I'd take anything over £20m. I think he's washed up and will play out this contract in the same form he's currently in, before going on to do absolutely nothing elsewhere. Getting him off our books would be great business if there's any way we can do this.
David Ornstein: Man Utd want to keep Marcus Rashford | Consideration of sale if Rashford wants to take on a new challenge or a substantial bid arrives

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Great news. For our and his own sake he should go.
Hey Michael, huge fan. Any chance you can sign my England 98 shirt?
Who the heck is going to bid for Rashford? Even if they do, let's say 50m, would it be wise for us to sell him at that price and gamble on a replacement who could go either way?
At some point, ties need to be cut even if the future is uncertain. With Rashford, it's also very uncertain
SAF was ruthless with selling players don’t see why now we should be considering.
This.
Quite clever really, brief the press that they're willing to let most of the first team go with Rashford first out of the door. Sell it as a "new era" instead of what it is, which is we are skint, need to balance the books and likely won't be making any major signings to replace them any time soon. Now is the time to do it if they're actually serious.
I won't be surprised if it happens. Keep those that have put in shifts this year, promote a bunch of the youth while going hard in the loan market. Frankly, I'm all for it.

Rashford is at least decent backup. Till we get players in who have established themselves, it'll be a gamble to sell Rashford cheap. There's no guarantee the players we replace him with will fare any better than Antony or Martial. If we get a good figure for him (50m+), we should chop the bidder's hands off.
Like Mr. Blonde in Reservoir Dogs, 'Either he's alive or he's dead, or the cops got him, or they don't.'
I wonder if Rashford is going to come out with another social media novel about this news in the next few days.
It makes sense.
He's 26, now would be the time for a big move if he was going to make one. It could be best for all involved if he has a new challenge and we secure funds. I do think there's a decent chance that big sides will like his attributes and marketability even if it doesn't look so promising based on last season.
But there's also little point in selling him for an absolute pittance either just to see him gone so the clubs position makes sense.

People agreed at the time, they just thought and posted at the time that he was stating the obvious and it didn't excuse his shite management....
Rangnick still having a **** following on here is another baffling thing about modern day fans
If he won’t push, we won’t shove. I can see why he stays — the likelihood of him getting an optimal move is low, and next season surely can’t be worse — for him or the club.Tweet

Maybe he needs to start running instead of jogging like a fat guy going for the ice cream truck.
He'll quite clearly stay because that huge offer just won't come. He's probably going to move on in a couple of years but it will be to a mid-table team after his contract is close to running out. He'll probably be playing for promoted sides by the time he's 30.
I think people would believe him if he broke into a sprint more often than bi-annually.
A lot of his status is what he done off the pitch. If he went to another country he would lose that, all they would care about is pitch performance
If he is sold, it won't be cheap that's for sure
Wouldn't be surprised if Chelsea saw this as some sort of opportunity. They're desperate enough to make a big offer.
If Salah's staying at the scousers then a £150 million fee with £750k a week wage should get the Saudi's the new poster boy they want...
I suspect there will be a lot more to this story before the summer is out.
It's a nothing story. United aren't selling their poster boy to another English club (the only ones that can afford his wages) to begin a new era, and Rashford isn't stupid to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. If there's something to read in it, it's a potential bras-De-fer about his status in the club. The new management saying "we like you here, but get your act together or else" and Rashford replying "i'm not going anywhere. See you in June 2028". I pity the next fool who'll come in to fix this dressing room.
We need Ronaldo to get on the phone to him pronto. Saudi is calling.
Do you really believe he's lazy or have you just been fooled by TUS and their ilk?

Let's keep all the non performing players and managers for the longest time possible. Cause we love it like that.
It's starting to feel like a case of 'meet the new boss, same as the old boss'. I genuinely hope SJR isn't blinded by his love of everything local and British and looks at this situation properly.Yep.
No they didn't. There where many posters claiming he was talking rubbish, using Oles second place as their argument.
Yes.... that will make all the difference wont it?
How about he just starts scoring again? I reckon that'll suffice...
I was one of those stating it.... the thread is there for anyone to check
Who would pay him the wages that we're paying him anyway? If we're not selling him to an English club, who could afford him?
Of course, he wants to stay. He's in his comfort zone.
I don't think you can call somewhere he gets booed by his own fans a comfort zone.
He will only elect to leave if we stop playing him and he gets offered more money elsewhere.
Even if Real or PSG came and matched his wages, he wouldnt go. He knows he has it easy here and gets a free ride from the club and from the press and largely from the fans too.

Hoping PSG to replace Mbappe.
The feck is TUS? No, I've watched all of our games and come to that conclusion by using my eyes. It's fine if you use Twitter accounts to think for you though.
It seems that Rashford would love to keep jogging around for 300k a week
Worth more on the p&l than we would get in transfer fees for him.
