Erik ten Hag in agreement with Gareth Southgate over Marcus Rashford trip to New York

Erik ten Hag saw Marcus Rashford's trip to New York as a "positive" despite the Manchester United star copping criticism.

The forward couldn't play for England during the international break due to a fitness issue and opted to spend a few days in the Big Apple with his partner. The Three Lions picked up two wins without him, but the decision to pull out of the squad and then jet off divided opinion.

Ten Hag had no issue with his player flying across the Atlantic, though, and was pleased he took the opportunity to enjoy some downtime. United's schedule has been hectic as they battle in several competitions and Rashford has excelled - scoring more goals than ever before in a season.
