Or is he genuinely not training the way he wants him to train? Jadon would say and agree he hasn\u2019t lived up to the hype yet, and the fee,&#8217; said Ferdinand on his Five YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/18\/20\/75567999-12532593-image-a-2_1695063747783.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Rio Ferdinand has questioned Manchester United&#8217;s disciplinary handling of Jadon Sancho<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/18\/20\/75568011-12532593-image-m-4_1695063755814.jpg\" height=\"427\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>United boss Erik ten Hag (left) publicly criticised Sancho (right) for his performance levels in training<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The manager has gone \u2018this is my last chance\u2019, I can\u2019t get anything else out of him so I\u2019ll make it public and see if that public embarrassment and his pride gets pressed enough and he comes back with a performance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He did it to Rashford.
