up an injury in last weekend's Emirates FA Cup semi-final against Coventry City.

Ten Hag implied that Rashford is unlikely to feature in Saturday's match with Burnley, either, but was quizzed by journalists about the player's form and challenging season so far.

The Dutchman is optimistic that the England international can recapture his best form before the season concludes.
