The excitement surrounding a new manager is not as palpable among Manchester United fans nowadays, especially after the tumultuous years following Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure.
Yet, one player’s recent online post has ignited a flicker of hope as supporters anticipate the fresh leadership aiming to build a new era at Old Trafford.
Ruben Amorim has recently taken on the managerial role at United after a successful stint with Sporting CP.
With the international break in November now over, Amorim has begun his regular activities at the training facility, and Marcus Rashford was quick to share his thoughts on the initial experience.
“Great session today,” Rashford commented on social media.
This positive sentiment surfaced shortly after former United striker Teddy Sheringham emphasized the importance of Rashford in helping Amorim connect with the current squad promptly.
“I observe the United players; they may not realize it, but they require guidance. Marcus Rashford needs to resonate with the manager, appreciate his approach, and step up as a leader,” Sheringham remarked to Best Offshore Sportsbooks, as cited by The Mirror.
“Younger teammates will look to Rashford as an example, thinking, ‘If he leads, I’m following him too. Let’s unite and perform together.’ [Amorim] must win over the key players swiftly.”
“Rashford is pivotal; he’s the player people notice, as he is expected to score and create opportunities. If he is not performing, it raises concerns.”
“Therefore, it’s crucial to gain his support and have him confidently leading the team.”
“He’s not a rookie anymore. He’s grown into a seasoned player. The shift from young talent to a reliable figure happens quickly.”
“Before long, you are seen as experienced and are looked upon to guide others.”
“Having represented England multiple times, he ought to take charge but hasn’t been doing so at Manchester United. This dynamic needs alteration.”
“He must align the prominent players with him swiftly.”
