Erik ten Hag has said it was a risk to drop Marcus Rashford to the bench but ‘if you want to create a winning attitude and culture you have to go this way’
. “If it is the right person, the right characters they will react like this,” Ten Hag said. “In relation to Marcus I was quite convinced, knowing him for seven or eight months, that I could expect this reaction he showed.”
The Cup win was United’s seventh consecutive victory but Ten Hag warned against complacency. “You have to be watchful for this, we have to keep this focus and concentration,” he said. “We have to work well during the days, in training. When we go to games we have to start with the right attitude. When we don’t, the level is that high you get hammered. If you don’t bring the mental or physical output then you get hammered.”
Anthony Martial is United’s next highest scorer with five goals but the manager is not concerned about being over-reliant on Rashford. “[At the moment] Anthony is being subbed because he can’t match the load [after injury],” he said. “That is why we are looking for another striker. The quality of Anthony Martial is so important for our game, with his movements, his ball security, the pressing he brings.enjoys a benefit from that. I am not concerned that only Marcus Rashford scores goals.
