Manchester United were jubilant after an intense "Man City Cup" match, but Rashford and Alejandro Canazo were the "losers" in the spotlight. Despite being in good health, they were not included in the 20-man starting lineup, which was a strange sight. Rumor has it that they may have been responsible for the leak, but the club's top man, Ruben Emolian, has insisted that there was no disciplinary problem.
The inclusion of Canazo and "Foo" surprised the fans, and Amorim commented after the game: "This decision has nothing to do with discipline. Next week, everything will start all over again. You have to fight for your place. This game proved that as long as United are united, they can beat any opponent." Indeed, ahead of the game, Emolian had a poignant exposition, "My decision making is pure, I will be looking at all the details including the players' diets, the match day kit ...... all of which I will be deciding on after personal judgment that I have a number of players to choose from. "
In the Premier League, squad selection is usually announced 75 minutes before the start of the match. However, in this match, United's roster selection process was advanced to the night before, and the information leaked online was accurate, which caused fans to be concerned about Canazo and "Foo". Amorim expressed his helplessness after the match about the leaked list: "I know there is such a story, but I don't know how to solve it. We have to solve the problem of leaked lists because things like this happen on the pitch. Players may tell their coaches or friends that they should continue to play, so the right roster choices will be made for the next game."
