So, just thought I'd check-in to see how this thread is going.
World-class talent Marcus Rashford can't get on the pitch for England ahead of Sterling, Grealish, Foden, Sancho or Saka. As usual, we're going with "it's because he's carrying an injury".
I would have thought the medical teams at United and England would know more about the severity of his injury than random people on the Internet but hey, what do I know?
Clearly England decided to waste a squad position on an injured player because he's a good laugh around the swimming pool and Utd are OK with that because we only pay him £300K a week so what's the harm if he makes this injury worse and misses the start of the season?
Also, there's no precedent for other Utd players who would have made this squad missing it so they can recover from injuries, as long as you ignore Greenwood and Henderson.
Could it be, possibly, maybe, potentially, at all even remotely possible that he just isn't as good as Sterling, Saka, Grealish, Sancho or Foden?
Cue bombardment of stats from people saying "Rashford's stats blah blah blah something"
Don't get too upset about it, its only my opinion. My prediction is he will start fewer games next season as we see clear evidence that Greenwood, Sancho and Pogba are better options in the wide-forward positions. Can still raise his game. Can still be a good squad player. Really needs to start knuckling down now. The time for excuses is over in my book.
No way in this galaxy is Pogba better than Rashford on the Left Wing. I am hoping Pogba signs a new contract (not for stupid money). But he is not a left winger.
