Ruben Amorim takes thinly-veiled dig at Marcus Rashford as Man United boss hails Alejandro Garnacho for making key change after both stars were DROPPED due to poor attitude

Ruben Amorim has praised Alejandro Garnacho for ‘changing in everything’ after he was axed for the Manchester derby in December.

Garnacho and Marcus Rashford were dropped for United’s win at the Etihad after Amorim said he was unhappy with their attitude in training.

But while Rashford remains out in the cold 12 games later and Amorim said this week that he still needs to change to revive his United career, Garnacho has fought his way back into the coach’s good books.

The 20-year-old Argentina winger was one of United’s best players when he came on as a half-time substitute in the 2-0 Europa League win over Steaua Bucharest in Romania on Thursday night.
