Erik ten Hag calls on five Man Utd players to score more goals and excludes Wout Weghorst

Erik ten Hag has called on his Manchester United team to spread around the goals to decrease the scoring burden on the in-form Marcus Rashford.

United have bagged 88 goals across all competitions this season with 27 of them coming through Rashford, who has acted as the talisman for United’s side this campaign. The club opened talks over a new contract with the striker after he returned from World Cup duty.

Yet Ten Hag is wary that United need to share more goals throughout the team if they are to truly take the step up to the top level. Outside of Rashford, the talismanic Bruno Fernandes is the only other United star to have hit double figures in terms of goals this campaign.
