Don't know what this is supposed to mean
Rashford put a IG post out during the summer with him and Jesse Lingard, saying how they made it to the pros. Citing a stat that only 0.0012% of football players become professionals.

Now Rashford is struggling so people are mad at him for putting a fact out there, that in fact both him and Jesse Lingard are professional football players. Playing for their national team no less. How dare they say it publicly!

It was Lingard that posted it, wasnt he?

Still don't see what relevance it has to my original post

Not to my actual original posted. The person who replied to it seems to have just pointlessly posted it as a response
Ah well then, I didnt see that post, I just replied to the post in question.

You are quoting one of the worst United fans I have ever had the displeasure to see. This guy is the epitome of toxicity, xenophobia and a coward who loves throwing serious abuse hidden behind his computer.
Fair enough. Saw it on Reddit and found it interesting. Don't know the Twitter account.

Doesn't even look up for it anymore. Bad signs, unfortunately it seems we can't rely on him to produce.

Isolated up front until Greenwood came on, he would have scored if the defender hadn't got a foot to it

Missed the game. Was he awful again? Do I even need to ask?
You don't.

Key moment for me was that Dalot cross that resulted in our only chance of the match. Mata makes a near post run, opens up the middle of the box. Pereira is running to the far post where the ball was eventually cleared. Rashford isn't even inside the box.

He's shockingly bad and not even making the CB's work for it like Lukaku did during his poor patches.

When he first burst onto the scene, it was his movement and ability to lose the cb inside the box that made me think we found an absolute gem.

If you were to watch tape of him now vs that first year to 18 months under lvg you wouldnt even know your watching the same player

He's changed his game and gotten worse

Finally being called out by the media and fans who gave him such a big ego in the first place. It's a real shame it's after we gave him 200k a week because we are stuck with this loser for the long term now.

From now on we should all refer to him as 200k to highlight the ridiculousness of it

It irked me at the time, and I was shot down for saying this, but those interviews he gave at the start of the season saying how it was like the old United says it all, one result against Chelsea doesn't prove shit, losing one game and then making every other team regret it by winning the next 10-15 is what made us great - the mentality of these players stays alot.

He should have been told not to give those interviews, he doesn't know what the old United was like as he wasn't in that dressing room, and it's likely he'll never be a part of a dressing room like that.

It isn't just Rashford in fairness, Pogba and De Gea are the only players that deserve to wear United colours, the rest are not for for purpose and should be playing for Watford level teams (no offence to Watford).

It amazes me how Gary Neville still defends Rashford saying “something’s not quite right, he could do with a break”

He said the same thing at the end of last season when he was pants. He will never be a world class attacker, world class means you have the ability to do things different, Rashford knows one way “push and run”. If this guy was not English pundits would slate him but I guess ole will pat him on the back and tell him he had a good game and we go again.
Shocking.

Convinced he's got a knock and due to a complete lack of reinforcements we're making him play through it.

Also team tactics leave him completely isolated.

But he doesn't help his case by never being in the right position and not having a striker's nose for sniffing out chances.

He's just a terrible player all around. Was put in a place he doesn't deserve. Should be a squad player minimum. Not entering the season depending on him as our main striker. Not helped by how selfish and arrogant he's thinking himself Ronaldo reincarnation on the pitch.

It's our and the media problem putting him in such place to start with though. He started as a down to Earth lad back during LVG days and his ego became bigger and bigger as he went on thanks to overrating from fans and media.

Needs dropping for a few weeks. Needs to rediscover his attitude that he started out with.

This is typical of English ex players in the media. They never call out English players and have no problem slating foreigners.

Greenwood is 17 and should be intergrated into a healthy environment. Not have a club the size of Utd relying on a 17 year because Ole sanctioned the sale of Lukaku and didnt replace him
Yeah. I really take umbrage with people writing off Greenwood this early and in this atmosphere. All the excuses that get rolled out for Rashford are legitimately excusable ones for Greenwood.

Pointless to play him as a target man against a deep team. But we don't have a striker to pair him up with so..

Greenwood is 18 since a few days. Just play Greenwood... when Martial is out Greenwood is the best option as CF.

Can't believe I'm actually gonna defend Rashford. But he really doesn't deserve to be written off. This one's on the club for piss poor management of a decent youth prospect.

I still have faith that a humble Rashford, in the right setup can have a very good career at this level.
