Rashford’s absence and Fernandes’ red card add to Manchester United’s woes after a 2-0 loss to Wolves.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has vowed to stick to his vision despite his team’s ongoing challenges, highlighted by a 2-0 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.
The game marked another tough outing for United, who were reduced to 10 men early in the second half when captain Bruno Fernandes received his third red card of the season. Adding to the team’s issues is the ongoing absence of Marcus Rashford, who hasn’t played since being dropped for the Manchester derby on December 16.
Amorim, speaking after the defeat, remained resolute in his approach:
“We have to be the same professionals, the same guys, winning or losing. Losing, I have to be stronger. I will continue with my idea until the end.”
The Rashford Question Lingers
Rashford’s absence has been a recurring topic of discussion. When asked if the forward had done enough to warrant a recall, Amorim offered a pointed response:
“If he’s not here, you can make your mind up.”
This comes after Rashford publicly stated his desire for a “new start,” adding fuel to speculation about his future at the club.
Match Challenges
United struggled against Wolves, particularly after being reduced to 10 men. Amorim acknowledged the difficulty but praised his team’s effort:
“It was really hard with the sending off. Even with one less guy, we tried, and I think we were close to something. But Wolves scored the second on the transition, and that sealed it.”
Looking Ahead
With their next match against Newcastle looming on December 30, Amorim emphasized the importance of focus and resilience:
“It’s so tough to win games in this league with 11 men. With 10 men, it’s even more difficult. We have to focus on that.”
As United navigate these turbulent times, Amorim’s unwavering belief in his philosophy will undoubtedly shape the team’s response in the weeks ahead.
