Bold prediction - 'Rashford will be back in Amorim's team scoring goals'
BBC Radio Manchester's Gaz Drinkwater believes Marcus Rashford will stay at Manchester United, saying Ruben Amorim's criticism after the club's win at Fulham was to challenge the 27-year-old to get back in the team.Speaking on the latest episode of The Devil's Advocate, Drinkwater argued the boss' tough choice of words was a message to the England striker. "It tells me Ruben Amorim doesn't necessarily want to sell Marcus Rashford," Drinkwater said. "It seems he's putting a challenge on Rashford - 'train properly and you will be in my team'."There is a door open."It's the way Rashford takes this. What worries me is that as soon as the comments were said, he put on his Instagram story: 'Great game, boys'. Is this him just trying to paint himself in a good light because he knows he's getting criticised by the manager?"If United were settled on selling Rashford and everyone wanted him gone including Amorim, he would have just said: 'I've just not selected him'."Here's a prediction - Rashford doesn't go anywhere and is back in Ruben Amorim's team in the next two weeks and he's scoring goals."
