I don\u2019t want to get sacked becausr of them\u201d-Ruben Amorim reveals real reason why Marcus Rashford was dropped for Manchester derby in astonishing press conference.\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Following Manchester United\u2019s surprising 2-1 victory over local rivals Manchester City, manager Ruben Amorim has explained his decision to drop star winger Marcus Rashford from the matchday squad.<\/p>\n<p>City initially took the lead through Josko Gvardiol, but United staged a late comeback with two quickfire goals from Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo, securing a dramatic Premier League win. However, much of the pre-match drama revolved around the absence of Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho, who were both omitted from United\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n<p>Amorim initially stated that the decision was based on evaluations of their performances in training and their off-pitch conduct. In the post-match press conference, the Portuguese manager provided further clarity, dismissing speculation that Rashford\u2019s exclusion was due to disciplinary issues or poor behavior.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important to clarify: it was not a disciplinary matter,\u201d Amorim said. \u201cNext week, next game, new life\u2014they are fighting for their places.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it was disciplinary, I would say so, and it would be a bigger problem, but it\u2019s not. For me, it\u2019s about everything: performance in training, performance in games, the way you dress, the way you eat, how you engage with teammates, how you push your teammates\u2014all of it matters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen people in the club are losing their jobs, we have to set incredibly high standards. Everyone has to fight for a place in the team. Today, the squad proved that we can leave anyone out and still win if we play together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rashford\u2019s reaction after being substituted early during United\u2019s 2-1 Europa League victory over Viktoria Plzen may have also influenced Amorim\u2019s decision, adding further context to the manager\u2019s emphasis on standards and unity.<\/p>\n<p>With Amorim\u2019s high expectations, Rashford and Garnacho now face the challenge of proving themselves to earn their places back in the squad as United continues to rebuild under their new manager.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following Manchester United\u2019s surprising 2-1 victory over local rivals Manchester City, manager Ruben Amorim has explained his decision to drop star winger Marcus Rashford from the matchday squad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":18194,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18191","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
