Bruno Fernandes Told to Deliver Brutal Punishment to Alejandro Garnacho After Infamous Marcus Rashford Tribute
Bruno Fernandes Told to Deliver Brutal Punishment to Alejandro Garnacho After Infamous Marcus Rashford Tribute originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Manchester United winger, Alejandro Garnacho, was recently told by manager Ruben Amorim to find a new club. Some players would knuckle down, fight for their place, and prove their manager wrong. Others take a different tack, deciding to inflame the situation in spectacular fashion.

While on holiday in Ibiza, Garnacho posted a photo of himself on social media wearing Marcus Rashford's Aston Villa shirt. Rashford remains on Manchester United's books but was loaned to Villa for the latter part of last season.
Rashford showed his support for Garnacho, commenting "My brother" along with a heart emoji, the petulant behavior has naturally enraged United fans, who clearly feel he has crossed a line.
On TalkSPORT's breakfast show former Premier League striker Troy Deeney didn't hold back in his assessment of the situation and offered some blunt advice on how club captain Bruno Fernandes should handle it.
"If it was me at Man Utd, if I was Fernandes, I'd wait 'til he came back and firstly I'd smash him...This is Man Utd; Who do you think you are? You Dope", Deeney said.

It's highly likely that neither Rashford nor Garnacho will be at Old Trafford next season, but if they fail to force the transfers they crave by July then they - along with fellow rejects Antony and Sancho - will probably be forced to train alone while the rest of the squad jets off on their summer tour in America.

In 1975, Arthur Ashe Made His Point
Two nights before he played one of the most important tennis matches of his life, Arthur Ashe had dinner with three of his best friends. It was in London in 1975, and Ashe was scheduled to play Jimmy Connors, the defending champion and world No. 1, in the Wimbledon final on Saturday. Ashe chose the Playboy Club, where the foursome could sit undisturbed at a table in the back. That Thursday night, Ashe, Donald Dell, his attorney and manager, Charlie Pasarell and Freddie McNair, both players and friends of Ashe, exchanged pleasantries and then got down to business. They devised a game plan to disrupt Connors, shake up his rhythm and allow Ashe to control points rather than be controlled by an opponent nearly 10 years his junior. It was all antithetical to the big serving, groundstroke-pounding, sometimes reckless style Ashe was accustomed to playing. 'We told him, 'Arthur, this is what you need to do,'' Pasarell, now 81, who first met Ashe at the Orange Bowl junior championships when the two were teenagers, said by phone this month. 'First, he would serve out wide to Jimmy's two-handed backhand to pull him off the court. Then he would step in, hit a short ball with little pace to Jimmy's forehand. Giving dinks and junk to Jimmy would give him fits. All that worked especially well on grass where the ball would skid.' The next morning, Dell, who was staying at the same hotel as Ashe, grabbed an envelope from the front desk and wrote on the back the three key points they had discussed the night before, including Ashe's liberal use of the lob whenever Connors would crowd the net. He left the note in Ashe's hotel mailbox. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Hull FC ratings as Aidan Sezer moments fail to mask under-par team display
Hull FC were defeated 24-10 at Warrington Wolves on Saturday evening. Here are the ratings. Jordan Rapana - The Kiwi does some good things, and his involvements are plentiful, but there are still too many errors in his game playing at full-back. He'll know that, but it's also a team game, and Hull need to be better collectively. 4 Advertisement Harvey Barron - Scored a try for the third game in a row. A couple of tough errors when under pressure, but he also stood up defensively at times with one or two big plays. 4 READ MORE: John Cartwright reacts to Hull FC defeat as search goes on for key performance answer READ MORE: Hull FC suffer disappointing defeat at Warrington Wolves as side made to rue sloppy account Tom Briscoe - A big moment in the second half could have gone his way if not for a big play from Rodrick Tai to palm back a Hardaker pass. Ifs and buts now. Tried his best; it was just not Hull's day. 5 Davy Litten - Ran strong and was really solid, especially in the first half. Never backed down. Some pressure-relieving plays from Warrington kicks too. Certainly one of Hull's strongest performers. 6 Advertisement Lewis Martin - Dealt with all kicks and returned the ball strongly. Made one break. Went well as always, even if denied a second-half try with a foot in touch. 6 Cade Cust - Involved in both of Hull's first-half tries, unleashing his half-back partner Aidan Sezer. Always a threat with his running game, but the link at times in attack just wasn't fluent. With John Asiata and Will Pryce out, that's no surprise. Moved to hooker for the last quarter of the game. 5 Aidan Sezer - Had Hull's best moments. His assist to Barron may have been forward, but there was no doubting his own try, running strong to score. Unfortunately, that spell was as good as it got. 6 Herman Ese'ese - Ran strong as always and bumped off plenty of tackles. Couldn't turn the tide in the second half. 6 Advertisement Amir Bourouh - Tidy. Tried to keep Hull ticking. Came off on the hour mark. 5 Liam Knight - Used as Hull's middle ball link. Played big minutes and tried to lead the charge. 6 Zak Hardaker - Competitive as always, he tried his best to get at Wire. Massive defensive effort. 6 Ed Chamberlain - Ran well off Sezer when he got the opportunity. Put himself about as always. 5 Yusuf Aydin - Played the whole first half in what was a big effort from the energetic middle. 5 Jack Ashworth - Tried to add a bit of punch off the bench. 5 Brad Fash - Hull were under the cosh during the large majority of Fash's time on the field, but he never backed down defensively. 5 Jack Charles - Came on after the game had already slipped away. 5 Sam Eseh - Put himself about but to no avail. 5

Hull FC suffer disappointing defeat at Warrington Wolves as side made to rue sloppy account
Warrington Wolves kept their Super League season alive with a 24-10 victory over Hull FC on Saturday evening, and in doing so, silenced any lingering hangover talk following their Challenge Cup final defeat to Hull KR at the start of the month. Advertisement Led by George Williams, who, similarly, put to rest any doubt of his commitment to the Wire's cause following a high-profile transfer link to NRL outfit the Dolphins, the home side was too strong, pulling away at the start of each half to record a win that keeps their play-off hopes very much alive with 11 rounds of the season still to go. As it stands, the Wire are just two points behind seventh-place Wakefield and three behind sixth-place Hull, with Sam Burgess' side showing plenty of craft and courage to earn the two points and perhaps reignite their campaign. READ MORE: John Cartwright reacts to Hull FC defeat as search goes on for key performance answer READ MORE: Highlights as Warrington Wolves keep season alive with victory over Hull FC Advertisement For Hull, it was a disappointing defeat. They weren't at the races to start, and despite a mini resurgence before half-time, they didn't produce for long enough periods to trouble the scoreboard and threaten the result. Aidan Sezer was at the heart of all they did well, but it wasn't enough, with game star Williams in turn producing the goods alongside half-back partner Marc Sneyd to ensure a big win in the context of Wire's season. Hull coach John Cartwright named an unchanged side for the first time this season—and incredibly, the first time since the play-off game at Wire back in November 2020. Meanwhile, Warrington full-back Matt Dufty made an early return from a fractured cheekbone, with centre Toby King dropped. And it was the Wire who started the stronger of the two sides. They got their first try through Josh Thewlis, with Jordan Rapana caught in the defensive line, and the winger, once he broke through, having a clear run to the try line as he raced 80 or so metres following some soft Hull defence. In response, Hull actually shaped up well. They tried to get their halves playing wider with Liam Knight used as the middle link, and at times, it worked to effect. However, it was the home side who came up trumps again, with a slick right-to-left move putting the other Thewlis brother, Jake, over in the corner. The young gun went over untouched, with Marc Sneyd's boot making it 12-0 to the Primrose and Blue outfit. Advertisement Hull needed some inspiration, and as has so often been the case this season, it came through their captain and leading half-back Sezer. The skipper first ran strong, taking a Cade Cust pass to attack the line at pace and burst through before showing the necessary composure to find Harvey Barron to finish in the corner—although whether the pass was legal was certainly dubious, to say the least, with the home crowd screaming 'forward.' But little did Hull care. They were back in it, with Sezer again proving instrumental. The half attacked once more, coming onto Cust's pass again and bursting through the line to score. That put Hull within two points at the break, with a contest that looked like it was getting away from them after an inconspicuous start firmly in the balance. But that Hull fightback was soon laid to rest in the second half—albeit it was the away side who broke and had the chance to score and take the lead. But Wire did just enough to get to a Hardaker pass after a Sezer half break and prevent FC's right edge from running away—with Tom Briscoe failing to take in the pass. That defensive play was rewarded, with Wire then regaining control with two quick-fire tries. First, Sam Powell scooted over from close range, with the veteran hooker smelling an opportunity to strike, before Lachlan Fitzgibbon added a fourth, getting on the end of a crisp move that saw the Black and Whites carved open again. Advertisement Sneyd again made no mistake from the tee, with the Wire 14 points to the good and in the ascendancy once again. They were camped on Hull's line for what seemed an eternity, but the away side miraculously survived. They kept going, with Lewis Martin—his foot in touch before grounding the ball—seeing a try overturned by the video referee. The effort from Cartwright's side wasn't in question, but ultimately, it was all in vain as Wire ran out deserved winners, with two massive games now coming up at the MKM Stadium—first St Helens and then Wakefield. For this Hull side, resurgent but still with a long way to go, next month is certainly make or break. Teams Warrington Starting XIII: 1. Matt Dufty; 2. Josh Thewlis, 20. Connor Wrench, 4.
