The news that Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has been left out of the Premier League fixture list has made waves. United legend Neville expressed his opinion on the incident, he thinks that coach Amorim may have made a precise choice this time, and Rashford himself may also realize that leaving United may be a wise move for personal development.
Neville recalls a time not so long ago when, if he had been asked about the possibility of Rashford leaving in January, he would have dismissed it out of hand. But today, the situation has changed. He emphasized that at a top club, a player's departure or departure becoming a weekly hot topic of discussion is not only a distraction for the manager, but also a hot topic for the media, which could be a relief for both parties.
Citing Sancho's performance at Chelsea and McTominay's at Napoli as examples, Neville points out that sometimes players can find a wider stage on other platforms after leaving United instead. He believes that Rashford may have realized this and believes that leaving United can bring him new opportunities and challenges.
However, Neville also said that United is in dire need of change. He pointed out that over the past decade, United have relied on the same players but failed to achieve the desired results. United need to reshape the team culture and must make immediate decisions on players who are not suitable or capable enough.
Facing Amorim, Neville knows he has a heavy responsibility. With all five previous managers failing to help United out of the doldrums, Amorim needs to make smart decisions to protect himself and the club. Neville believes that ditching Rashford could be one of the right decisions for Amorim to make for the club and himself.
