The mood between United coach Rúben Amorim and Marcus Rashford is still tense. Now the coach again criticized the player publicly.
Marcus Rashford only played for the youth of Manchester United, then for the U18 and finally moved to the professionals in 2016. However, it seems that the future of the 27-year-old wing player does not continue in his club’s jersey. “Red Devils” coach Rúben Amorim said at the weekend after Rashford wasn’t in the squad against Fulham (0: 1): “It is always the same reason: I see what a footballer should do in training and in life – I won’t change every day, every detail.
The Portuguese indirectly criticized Rashford’s attitude and emphasized the importance of hard work: “If you get the maximum out, if you do the right things, we can use every player. (…) But I would Jorge Vital (United 63-year-old Goalkeeper coach, Note D.Red.) Each player who does not give the maximum every day. “
The tense relationship between Amorim and Rashford has been shown since December. Before the city derby against Manchester City, the coach had painted the winger out of the squad. Since then, Rashford has only been on the game day line -up – but he was only on the bench at the home defeat against Newcastle (0: 2).
His non-consideration for the city game caused unrest when Rashford spoke publicly about a possible change. At Amorim, this met with significant rejection, which the coach also made clear at the time.
Amorim is not alone with his critical behavior towards Rashford. United legend Paul Scholes said in a Fantalk about the situation of the wing striker: “I think Marcus let many people down with his attitude. The young players who are new to people look at people like Marcus-he is 27 The right training setting. “
