The lack of attitude and willingness seen in Marcus Rashford has led to huge criticism over the past 18 months.
Rashford has been excluded from United’s last 11 matchday squads, with Ruben Amorim citing training standards as the reason.
Following Sunday’s 1-0 win at Fulham, Amorim stated: “The reason is the training, what I think a footballer should do in training, in life, and every day.
“I will put (in) Vital before I put (in) a player who doesn’t give the maximum every day,” referring to his 63-year-old goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital.

On The Overlap Fan Debate, Paul Scholes expressed disappointment in Rashford, saying: “I think Marcus has let a lot of people down really, with his attitude, and I think that’s what the manager is trying to say.
“You think of the young players coming through the team, think of (Alejandro) Garnacho, they’re looking up to people like Marcus now – he’s 27 years of age, and he’s clearly not training properly.
“I remember years ago when I told the manager (Sir Alex Ferguson) I didn’t want to play in that Arsenal game… he said to me ‘the worst thing you did is let your team-mates down.’
“That really stuck with me because I wasn’t really thinking about that – and now I think Marcus Rashford, he’s doing exactly the same.
“OK, he’s not refusing to play, but in the way he’s behaving and the way he’s training.
“In a way he is saying I don’t want to be involved with these.
“So I think the fact of letting your team-mates down in that dressing room – he should be banished from the dressing room really.
“If he’s in and around that and young people are seeing that as an example, the sooner he’s gone, the better.”
Rashford had hinted at a departure in an interview with journalist Henry Winter after the Manchester derby in December.
He famously stated he was “ready for a new challenge.”
His next destination remains to be unseen – one who some United fans will be keen to see the back of.
