This week players behaving badly…Marcus Rashford was fined by Erik Ten Hag recently after pictures emerged of his boozy bender in Belfast; it was a costly night out for the England striker – he was fined two weeks wages £650,000 after phoning in sick and missing training.
it’s the the second time Rashford attracted criticism this season – the first was when he was seen out on the town celebrating his birthday hours after United lost 3-0 in the Manchester derby.
So if you’re in the boardroom, how do you deal with a situation like that? And what about players who refuse to play which was the situation with Alex Pritchard at Sunderland recently?
