Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has dropped Marcus Rashford from his starting XI to face Chelsea on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Rashford has been benched following his dismal performance against Newcastle, which the Red Devils lost 1-0.<\/p>\n

Ten Hag has instead brought Antony into the team, with Alejandro Garnacho on the left flank.<\/p>\n

Rasmus Hojlund, who is yet to score in the Premier League, starts through the middle.<\/p>\n

Rashford has scored just twice in the Premier League, with just one of those goals coming from open play.<\/p>\n

As a result, Ten Hag has opted to go for players who can bring more defensive solidity, after being disappointed with the England international\u2019s contribution against the Magpies.<\/p>\n
