Ralf Rangnick might have found training a little easier to organise at Carrington now the size of the Manchester United squad has been suitably trimmed.
Amad, Anthony Martial and Donny van de Beek have all left on loan this month and having been carrying a squad of nearly 30 senior players, United are now down to around 25 and in line with most of their rivals.
Elite managers would rather work with a smaller squad than a large one, making it easier to get ideas across and keep everyone engaged, but at United this season there's been too many players at training who know that whatever happens there chances of involvement at the weekend were slim to non-existent. That doesn't create a good environment.
