Many of Man Utd's first-team regulars are away representing their countries but those on the fringes can use the time to impress the manager.
Many of Manchester United's stars are away on international duty over the next week but the work never stops at Carrington.
But while those across the globe look to impress Ten Hag from afar, many of United's fringe players remain much closer to home. Training over the next few days won't just be a chance to keep the blood flowing but to make an impression, given there is less competition to stand out.The most obvious of those wanting to stand out is Jadon Sancho.
Ten Hag's decision to call out Sancho was even more surprising when cut against his staunch defence of Anthony Martial. The French international has started United's last two matches upfront and been completely ineffective on both occasions - so much so that Hojlund had more impact in 23 minutes off the bench against Arsenal.
