England's most senior referee says fans, the media, players and former referees need to "look at themselves" and stop the ritualistic abuse of match officials which is too often "unacceptable", warning it could cause the trickle of talent for the future to dry up.
Former Chelsea manager Ruud Gullit (Picture: Getty) Ruud Gullit believes that Marcus Rashford’s return to Manchester United could prove to be the ‘best Premier League signing of the summer’. Rashford’s time in Manchester appeared to be up when he joined Barcelona on loan last summer, a deal that was expected to be made permanent in a £26million deal. The 28-year-old had made no bones about his desire to extend his stay at the club, but the Catalan giants instead decided to pursue a deal for Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon. After a break following the World Cup, Rashford has now joined up with United’s pre-season training, watching from the sidelines as the Red Devils drew 1-1 against Leeds United on Wednesday.

And while an exit from Old Trafford appeared far more likely earlier in the summer, a lack of serious suitors prepared to meet United’s £40m asking price means the Englishman now looks set to return to his boyhood club. But former Chelsea manager Gullit expects Rashford to come back to the Premier League with a point to prove, and believes keeping the winger could prove United’s best piece of business this summer. ‘Marcus Rashford could end up being the best signing,’ he told Sport Witness. Marcus Rashford has joined pre-season training with Manchester United (Picture: Getty) ‘He learned a lot at Barcelona and played much better, with far more freedom, than he ever did at Manchester United. ‘Was that his fault, or was it down to the environment at the club? It’s very easy to point fingers at the player. But if he performs well elsewhere, it suggests something was wrong in his previous environment. ‘So that could prove to be a fantastic move, for Manchester United if he stays, and performs like he did at Barcelona.’ Rashford’s return to United has also been endorsed by former Red Devils defender Rio Ferdinand, who recently said: ‘Rashford is back at Manchester United at the training ground and guys, he’s like a purring Ferrari man. Michael Carrick has hinted that Rashford is in his plans for the new season (Picture: Getty) ‘He looks fit, he looks ready. And you know what, there’s a smile on his face and there’s a little spring in his step. ‘We don’t know which way this is going to go and how it’s going to pan out by the end of this transfer window. But you know what, I hope he stays and he will be like a new signing at the football club. ‘And could this be the motivated Marcus Rashford to come out and prove all the doubters and all the people wrong? And all the naysayers.I hope it is. Let’s watch this space.’ Speaking after United’s draw with Leeds, Michael Carrick hinted that Rashford was in his plans ahead of the new season. ‘He’s our player, you know, and he’s come back great. He’s just like any other player,’ Carrick told ITV1. ‘I’ve known Marcus a long time and, you know, he gives us something a little bit different. And he’s been in great spirits since he’s been back. ‘He’s been back two or three days training and it’s just pretty normal, to be honest. And we’re looking forward to the start of the season.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page. Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Sign up now! Sign up now! Sign up now? Sign up now!Aston Villa supporters could have been forgiven for approaching the new season with feelings of great anxiety, nagging angst and face-twitching trepidation. Youri Tielemans has gone: such an elegant player with an eye [and nose? – Football Daily Ed] for the spectacular. Morgan Rogers has also departed: so energetic and skilful, always carrying that goal threat. And goodbye to Lucas Digne. But Villa fans who have been keeping their eye trained behind the curtain may not have been quite so concerned. Earlier this month, their 17-year-old striker Brian Madjo – 6ft4in, body of iron ore – was cleared by the court of arbitration for sport to play competitive fixtures for the club. Born in London but already capped for Luxembourg, Villa and Fifa were in diagreed over whether Madjo, signed from Metz in January for £10m, qualified as a home purchase or an international transfer. If it was the latter, as a minor, he wouldn’t have been eligible until turning 18 next January. While waiting for the verdict, Madjo banged in four goals in pre-season friendlies, against Walsall, Real Sociedad and Indonesia All Stars, and upon finally being cleared for the big boys, could have scored as many again in 45 minutes against the best team in the world, Paris Saint-Germain.This is an extract from our daily football email … Football Daily.

Arsenal midfielder Mikel Merino (Picture: Getty) Mikel Merino says Arsenal ‘probably’ have the ‘best midfield in football’ after Bruno Guimaraes’ £75m move from Newcastle United. The Premier League champions signed Brazil international Guimaraes on a four-year deal after a protracted saga with Newcastle. Guimaraes bolsters an Arsenal midfield that already includes captain Martin Odegaard, England stars Declan Rice and Eberechi Eze, former Real Madrid target Martin Zubimendi, academy graduate Myles Lewis-Skelly and World Cup winner Merino. Arsenal will try to retain their Premier League crown this season while mounting another challenge for the Champions League after losing to PSG in the final back in May.

Merino, who has returned to Arsenal after helping Spain win the World Cup, believes the Gunners are in good shape to do just that after the ‘amazing’ signing of Guimaraes. Guimaraes made his first appearance for Arsenal in Wednesday’s pre-season draw with Cesc Fabregas’ Como. ‘Amazing signing,’ Merino said when asked about the Newcastle star swapping St James’ Park for the Emirates Stadium. Mikel Arteta and new Arsenal signing Bruno Guimaraes (Picture: Getty) ‘He has proved throughout these years how good he is at Newcastle. And he showed it today again. A lot of composure, technical ability, a lot of defensive effort as well. ‘So it’s a very good signing. A top player, but we have many of those in this team. So everyone that comes to help the team is welcome.’ Asked about the strength of Arsenal’s midfield following Guimaraes’ arrival, Merino added: ‘Honestly, it’s unreal. Probably the best midfield in football. Arsenal are hoping to retain the Premier League (Picture: Getty) ‘The amount of quality that we have there, with every player that can come on the pitch and make a good shift. It’s great. ‘That’s good for the team. That’s good for the squad. It raises everyone’s level because if you have a bad day, the one that is close to you is going to do a great job. ‘I think we have an amazing squad. The hunger is still there.
