Marcus Rashford singled out in Man Utd 'dressing room leak' amid reports of 'toxic atmosphere'

Worrying times for United boss Erik ten Hag.

Marcus Rashford could be dropped by Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag amid concerns over his loss of form.

Ten Hag finds himself under huge pressure after Tuesday's shock 3-2 defeat to Galatasaray in the Champions League.

United have now lost six of their last 10 matches and are currently 10th in the Premier League after their disappointing start.

Rashford scored 30 goals in all competitions last season but has managed just one in the current campaign, with his lack of form a major worry for Ten Hag.

The Mirror report that at least one member of Ten Hag's coaching staff is understood to have expressed concerns over Rashford's body language and decision-making in matches.

While he set up Rasmus Hojlund for the opening goal against Galatasaray, Rashford missed a huge opportunity later in the match – opting to square the ball to a teammate when through on goal.

“United sources have indicated there are serious concerns behind the scenes over Rashford's loss of form, with the 25-year-old struggling to justify his continued selection," added the report.

Rashford only penned a new five-year deal worth a reported £375,000-a-week with United in July.

The forward's lack of confidence in front of goal is just one problem for Ten Hag to solve, the club currently struggling with a sizeable injury list and the situation surrounding Jadon Sancho yet to be resolved.

The winger is currently banished from the first-team squad after refusing to apologise to Ten Hag following a dispute over his efforts in training.

Antony returned to the fold against Galatasaray but is still fighting domestic abuse allegations, while Mason Greenwood's long-term future is a question that is yet to be answered with the player currently on loan at Getafe.

In addition to Sancho, several other United players are reported to be unhappy with their current roles under Ten Hag – with The Independent claiming the atmosphere inside the dressing room and among general staff is now 'toxic'.

Ten Hag will be desperate for a positive result this weekend, when United host Brentford at Old Trafford on Saturday.
