Marcus Rashford issues five-word message after Man United's victory over Fulham - as Ruben Amorim says he'd rather play his goalkeeper coach

Marcus Rashford issued a brief message after sitting out Manchester United's win at Fulham, where Ruben Amorim made incendiary remarks on the forward. Lisandro Martinez's strike secured a 1-0 victory for Amorim's side on a night when strikers Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee again failed to make an impact, raising questions over whether Rashford could earn a shock recall if he does not leave.

But Amorim instead aimed an astonishing dig at the 27-year-old, declaring he would rather play his 63-year-old goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital. Rashford has not appeared for the last 11 games and has not yet secured a loan move away from Old Trafford despite holding talks with several clubs.

The last time the attacker pulled on a United jersey was during the Europa League win over Viktoria Plzen on December 12, and Rashford was promptly dropped entirely for the Manchester derby over his attitude during training. Amorim also confirmed that is still the reason behind Rashford's absence, but his uncertain future has not deterred him from continuing to support his boyhood club.
