Paul Parker Says Amorim Made the Right Choice Letting Rashford Leave Man U
Former Manchester United defender Paul Parker has weighed in on Marcus Rashford’s loan move to Aston Villa, suggesting that new manager Ruben Amorim won’t have any regrets about letting the forward leave Old Trafford.
Speaking to Metro, Parker argued that Amorim made the right call by offloading Rashford, citing his inconsistency and playing style as key reasons.
According to the former England international, Rashford was not the kind of forward Amorim needed, and keeping him in the squad could have disrupted the team’s balance.
“I don’t think Amorim will regret it at all. Rashford wouldn’t have given him what he wants,” Parker said. “He is not a natural center-forward. Even in the Ipswich game, yes, he scored, but he was invisible for most of the match.”
Parker also pointed out Rashford’s struggles with physicality, claiming that the forward dislikes having defenders behind him because he doesn’t enjoy the physical battle.
He further suggested that Rashford’s attitude in recent months might have been a distraction for the team, something Amorim didn’t need in his first season at the club.
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
