This is my Final answer on Marcus Rashford. This is the reason reason I benched him. I came to this club to coach but it seems like the problem in this club huge. So have tell everyone the reason Marcus Rashford has not been playing for me not to loose my Job”-Ruben Amorim gives most damning reply yet when asked about Marcus Rashford after her was no where to be found after Wolves lost.

Rúben Amorim delivered a brutally honest response when asked about Marcus Rashford’s absence during Manchester United’s disappointing 2-0 defeat against Wolves at Molineux.

The 39-year-old manager saw his side put in another poor performance, leaving United in 14th place in the Premier League, just seven points clear of the relegation zone. The match was marred by captain Bruno Fernandes receiving a red card for a second bookable offense just 47 minutes in. Wolves capitalized with a Matheus Cunha corner goal in the 58th minute, and Hwang Hee-chan sealed the victory with a second goal in the 99th minute.

While Amorim expressed his dissatisfaction with the team’s overall display, it was his comments on Rashford, 27, that captured the most attention.

Rashford was once again absent from the squad, following his recent remarks about being “ready for a new challenge and the next steps” in an interview with Henry Winter on December 17. Speaking to Prime Video, Amorim offered a blunt explanation for the forward’s continued omission:

“It’s always the same reason. We have to be the same professionals… the same guys, winning or losing. Losing, I have to be stronger. I will continue with my idea until the end.”

When pressed further on whether Rashford had been showing any improvement in training, Amorim tersely replied, “If he’s not here, you can make up your mind.”

Rashford has now missed United’s last four fixtures, including matches against Manchester City, Tottenham, Bournemouth, and Wolves. His exclusion comes amid growing speculation about a potential transfer, with PSG and Saudi Arabian clubs emerging as favorites to secure his signature.

Fan Reactions
Amorim’s remarks sparked mixed reactions from fans on social media. Some defended Rashford, while others criticized his recent form and questioned his impact on the team:

One fan said: “He will not win a game until he brings back Rashford, the most important player at Man United in the last 4 years.”
Another asked: “Could this poor performance have something to do with Rashford’s absence??”
A third fan argued: “Rashford must go! As soon as POSSIBLE.”
Others were less sympathetic, with one stating: “Rashford has scored like 10 goals in the past 2 years. Why do people think he would have a positive impact on United?”
Another added: “They should stop asking him about Rashford.”
What’s Next for United?
United will next host Newcastle United at Old Trafford on December 30 before traveling to Anfield to face Liverpool on January 5. As the January transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on the ongoing Rashford saga and how it impacts the club’s performance during this turbulent period.

Rúben Amorim’s comments regarding Marcus Rashford’s absence from Manchester United during their 2-0 loss to Wolves have stirred significant discussion. The manager was notably blunt, attributing Rashford’s omission to a lack of professional consistency and reinforcing his stance that the team needs to remain strong regardless of results. His remarks followed Rashford’s recent comments about seeking a new challenge, which further fueled speculation about the forward’s future.

Rashford’s absence from the squad for the last four matches, including key games against Manchester City, Tottenham, and Bournemouth, has sparked mixed fan reactions. While some supporters argue that Rashford is crucial to United’s success and question whether the team’s struggles are linked to his exclusion, others have become increasingly critical, pointing to his recent form and inconsistent contributions.

As United prepares for matches against Newcastle and Liverpool, attention will likely remain on the Rashford situation. With the January transfer window fast approaching, Rashford’s potential departure, linked to interest from PSG and Saudi clubs, could become a pivotal factor in the club’s strategy and performance.
