Ruben Amorim Excludes Rashford, Garnacho for Derby

Ruben Amorim, the new Manchester United head coach, controversially dropped key players Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho from the squad for the Manchester derby, a move that has raised eyebrows and speculation. Despite their absence, United secured a 2-1 victory, with Amad Diallo scoring the decisive late goal. Former player Rio Ferdinand suggested that the decision may have stemmed from the players' attitudes during training, implying they might not have displayed the proper respect to staff members. Amorim emphasized his commitment to a harmonious team culture and has been praised for his assertive leadership. Ferdinand noted that Amorim’s approach could lead to a more disciplined environment, contrasting it with previous management styles. This incident has left uncertainty regarding the futures of Rashford and Garnacho at the club.
