Less is more and that was certainly the case when Erik ten Hag addressed Marcus Rashford's situation last week.
The seasoned correspondents say crises used to bring out the best in Sir Alex Ferguson. That is a characteristic shared by Erik ten Hag.
That set the tone for a commanding press conference. Ten Hag spoke quicker and longer during the open section, particularly when he was asked to clarify the "Ajax" quote he gave to a rights holder after the Manchester derby. United fans will approve of that. Rashford has one goal in 14 games, his body language has been appalling and his removal against City was audibly cheered at Old Trafford.
Questions still mount for Rashford. Why attend a nightclub on the day of a derby there was a high probability United would lose? Why did his advisers or confidants not cancel it? United pandered to Pogba and Anthony Martial during Jose Mourinho's final months and they wielded the power during Solskjaer's soft reign. Kowtowing to underperforming players again would signal a greater regression than the results.
