Neville slams Rashford, Casemiro

Manchester United officially welcomed new manager Ruben Amorim to Old Trafford on November 11.

The Portuguese boss met with his new players, but Rashford and Casemiro were noticeably absent.

Rashford attened an NBA game between the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets at Madison Square Garden.

Neville, a former Red Devil, criticized the duo’s professionalism, citing the timing and consequences of their vacations.

“The professionalism, looking after your body and making sure you’re best prepared for the next training session is critical to every decision you make during the season,” Neville said on Stick to Football podcast.

“He [Marcus Rashford] has got a mental break, he’s got to get away and has got to rest with friends – then you talk about the choice of venue, how far do you fly, what’s the time difference, is that going to give a jet lag issue, is that going to give a stiffness issue from being on a flight for 12 hours?”

“This is on Casemiro more than Rashford but if I’m [over] 30 years old and I’m looking after my body – and he’s won five Champions Leagues and is an unbelievable player, but if he was away with Brazil for 10 days, we would say he would struggle this weekend because he’s been away.”

Neither Rashford nor Casemiro was confirmed to be in Portland during the November international break.

Nonetheless, Neville said that both players should have joined the United squad instead of taking the trip.

“They [Casemiro and Marcus Rashford] have chosen that international break. If you are talking about the minor details in being as professional as you can be and as prepared you can be for a training session on a Monday night, that isn’t the best choice of venue.”

“I’m not that wound up about [Marcus] Rashford and Casemiro going over to the United States but what I’m asking is, if you’ve got a four-day break, Portland is a 12-hour flight and an eight-hour time difference, your jet lag is bad, and you feel a bit [rough].”

“They went to Portland and I’m asking the question based on professionalism – you’re playing badly, the team are losing, you’re 13th in the league, and there is a new manager coming in – would you choose that trip as a break to recharge your batteries? That’s not a recharging trip. It’s not right that.”

United currently sit 13th in the Premier League standings, with just 15 points through 11 matches.

Amorim will make his debut as the new boss against Ipswich Town on Sunday, November 24.
