The manager of Manchester United, Ruben Amorim has further highlighted the reason outcasts striker, Marcus Rashford cannot make his team

Amorim say that he believes the club’s 63-year-old goalkeeper coach, Jorge Vital has a better chance of making his team than outcast striker Marcus Rashford.

England international Rashford has not played for United for the past six weeks and was again out of the squad for the narrow 1-0 win at Fulham on Sunday.

“Today on the bench we missed a bit of pace to change the game but I prefer it like this, I will put (in) Vital before I put (in) a player who doesn’t give the maximum every day, so I will not change in that department,” said Amorim.

He added: “It’s always the same reason (why Rashford is not playing).

“The reason is the training, what I think a footballer should do in training, in life and every day. If things don’t change, I will not change.

“It’s the same situation for every player. If you do the maximum and the right things then we can use every player.”

Despite the impasse between club and player, the 27-year-old Rashford still took to social media to congratulate his team-mates for their 1-0 victory.

“Congratulations on the win lads,” he posted on Instagram.

United’s goal at Fulham came in the 78th minute through defender Lisandro Martinez whose long-range deflected effort looped over Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno
