A big twist! I hope Amorim coach Rashford will leave, the master of how to train players, and Manchester United is no joke at the helm

It is clear why Manchester United replaced Erik ten-Hach and placed Hoobeng Amorim (39) in the position.
Although he is still in his late 30s, his strong charisma, clear tactical plans, and seasoned 'taming the player' skills have been clearly revealed from the beginning of his appointment. In particular, his skill in handling Marcus Rashford, the leading striker who was on the outside of the team, is unusual. He gave Rashford a new motivation, saying he wanted him to stay in the team after he seemed to throw him out of the January transfer window.
British media Daily Mail said on the 18th (Korea Standard Time) 'Amorim Manchester United manager opened up an opportunity to stay in the team, saying that Rashford, who has great talent, can remain at Manchester United and start a new challenge' reported.
Manchester United's leadership, led by owner Jim Ratcliffe, replaced former coach Ten Hach, who had been sluggish at the beginning of the season, and took the helm of Amorim in November. Manager Amorim was somewhat sluggish in the early days of his appointment, but he quickly dominated the team and reorganized it into his own style.
In the end, Manchester City was defeated 2-1 in the 16th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season, showing off Manchester City's changed appearance.

Since then, rumors of Rashford's January transfer have accelerated. Local media, including the Daily Mail, say 'Manchester United intends to put Rashford up for sale in the January transfer market. Rashford seemed to be recovering after Amorim's appointment, but he will not be able to start in the end. There were also reports that Tottenham Hotspur and others are targeting Rashford.
Rashford also seemed to accept this atmosphere. Rashford is quite shocked to be excluded from the Man City squad. He "I personally think I'm ready for a new challenge. It will be hard to leave Manchester United, but I won't say anything negative. The exclusion of the Manchester derby list was disastrous. But it's over, it's won, but (the team) has to move on."

Manager Amorim's change of attitude can be seen as part of a plan to eventually make Rashford move his way. He urged Rashford to wake up as well as other players, sending a message that he could throw away the "Sunggol Youth" at any time, and when Rashford actually said he would leave the team, he changed his attitude, saying, `I want to be the best player.' It deserves to be seen as a master of push and pull.
