The inside track on the football stories that matter
Marcus Rashford will be back in the Man United squad against Tottenham in the Carabao Cup quarter-final, predicts Simon Jordan.
The Englishman was completely omitted from the squad in Manchester United’s 2-1 victory over rivals Manchester City. Ruben Amorim made the surprising decision to leave both him and Alejandro Garnacho out of the lineup, but the gamble paid off with the win. He likened the situation to Mikel Arteta’s controversial decision to drop then-Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in 2021 due to a disciplinary issue. However, he noted that the two scenarios have key differences, describing the Aubameyang decision as more “divisive”.
He stated: “I would wager that Rashford will be back in the squad for the next game. I’m not sure Rashford is an ‘Aubameyang moment’ for Amorim because Arteta’s decision came later in his tenure at Arsenal, and Aubameyang was arguably more divisive and influential than Rashford.Join the Football Insider WhatsApp channel to get all our exclusives and the breaking transfer news FIRST.
