Marcus Rashford appeared to be heading for the exit at Old Trafford before Christmas - as the dust continues to settle on that bombshell interview - but recently-appointed Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim is still leaving the door ajar. After 180 more minutes on the pitch, we will know for certain whether it's open or closed.

Manchester United great Jaap Stam has offered to join Ruben Amorim ’s coaching staff to help fix the club’s leaky defence. The Red Devils’ defensive struggles have continued since Amorim took over the reins from Erik ten Hag, with the club managing just one clean sheet in the Portuguese’s opening nine matches at the helm.

Amorim does not rotate to plan for the long term, though. He has stated previously it is simply to reduce the likelihood of injuries so he does not have bigger issues in the short and medium term. The amount of rotation also reflects on his demands with the increase in intensity another new aspect for the players.
