Rashford “had to leave”

Rashford joined Aston Villa on loan until the end of the season, officially ending the transfer saga.

Amorim said the England international had to be exiled due to his attitude in the training.

“What I say is I couldn’t put Marcus to see the way you’re supposed to play football and to train the way I see it,” Amorim said.

“And sometimes you have one player who is really good with one coach and the same player with another coach is different. I just wish the best to Rashford and Unai Emery, and they can connect because he’s a very good player.”

It’s all about adapting

Rashford scored the first goal of Amorim’s reign in the 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town in November.

He also started games against Everton and Viktoria Plzen, but Amorim dropped him from the squad for the Manchester derby in December.

This decision became a key factor in Rashford’s request to leave Old Trafford.

“The case was some of the guys don’t adapt the way I see football, the other guys adapt, and we are trying to build the team,” Amorim said.

“It’s something that you feel, as a coach and a player. It’s quite normal, it happened with a lot of coaches. The important thing is that I’m here saying it was my decision.”
