Erik 10 Hag protected his choice to begin Marcus Rashford unemployed after Manchester United played out a goalless draw at Crystal Palace.
Rashford was presented in the 61st min at Selhurst Park, where midway with the initial fifty percent Alejandro Garnacho– the male that had actually taken his beginning area– struck the bar secs prior to Bruno Fernandes did the exact same.
Palace turned into the competition after the break and stayed in the quest mostly many thanks to an outstanding initiative from goalkeeper Dean Henderson versus his previous club.
Ten Hag stated: “There’s already some speculation and some pundits’ (remarks) and that’s crazy.
“As a person you are not OK when you bring such speculation if you don’t know what’s going on.
“This is just rotation. We have many games to cover and we have more than 11 players and we have to give all the players, if they perform, we will give them the chances.
“And finally we will find out, of course, the players who perform better and who will play more.
“This has nothing to do… I’m very happy with Marcus, with everything. With his defending part, offensive, he scores in this moment.
“He performs very good and so nothing to do (with him) that he was on the bench, just rotation.”
United controlled the initial fifty percent, restricting the hosts to simply round on target from Ebere Eze quickly prior to the break.
Palace collected yourself for the 2nd fifty percent, when Henderson made maybe his finest quit of the night, a jumping conserve to reject Garnacho.
It was after that Andre Onana’s turn to make the highlights bundle as he initially rejected Eddie Nketiah after that alternative Ismaila Sarr’s follow-up from close quarters, a dual save hailed by his supervisor as “brilliant”.
The competition was much more active than the scoreline inevitably recommended, with 6 shots on target and 15 total for the site visitors to 4 and 9 specifically from the hosts.
Ten Hag really felt that “the only thing I can criticise is we were not clinical enough in the box, not decisive enough.”
But asked if, in retrospection, Rashford could have located the completing discuss among his side’s missed out on chances, the one in charge responded: “I have to say Amad (Diallo) is playing good, Garnacho, all the games so far, apart from maybe Liverpool, he has end product.
“We have to play them as well.”
