Paul Parker’s comments reflect a belief that Marcus Rashford’s departure from Manchester United may have been a good move for both the player and manager Ruben Amorim. While Rashford has been a key figure for United in the past, Parker points out that Rashford hasn’t been able to fit into Amorim’s tactical setup, particularly in a central forward role, and that his attitude might have been a disruptive factor in the locker room.
Parker’s comments about Rashford’s preference for not being in a physical, back-to-goal role—along with his apparent reluctance to battle for possession or take hits—suggest that Rashford might not have been able to adapt to the demands of Amorim’s style. If Rashford is struggling to perform and doesn’t fit in the system, his exit might help both the manager and the team maintain balance and focus for the rest of the season.
Do you think Rashford will find more success at Aston Villa, or do you feel he could have turned things around at Manchester United under Amorim?
