Erik ten Hag tells Jadon Sancho to show 'much more improvement' following his promising start to the season... as the Man United boss reveals he has 'specific' plans for the forward after his England snub

Erik ten Hag has challenged Jadon Sancho to show 'much more improvement' as the Manchester United boss revealed he has 'specific' plans for the in-form forward during the upcoming international break.

Sancho has made a promising start to the season under Ten Hag, scoring his third goal of the campaign in United's 2-0 win over Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League on Thursday.

But the 22-year-old's form has not been enough to earn a recall in Gareth Southgate's England squad, with his omission raising eyebrows across the game.
