Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim said that he needs Marcus Rashford when the striker is at his best, reported sportal.bg.
Naturally, the situation surrounding the striker was the main topic before tomorrow's match of the “Red Devils” against Tottenham in the 1/4-finals of the “Carabao Cup”, after he and Alejandro Garnacho were left out of the group for Sunday's derby against Manchester City. Yesterday, a statement appeared from the Manchester United teenager, who says that he is ready for a new challenge.
“This club needs great talents and he is one. Rashford just needs to raise the level at which he performs and my focus is precisely on that. I just want to help him. We will try different options to do this so that he can reach his best level, which he has shown in the past. I haven't spoken to him yet because we had a day off yesterday. I think he is right about the new challenge because here we have a new challenge, the biggest in football, we are in a difficult situation and I hope the players are ready. I speak to a lot of players during training.
I am not thinking about the future now, my focus right now is for all the players to be in their best condition and to prepare them for the match against Tottenham. I don't think this situation hinders the players, I was a player too and I know that they can be a bit selfish when they are focused on their own performance and the desire to win their place in the team. We still have one training session and only then will I judge who will be in the group. The situation of Rashford and Garnacho is the same as the other players. "I expect the best from every player," Amorim commented.
