Ruben Amorim
Ruben Amorim’s decision was made following Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho being left out of the Manchester United team and instructed to train separately.
Ruben Amorim said “It’s important to say why: was not a disciplinary thing. Amorim Next week, next game, new life, they are fighting for their places.”
Amorim further elaborated on training expectations and performance standards within the team and how it influences player selection.
Ruben Amorim said “I’m going to say again was not a disciplinary thing. It’s the small details. You can see the games like I see, there are some things that have to change.”
This approach offered Rashford the possibility of a swift return to the team, reflecting that his exclusion was lack of performance-related rather than disciplinary. Rashford supported the team positively even during his absence.
Ruben Amorim said “If it was disciplinary, I would say that here and it will be a bigger problem but was not that. Sometimes I want to improve my players and you understand that for so long. We tried for example with Rash, it does not work. Let’s continue to do the same thing or try something different?”
