Ruben Amorim confirms plans to improve Man Utd discipline by blocking lengthy holidays after Marcus Rashford & Casemiro's controversial trips to USA

Premier League

Arsenal

Manchester United

<p>During the international break, Rashford and Casemiro opted to take a break from the so far hectic season, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/gary-neville-criticising-marcus-rashford-casemiro-ruben-amorim-man-utd/blt43ab0fe0c6b832f5" target="_blank">visiting the USA</a> after not being called up for their countries. Though Amorim refused to criticise the pair, he is set to crack down on unnecessary breaks while the season is in progress.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Amorim claimed he was not given authority to stop Rashford and Casemiro racking up the air miles, but will look to review this policy after being fully onboarded as the club's new head coach.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>At a press conference, Amorim said of these holidays, "Would I set a different structure? Yes, for sure. But we cannot put this on the players.</p><p>"They told them they have five days off so they can fly anywhere. Because nobody in the club says you cannot fly. So we cannot, this time, put that on Rash or Case. Us as a club have to set the standards and have to manage that.</p><p>"It’s my decision if they can have five days, or three days, or three days to rest and you cannot fly. This is something that us as a club have to decide. So this must be started in the club, with us and me being responsible in that area."</p>

WHAT AMORIM SAID

<p>While Amorim is busy making changes off the field, Sunday brings his first opportunity to show he can impact the club on it. United travel to Ipswich for their inaugural game under the management of the Portuguese coach.</p>
