I feel for him because he obviously regrets his decision to go to the Euros rather than get the operation at end of the season

He was a couple of penalties away from winning the Euros. If he didn’t go and England had won, he’d have been devastated. I don’t think he really needs to justify that. He could have easily got it fixed last winter and been fit for the Euros, but he stuck it out to the detriment of himself.

I've never understood the stick Marcus gets tbf. His output is amongst the best in the World for his position and you could argue he hasn't even been at 100% for a while. It's like he's only ever given shit because he's not Neymar. Not every player has to have that sort of style to be effective.
Yeah not being fully fit since before that Wolves game in the FA Cup when he got the back injury two seasons back

He gets stick because the whole ‘fit enough to play not fit enough to track back’ stuff got annoying as did the insinuation that pointing that out made someone a Tory who wanted kids to starve

:lol: Enough with the fecking statements...just have the surgery and come back when you're good.

Saw this was the top post on the Reddit thread... a screenshot (think it's from /sp/) posted a couple of hours before yet another super authentic and super real 'open letter':

The only thing that annoys me about his statements is his use of "would of" or "had of". Saw it in the one about the Euro final too. FFS man sort it out!

Come back stronger Marcus!

Honestly he might be the nicest most well-inentioned bloke on the planet and even his own fans manage to have a pop at him.

Says a lot about the state of society these days, but nothing about Rashford.

Weird isn't it. Apparently whatever Rashford does is PR stunt.

I'm sure few of these posters think his operation is also fake.
I've no idea how any person never mind a United fan could hate on Marcus. Strange behaviour.

But apparently his posts are passed through 20 PR consultants. :rolleyes:

4chan being referenced in 2021 is wild. Forgot it was a thing.
I agree, throwback much! I remember a college friend who was obsessed with it, in like 2009, the glimpses I seen, it was a complete cesspool! How is a site like that still able to function in a 2021 society of cancel culture?

I've never used 4chan - mostly because I'm a 30 year old boomer and don't understand the concept...but it's the top post on the Reddit thread. Somebody asked where it was from, they said /sp/...I didn't know it was part of 4chan, I thought they were just anime and racism.

Still accurate though. You don't need a long winded, dramatic social media statement for every piece of minutiae. It's extremely every brand on Twitter 2021.

Does the fact that a user has chosen to post something on 4chan automatically invalidate any point that someone is making?

You’d probably react in the same dramatic manner if someone on 4chan had posted that the sun is likely to rise tomorrow. You should probably reflect on the fact that this kind of reaction says more about you than it does about 4chan.

That's the thing about 4chan, they are never completely serious over there.

Its Utd who pay his wages not England.He has let the club down big time.
The club should have bought a fecking striker two years ago instead of playing him even when he was carrying injuries for the past two seasons. You know the attitude of the player is very good if he wants to contribute and play through the pain barrier but ideally somebody should have taken the decision out of his hands.

Who really cares, We all knew he should have had surgery and gotten it done as soon as possible and I can see why people think it was selfish of him not to but if you’re in the same position and your country is one of the favourites to win it what you going to do?

He is getting it done now and that’s all that matters, hopefully he comes back, fit and healthy and an improved player.

Greenwood was also in the same boat but he withdrew from the euros squad by himself to get ready for the start of the season.Rashford should have followed the same path like Greenwood did.

This has to be the weirdest page of posts on the Caf.

Yes, that’s exactly it mate. It’s not the nonsensical post from a nonsensical website, it’s me at fault. I’ve actually spent the last hour having a long hard look at myself in the mirror.

Or it could be that Rashford is well read also. But his tweets are perfect you have to give him that.

Is this from r/soccer subreddit?

No it isn’t. It’s a stupid post that shouldn’t have been given an attention.

'Had I Known?' Wtf is he on about? He came out in early 2021 when his performances took a dump for the club that he was playing injured. He knew he was injured and probably needed an operation. Now he's going all preachy about this bs? Could have done what Mason has, withdrew due to Injury issues, had an operation and be basically ready in early September.

Agency which represents him was claiming on twitter that he has played with injury for a season so I wonder who is not being honest here. Anyway it doesn't matter now, hopefully he will be back in October. We have good enough squad to manage till October.

With comment like these i think you must be a little kid still playing in school with toys.
Based on your comment above i think you must love hating on Rashford for no reason, and honestly football would be better without you. Having a go at him for wanting to play in the Euros! Imagine judging him for that! You absolute baby
