Saint Maximin is an inconsistent Nani.
and Nani was already inconsistent.
and Nani was already inconsistent.
How is his goal output related to his decision to wear tighter fitting kit and oil up his biceps?Haha! This forum. Last season it was Rashford vs. Mbappe (just as crazy) and now this. Rashford has never been close to Mbappe’s level and ASM has never been close to Rashford’s level.
In a world where football matches were decided by successful dribbles and not goals this would have been an interesting thread. ASM is turning 25 in 2,5 months, he has 26 goals in 223 senior games, is a lazy dribbling specialist and has his best season in his career by far, sitting on 4 goals and 3 assists in 1638 minutes (20 games) this season. An off form Rashford coming back from surgery has 3 goals and 1 assist in 745 minutes and works twice as hard off the ball.
The praising of Adama and ASM fascinates me: Fun to watch, frustrating to play with and no end product. Newcastle is fighting against relegation and plays a dribbling specialist who can’t score up front. They wont stay up.
Adama hasn’t contributed to a single goal this season, and still thinks he can pull off a size XS kit and oil up his biceps….
Probably with a third of the talent.Saint Maximin is an inconsistent Nani.

Rashford can only dream to do what SM do with the ball. What Rashford can do with the ball SM can do with an orange. This does not include finishing and shooting but seeing Rashford form nowadays they are not that far apart.SM at his best is a better player than Rashford. Both are inconsistent. SM is much stronger and has better skills.
Good post, sums up the threads on caf. Either players are best or shit and championship level.Haha! This forum. Last season it was Rashford vs. Mbappe (just as crazy) and now this. Rashford has never been close to Mbappe’s level and ASM has never been close to Rashford’s level.

For me it is. Because he has come back in a period where not a single player except De Gea is on form.Rashford has been cack for a year. Is that a blip in form?
You spell him wrong pleb peasant. Put some respect on Sir Rashford MBE name. Seriously he could do all the extracurricular stuff after he retire. If he wanted to focus on that he should retire as footballer now.One is a full time footballer and the other is Rashford The Great. Newcastle is Rashys’ level.
On reputation only at the moment. He has to start producing or sit on the benchYes he is.
Then of course it has to do with consistency if he's been terrible for a long time. He has talent and has games in the past where he's united level, he just doesn't do it regularly to make him elite level. My point was without consistency than he's not good enough, no player at united is good enough if they're not consistent. That's the standards.It's nothing to do with consistency. He's been terrible for a very long time. He's just not an elite level player, yet he'll still start most games ahead of Sancho and Mason.
Simply chalk and cheese. Rashford is levels above, which is why he's scored quite a few more goals by 24, than Welbeck has at 31. For worse United teams too.He is turning into Welbeck, which I am extremely disappointed to see. Although he did look decent when he was moved into the #10 role against Newcastle.
he’s barely outperformed him in 2021, and only one of them is playing for a relegation candidateRashford even in his current form would do better for Newcastle than ASM.
Question is whether Rashford is capable of being more than just a counter attacking player. To be a big player at a top club he'll need to evolve his game, it's odd that we've seen so little progress.
I have noticed this a couple of times now but why do you keep deflecting when players are criticised. Everyone being shit does not excuse rashford's performances. In other poor players threads same questions are being asked. It's not like rashford is a scapegoat for everyone. Also the players we expect most from (due to cost or potential) will get it the worst.Who at United is on form
Then some fans point and pick at Rashford for being shit!
Because Rashford came back from an injury and has come back to a team where not a single player is on form in the PL.I have noticed this a couple of times now but why do you keep deflecting when players are criticised.

True about the bench, but don't pretend ASM is anything more than a faster and bulkier AWB without the tackling.On reputation only at the moment. He has to start producing or sit on the bench
In fairness ASM is more than capable. He reminds me a bit of mane when he was at LiverpoolTrue about the bench, but don't pretend ASM is anything more than a faster and bulkier AWB without the tackling.
Truth be told, it was a lucky goal. The missing sitter is a better reflection on ASM.
He isn't there yet but his decline is undeniable. Wherever his head is he needs to get back to football being the focus or he will be another academy what could have been.Simply chalk and cheese. Rashford is levels above, which is why he's scored quite a few more goals by 24, than Welbeck has at 31. For worse United teams too.
He's in a major slump though, and the injury excuse is wearing thin now though.
I don't see it. He seems to me like a rugbier, like Adama. Looks really clumsy with his feet.In fairness ASM is more than capable. He reminds me a bit of mane when he was at Liverpool
team playing bad will mean he does not get the ball in good positions often enough or get chances to score. But team playing badly does not account for not being able to make simple passes or dribbling without looking up or not being asked to track back or make better decisions.Because Rashford came back from an injury and has come back to a team where not a single player is on form in the PL.
Some are saying he should be sold. Some are saying he was always like this; because he was shit during his injury and shit after his injury - during a time where only De Gea is playing to an acceptable level anyway.
I've said this for Maguire, Bruno, Greenwood even the new Sancho who is struggling to perform. You can't blame them when everyone is shit.
I said this least season. I Wish James had just been given Rashfords place for the second half of last season. He deserved it on work rate alone. I think we’d be seeing a different and much hungrier Rashford this season. He’s never had a genuine challenge for his place and he’s been playing like someone who hates the game for a very long time now. Get the ball lose it and do nothing about it on repeat. It’s far from good enough.I can't believe I'm saying this, but I genuinely think Dan James would have suited Rangnick more than this current iteration of Rashford.
You are getting very tiresome with your Ronaldo tripe. Not sure if you are obsessed with him or just looking for attention but there's no reason to be bringing him up as much as you do in threads that aren't about him.Not a single wide player has been good enough for us since we signed Ronaldo.
Ronaldo as a Striker doesn't make sense with players who are inverted forwards that are more likely to score a goal than set up a chance.
Benzema & Rooney was doing the work centrally to set him up when Ronaldo was a LW in his prime - why would Ronaldo as a central striker work with inverted forwards that are not very creative?
This is why Cavani is better than Rashford and Greenwood in a partnership to Ronaldo. Cavani is more similar to Rooney and Benzema than Greenwood and Rashford.
