Ruben Amorim's six digs at Marcus Rashford as Man Utd feud takes toxic turn

On Sunday night Ruben Amorim delivered a brutal dig at Marcus Rashford by questioning the wantaway Manchester United forward's commitment. Rashford is still waiting to hear if he can find a new club with just a week remaining in the January transfer window but the prospect of him being welcomed back into Amorim's plans should a move fail to materialise presently appears nigh on impossible.
And going through the United head coach's comments on Rashford since he replaced Erik ten Hag in November has pointed to a gradual deterioration in a relationship that began promisingly as Rashford scored three times in Amorim's first two goals in charge.
Here are the key comments from Amorim over the past two months. After Rashford found the net twice against Everton, Amorim offered some qualified praise for the England striker. “Yeah, he can do so much,” said Amorim. “So he has to continue to improve, he has the ability to do it, he’s already proved that.
“He can play so much better, like the other guys, but it was a good performance and tomorrow he has to start to recover and think about Arsenal.”. After footage surfaced of Rashford failing to stay with the rest of his team-mates and clap their away support after the 2-0 defeat at Arsenal two days previous, Amorim reminded them of the importance of showing appreciation towards the fans.
