Manchester United Double winner Gary Pallister insists there can be a way back for Erik ten Hag and Jadon Sancho.
Manager Ten Hag has banished Sancho from senior training after being criticised by the winger online.
"The war of words we would have would probably be had behind closed doors (when I was a player) and wasn't there in public," Pallister told 888Sport.
"Erik felt he needed to go public with the reasons why he left Sancho out and I think that's probably a reaction from Jadon to come back fighting.
"It has been a difficult period for the club. Ten Hag has come in, he's been very disciplined by the looks of it, behind the scenes.
"We've heard of different occasions when he's come down and hard on players.
"I think I read something about a clear the air chat. We want to see a Jadon Sancho as the player that he was at Dortmund because he looked like an exceptional talent.
"We've seen it in bits and starts here at United but not enough. He's still got a lot to prove in a United shirt I would think.
"It's not it's not always just centred around football, you never know what's going on in a player's mind, what's going on in his background, his family life, or anything like that, it's an understanding of everything."
