Time is passing very quickly with MU and coach Ruben Amorim, because only 4 weeks left to the Reds will start the trip before the season.
MU's friendly schedule will start in about three and a half weeks with the match against Leeds. This is the third time in 6 years, the Red Devils have confronted the enemies in the Yorkshire region in neutral yard abroad. It was only 3 and a half weeks ago, their post -season trip has just ended.
Pre -season medical tests will be conducted at Carrington in two weeks. The media will probably be on duty at both gates of the training center on July 7 to wait for “hunting” pictures of the faces that are considered “sidelines”.
With the childish and selfishness of Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford, it would not be surprising if either of them (or both) was absent without reason. Jadon Sancho has no number of shirts in the squad, and almost “cleaned up” two years ago.
Rashford, Garnacho and Sancho are damaging internal harmony. Sancho even let go of MU with only one word when commenting on Rashford's Instagram post in February: “Freedom”. Now Sancho is a free person … in theory, when Chelsea even paid the money so he did not have to fulfill the obligation to buy this player.
Instead, Chelsea wanted to recruit Jamie Gittens – a younger winger who used to leave Man City Academy to go to Dortmund, like Sancho before. That is the level of Chelsea rating Sancho now – and also shows how much his value has fallen after 4 years at Old Trafford. Even so, Sancho still insisted on reducing wages.
Coach Amorim has never met Sancho, and he doesn't need to do so. The first summer at MU in 2021, Sancho once “ruffled” the pre -season training session that he should have present. With the current position, the 25 -year -old star can clearly “collapse” comfortably.
Amorim also does not need to see the face of “virtual brothers” Rashford – Garnacho, who have ruined MU's image recently. Rashford and Garnacho are burning the bridge to connect themselves with the club – the bridge that MU used to build money when signing a 5 -year contract with Rashford 2 years ago.
Now Rashford is “glancing at love” with Barca. This is a 325,000 -pound salary player, but in the last two seasons, only 13 goals in the Premier League and play faint even when wearing Aston Villa.
This situation reminds people of the dialogue between Danny Rose and President Daniel Levy in the documentary “Tottenham Hotspur: All Or Nothing”. Rose was then ready to leave on the form of loan and was interested by Newcastle and Bournemouth. But he wanted something “more flashy”.
“Have you asked Milan?”, Rose asked. Levy almost laughed: “Milan has no intention of you.” Barca may also “have no intention” with a gentle village player like Rashford.
The prospect of MU gets rashed by Rashford, Sancho and Garnacho before the flight on July 22 is … dreaming. But the fact is: none of them should be on the plane.
Sancho has no transfer value to protect. Rashford was broken down 6 months ago. Garnacho – who will turn 21 next week – is a different case, but the relationship between him and Amorim has cracked, so that the Portuguese coach had to laugh when asked whether Garnacho could stay in MU next season.
Amorim is not an easy coach model with this kind of compromise. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is different – he was “given” Romelu Lukaku in 2019 during a trip through Australia, Singapore and China.
Solskjaer then continuously declared Lukaku injury. The Belgian striker took advantage of the last trip with MU to “entertain”, even recording Luke Shaw video lagging behind the physical coach when running around Waca yard in Perth.
After returning to Manchester, MU had two more friendly matches in Norway and Cardiff but Lukaku did not appear. Then he … left. Finally, Lukaku joined Inter Milan – MU's opponent in Singapore – at the end of the Premier League transfer, when it ended before the new season began.
Lukaku was so extravagant that he posted the physical running data of the MU players on Twitter. Although he once declared he would not sell under £ 75 million paid to Lukaku, MU finally had to give in and cut holes.
Currently, Matheus CuHa will definitely be on the flight to Chicago. MU also hopes to be able to bring Bryan Mbeumo with him. The main striker is still waiting for someone to appear – a problem when this summer does not have big international tournaments.
Joshua Zirkzee scored with many people, but Amorim did not consider him a real striker. Some high -ranking officials in MU appeared to be lightly overlooking Rasmus Hojlund – who was in Inter Milan's sights. Chido Obi is ready to participate in the first team, but still too young.
In an interview with Matthijs de Ligt last month, the Dutch center -back expressed his agreement with the method of Amorim: “I think what I am experiencing right now is what I want to see – and that's what the coach is doing very well. I don't go into detail, but I feel that he really focuses on each aspect. period “.
We have heard the phrase “cultural reconstruction” full of ambitious summer 2019. In 2022, David de Gea once said: “The team's culture needs to change”.
Now it is time to change again.
