Marcus Rashford might be about to do the \u2018unthinkable\u2019 while we\u2019re supposed to believe that Alejandro Garnacho joining Napoli would be his nightmare scenario.<\/p>\n

Responder<\/strong>
\nMarcus Rashford is the biggest story in football if you ignore the fact that Tottenham are a basket-case of a football club. Ruben Amorim really does know to create headlines; saying he would rather pick his aged goalkeeper coach<\/strong><\/a> was a true gift.<\/p>\n

But you know what this isn\u2019t, MailOnline<\/strong>? It\u2019s not a \u2018war of words\u2019. Not even close.<\/p>\n

You cannot have a \u2018war of words\u2019 when one party has literally said nothing since mid-December and has actively briefed that he has no problem with the Manchester United manager.<\/p>\n

\u2018RUBEN\u2019S RASHFORD ROW\u2019 it absolutely is not. Only married couples \u2018ROW\u2019 via the medium of one sarcastic comment and stoic, quietly seething silence from the other party.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the only thing Rashford has said in recent days is \u2018congratulations on the win lads\u2019 or \u2013 as some outlets would have it \u2013 \u2018Marcus Rashford sends message to Man United teammates after he\u2019s axed again\u2019.<\/p>\n

The Express<\/strong> go even further, claiming: \u2018Marcus Rashford responds immediately after Ruben Amorim lets rip at Man Utd outcast.\u2019<\/p>\n

To \u2018respond\u2019 is to \u2018say or do something as a reaction to something that has been said or done\u2019. He didn\u2019t \u2018respond\u2019, did he? He posted an anodyne congratulatory message, probably before he even saw Amorim\u2019s quotes.<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Many waited eagerly to see whether Rashford would respond. Soon after the game he did, but instead of ramping up his strained relationship with Amorim, he focused on sending a positive message to his team-mates. \u201cCongratulations on the win lads,\u201d he wrote.\u2019<\/p>\n

<\/smartframe-embed><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So you \u2018waited eagerly\u2019 but he responded \u2018immediately\u2019? Almost like it wasn\u2019t a response at all.<\/p>\n

Do you know the way to quote Jose?<\/strong>
\nThere\u2019s Marcus gold to mine so the Express<\/strong> pile it on\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Erik ten Hag and Jose Mourinho agreed on Marcus Rashford before Ruben Amorim decision\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

How long before<\/em>? Well in Mourinho\u2019s case over six years before.<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Ruben Amorim has hinted Marcus Rashford\u2019s time at Manchester United is drawing to a close due to concerns that have been echoed by both Jose Mourinho and Erik ten Hag.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That\u2019s not how echoes work, fellas.<\/p>\n

Their source of course is their Reach sister website the Mirror<\/strong>, who opt for this:<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Erik ten Hag and Jose Mourinho in agreement as Ruben Amorim makes Marcus Rashford decision\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u2018As\u2019 is doing a f*** of a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. As the Mirror concede way too far down the piece:<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Mourinho famously questioned Rashford\u2019s maturity levels after his tenure with the Red Devils came to a close. Speaking with Hristo Stoichkov after his departure in 2018, the 62-year-old said: \u201cI think kids these days have a different social life than us, and players have around them an entourage, and I mean a personal entourage, the people that surround them, that protect them more, give them more affection, more excuses.\u201d\u2018<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Mourinho then named Rashford along with three other Manchester United players. In 2018. He was only 20; of course he bloody lacked maturity.<\/p>\n

The Unthinkable<\/strong>
\n\u2018Marcus Rashford could be about to do the unthinkable after being destroyed by Man Utd boss Ruben Amorim\u2019 is quite the headline from GB News<\/strong>, who are invested in bringing down the brazen child-feeder.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s \u2018unthinkable\u2019? Go on strike? Go postal? Join West Ham?<\/strong><\/a> By definition we probably could not think of the lengths to which he could fall\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Yet the onus is now on the player to do the unthinkable and dedicate his life to United, a club crying out for the glory days of old.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Oh do f*** off.<\/p>\n

Please God don\u2019t make me leave Man Utd\u2026
\n<\/strong>Elsewhere in Manchester United clicks land, \u2018Ruben Amorim comments confirm Alejandro Garnacho\u2019s worst Man Utd fears\u2019, according to the Mirror<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Are his \u2018worst fears\u2019 really that he could have to leave Manchester United and join either Napoli (top of Serie A) or Chelsea (sixth in the Premier League table<\/strong><\/a>)? Let\u2019s face it, if he leaves United then he will be failing upwards<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ruben Amorim has hinted that Alejandro Garnacho could leave Manchester United after failing a two-month long task,\u2019 apparently.<\/p>\n

First, let\u2019s deal with the \u2018hint\u2019; he was directly asked whether Garnacho could leave Manchester United and he said: \u201cThat, nobody knows.\u201d<\/p>\n

Second, what is this \u2018two-month-long (we added the second hyphen ourselves) task\u2019? This was never spelled out by Amorim two months ago and indeed has not been spelled out now.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAnything can happen. He is improving in every part of the game: the understanding, when to defend. I am trying to find the best position for him, today he played a bit open, not so inside. We need guys who can play one v one.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So Amorim literally said that Garnacho was \u201cimproving\u201d and the Mirror\u2019s takeaway is that Amorim has \u2018confirmed\u2019 Garnacho\u2019s \u2018worst fears\u2019?<\/p>\n

Have we accidentally entered a world where words no longer mean anything at all? It\u2019s not a Reach\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
