United fans are furious at England coach's antics toward this star

Manchester United have had a good first half of the season under their new manager following their opening day 4-0 humbling by Brentford in the Premier League. The Red Devils had an immediate turnaround after that defeat and even set up an unbeaten run in the process.

Ten Hag has tried out different team setups, tactics, and even tempo to grasp how to get the best out of his current United squad and his efforts have been rewarded with several gems coming to life in his team. The rise of Marcus Rashford is one to appreciate.

The Englishman was closer to the exit door than ever before with PSG reportedly ready to snap him up from Manchester as part of their Project Mbappe. But Ten Hag and the United board remained adamant about his stay at Old Trafford.

Their decision to retain him has set United on the course of a great season, with Rashford leading the line. Ten Hag backed him to be number nine and he has so far chipped in nine goals and three assists to United's cause in this campaign and is currently their top scorer.

WHY ARE YOU UNITED FANS CALLING SOUTHGATE?

Rashford impressive form earned him a spot in Southgate's World Cup squad in Qatar. The United star marked his tournament debut with a goal against Iran after coming on as a substitute. His short cameo in the game was followed by another in England's goalless draw against the USA in game two. Rashford showed flashes of his brilliance once again to the delight of fans who wish that he had started the game to have a better impact but hope he will start in their final group game.
