And United and England striker Rashford has since issued an apology to the club’s supporters on Twitter.

‘We know we need to improve and that is our sole focus as a team and as a club.’
United dropped yet more points on Sunday as Matty Longstaff scored the winner on his Premier League debut.
The Red Devils will be desperate to bounce back when they host fierce rivals Liverpool after the international break on October 20.
However, the task will be very difficult as Jurgen Klopp’s side head into the clash with maximum points – eight clear of City in second and already 15 ahead of United.
