As stated by the Express, Erik ten Hag sent a blunt message to Manchester United’s sidelined player, Jadon Sancho after witnessing his team’s impressive Carabao Cup victory over Crystal Palace.
The fans were happy to see such a dominant display by the home side, and it marked one of United’s standout performances of the season so far.
However, Sancho was noticeably absent from Ten Hag’s squad for the fifth consecutive game. The goals came from Garnacho, Casemiro, and Anthony Martial as the Red Devils comfortably advanced to the fourth round.

The manager’s response to Sancho’s absence was clear: the player remains excluded from all first-team activities until he apologizes to the Dutch manager for accusing him of dishonesty on social media in early September.
When asked for an update on Sancho’s potential return, Ten Hag said:
“It’s up to him. I don’t talk about players who are not available.”
The ongoing dispute between the manager and the player has yet to find a solution, casting doubt on Sancho’s future with Man United.
Ten Hag’s statement emphasizes that the English star’s next steps and dedication to the team will determine his path forward. The Red Devils are gearing up for their upcoming Premier League match against Crystal Palace this weekend.
