Marcus Rashford was dropped from the starting line up for Manchester United's win over Wolves because he overslept and missed a team meeting.
The 25-year-old was demoted to a place on the bench for United's trip to Molineux on Saturday lunchtime after missing a team meeting earlier in the week. Erik ten Hag confirmed ahead of the game that Rashford had lost his place in the attack because of an 'internal disciplinary' issue involving the forward.
