Roy Keane says that Marcus Rashford must “be ashamed” by his behavior by his constant exclusion from the Manchester United team, which does not show the signs of being resolved.
Rashford has not played for more than six weeks, and Chief coach Ruben Amorim said on Sunday that he would rather play his 63-year-old goalkeeper coach than a player with Rashford’s attitude.
Speaking on the eve of tonight’s Europa League match with Steaua Bucharest, the Portuguese reiterated their claim that the English international “must change” if he wants to return his journey to his plans.

And former Captain United Keane is confused why Rashford, who claims he wants a “new start” away from Old Trafford, is no longer showing in training.
Said The Stick To Football Podcast: “I still can’t understand at any level – whatever happens to the players who leave, months who have stayed on contracts – a player who doesn’t train properly.
“I don’t understand; You could also leave me from this conversation.
“Especially if you think you want to move, the more than a reason to train properly, so when you go to a new club, you are fast and when you leave the club, at least you showed a decent attitude. It is sure to be ashamed.”
Deliberate Business Game – Neville
Rashford has just over four days to secure a move in January window, and Gary Neville believes that Amorim’s public criticism is a part of the plot to encourage potential courtiers.
Neville said, “I know Ruben amorim is honest. I believe he wants money for Marcus Rashford, he said that [about him training] that he probably illuminated him and pulled him out of the club.
“They probably ask Marcus to take a salary to leave, they do not want to subsidize salaries because there is no way of paying him a new club to pay these salaries.
“So I doubt that he is a brutal blow to him to say that there is no future here, that we need it. I doubt it is a business game as well as a play of sparks.”
The subject dominates in a press conference before the match
Rashford was not involved in a team for a match in Romania tonight, but Amorim’s press conference in Bucharest was again dominated by a player thousands of miles away.
Former CP sports chief admitted that United would be better with Fit and release of Rashford.
“We are a better team with him, that’s clear, but by the right moment I won’t change my mind,” he said.
“It has to change. If Rashford changes, we are more than happy to have Rashford. We need it. But we have to set standards.
“We’re waiting for Marcus if he wants. It’s not personal. I have nothing against Marcus, but I have to bring the same rules for everyone, it’s so simple for me.
“We need goals, we need a threat in the last third.”
