Erik ten Hag has confirmed that he has named Marcus Rashford on the bench against Wolves because of an 'internal disciplinary' issue involving the forward..
United are looking to end the year on a high when they travel to face Wolves in the Premier League this lunchtime, but will have to do so without the in-form striker.
Ten Hag has made one change to the side that defeated Nottingham Forest in midweek, with Alejandro Garnacho replacing Rashford in attack.

Diogo Dalot and Lisandro Martinez both miss out on places in the matchday squad following their return to training after the World Cup.
When asked why the England forward was missing from the start, Ten Hag told BT Sport: "Internal disciplinary. No [details]. Our rules. Now focus on the game. He is in very good form and no-one can play all the games."
The United manager has put his faith in teenage forward Garnacho to start instead of him on the left wing, and is confident that he will be up to the challenge.
He added: "We have a good team and Alejandro comes in. He did really well in the last couple of games and made huge progress. I am expecting him to contribute and expecting him to bring his skills."
