How Man Utd stars now feel about Amorim’s treatment of Rashford - The Athletic

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim’s decision to drop Marcus Rashford against Manchester City in December was seen by his teammates as highly significant, according to The Athletic.

Rashford’s future appears to lie away from the Old Trafford club as he has not featured in any of their last seven matches.

His application in training and effort in matches has been questioned in recent months, and Man United players are on board with Amorim’s attempts to set a standard.

He has been constantly linked with a January transfer window departure, and it is widely believed he wants to leave as soon as possible as he is not in Amorim’s plans.

Amorim is taking no prisoners in his bid to get Man United firing on all cylinders again, and losing Rashford could be a much-needed sacrifice that must be made.

The Englishman is not the only big player who could leave the Theatre of Dreams this month, with Alejandro Garnacho also linked with a potential departure.

The Argentine has started just three of the last ten games, and Amorim appears willing to let him go.

Man United believe selling Garnacho will help boost their chances in the bid to comply with Profit and Sustainability Rules.

Their willingness to sell a player who was once considered untouchable speaks volumes.

Standards have been allowed to decline since Sir Alex Ferguson left in 2013, and United are ready to take the tough decisions and back their new boss.

More ruthless transfer decisions are expected in the summer as a major squad overhaul is on the cards, and fans will hope that can help get the club back to the top of football.
