In the passionate "Man City Beat", the victory of Manchester United made the whole team overflowing with joy, however, the experience of Rashford and Alejandro Canazo is saddening. In a surprising turn of events, Rashford and Alejandro Canazo, who appeared to be fit and healthy, were unexpectedly left out of the squad, even though they were expected to be included in the 20-man roster. They were rumored to be the culprits behind the leakage of United's squad, but Ruben Emolian has vehemently denied any disciplinary problems.
Fans were surprised by the inclusion of Canazo and "Foo", but Amorim explained after the game: "This decision has nothing to do with discipline. Next week, we will start a new chapter. You have to fight for your position. This game showed that with unity, United can beat any opponent." Indeed, Emolian hinted at this before the game, "My personal judgment is pure and I will be looking at all the details, including the players' diets, the match day kit ...... all of which I will have a multitude of choices to choose from when I make my own judgment."
In English Premier League matches, lineup choices are often revealed 75 minutes before kickoff. However, in this match, Manchester United's roster selection was revealed on the Internet even as early as the night before, and the information was accurate, which made fans suspicious of Canazo and "Foo". Amorim admitted after the game that he found it difficult to control the issue of military leaks: "I know a story, but I don't know how to solve it. We have to address the issue of military situation leaks because there are a lot of people involved in the game. Players may have informed their managers or friends that they should remain in the game so that they have the right line-up options for the next game."
