Read our privacy policy Erik ten Hag said the move to scrap replays in the FA Cup was inevitable but sad for British football culture. Ten Hag, who has led Manchester United into the semi-finals for the second consecutive season, sympathises with them but believes the real problem lies with the European and world governing bodies who have expanded other competitions and introduced new ones to add to the workload on top players.

As I said, I feel really sad for the clubs in football but for top players make some space in the schedule.” United face Coventry at Wembley on Sunday with the opportunity to salvage their season if they win silverware but Ten Hag said: “You have to always see the circumstances we have to face but I’m not thinking in this moment about this.” Championship club Coventry, who reached the play-off final last season, are managed by former United striker Mark Robins and Ten Hag added: “They are dangerous.
