ERIK TEN HAG has left Jadon Sancho to stew after heading off on holiday following their public war of words.
The Manchester United and England star was one of the few players training at Carrington, with most team-mates off on international duty.

Boss Ten Hag and his coaching staff have taken a short break.
It means Sancho, whose career at Old Trafford hangs in the balance, is unlikely to see the Dutchman until next week.
Sancho has yet to speak to Ten Hag after his extraordinary attack on the manager on Sunday night.
Following the 3-1 loss to Arsenal, Ten Hag revealed the ex-Borussia Dortmund winger had been axed from the United squad because of his “performances in training”.
But Sancho hit back and said: “I will not allow people saying things that are completely untrue.
“I have conducted myself very well in training this week. I believe there are other reasons for this matter that I won’t go into.
“I’ve been a scapegoat for a long time which isn’t fair.”
Ten Hag has the full backing of United’s board over his decision to drop Sancho from the squad.
The Dutch coach has repeatedly impressed on United’s players the importance of being professional and not letting their standards drop.
Yet Ten Hag still hopes Sancho, who joined from Dortmund for £73million in 2021, can turn his career around.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has completely transformed his United career after he was earlier frozen out by Ten Hag.
Marcus Rashford also listened to Ten Hag’s advice — and delivered his best ever season for United last term.

Red Devils legend Rio Ferdinand says Sancho has backed himself into a corner.
He reckons the only options moving forward are a switch to Saudi Arabia before the transfer window there closes on Thursday or a long spell on the bench.
Ferdinand, 44, said: “There are two ways this ends.
“There’s only one window open now — and that’s Saudi. Or you’re on the bench or not getting in the squad for the rest of the season.”
Former Old Trafford keeper Ben Foster claims the 23-year-old is lucky that Ten Hag is the manager and not Sir Alex Ferguson.
Foster added: “It’s crazy. If Alex Ferguson is manager at this moment in time of Manchester United, and Jadon Sancho does this, he will never see the light of day again for Man United.
“He’ll never play for this club, he’ll never be allowed in the training ground. You are done.
“It’s not going to help you. It’s petulant, it’s reactive, it’s emotional and it’s disrespectful.”
