Is there a place for Rashford as a regular starter?

[Gurtej]

I been saying for sometime…

We get any bid over 30m…. Just sell him…he is on what 200k a week????? Why a joke…. He plays blindly…. Has absolutely no brain….

 

[slored1]

Honestly Rashford, as much as I like him for his charity work, needs to take a long hard look at himself given how he's been playing this season. Utter garbage in every match. Doesn't even run much. Selfish. Walks as if he's the second coming of Christ.

 

[EtH]

Not even in bottom five of our worst performers tonight but the agenda must be peddled of course.

Legitimate 0/10 performance. Only player to rival Bruno’s stinker of a showing tonight.

 

[Chairman Steve]

Him being so abysmal is at the moment, the biggest takeaway from tonights game.

My god he’s bad and I’m not having that mental health card defence either. He looked pretty happy when he was in Dubai with old JLingz a few weeks back.

[Ayoba]

No.

Elanga starts over him!

 

[AFC NimbleThumb]

The guy scored 21 goals in all competitions last season with his arm hanging off, he’s come into the season late & admittedly not hit his stride but feck me some of the posts in here.

Legitimate 0/10 performance. Only player to rival Bruno’s stinker of a showing tonight.

Ronaldo, Varane, Lindelof Pogba and Bruno have all been worse.

Rashford hasn't played well either to be clear. But I think there's a huge element of confirmation bias going on here.

 

[oleoleoleole]

No, he’s done. Assuming he was ever actually even that good in the first place, which I question now.

Just got the assist with a great pass. At least he did something apart from walk around and lose the ball!

 

[Oldtraffordboy]

Rashy is struggling, but the reaction is over the top.

Some of the other performances today have been abysmal.

 

[Adisa]

Something is wrong with him. He looks like he would rather be anywhere than on the pitch.

You joke but Brighton are a very hardworking, meticulously drilled team. Rashford would have no place there.

The only bias is with you. Rashford was where the ball went to die tonight. Literally fecked up everything that came his way.

Been shit for well over a year, this isn’t a sudden poor patch.

??? Did you watch the match ? He and Bruno are the worst tonight. Need to go to optometrist ?

Agreed

The reaction is because he's been abysmal in every game this season.

And not only abysmal but also disinterested and lazy. At least some of the other ones who have stinkers put a shift in or look like they care.

 

[GifLord]

he's such a nothing player these days

 

[darko]

Great result.

 

[Godfather]

No. Should have kept Martial instead

 

[Ali Dia]

I just don’t know what he’d done to deserve a start today. He’s been dire all season. A genuine pain to watch him. Elanga all day every day. Work and form > Image and PR

 

[matt23]

No

 

[AndySmith1990]

He's a really poor player and I can only assume he's getting games based on his reputation at this point. It's certainly not earned through performances

 

[Garethw]

Has no right to be starting any games at the moment.

 

[Gurtej]

Ohhhhh…. Come on guys…
its Not about today….. he has been crap for a long time….. now unless we only play counter attacking football…. He doesn’t have brains for a smart player …

worse what is this nonsense about himnot looking happy again?????? What is he …?? An 8 year old…. Bloody hell do your job…. If u playing bad, Atleast put the effort in…. He is way too overhyped here…..

 

[Rightnr]

Not even in bottom five of our worst performers tonight but the agenda must be peddled of course.

Erm, he's been the bottom one of our performers for the season and he's supposed to be a superstar or something like that.

Apologists like you is why we're paying the modern day Danny Welbeck 200k a week.

 

[Chicharo]

Elanga deserves to start alongside Jadon. It's not just about tonight's game

This rashford unhappy crap need to stop amongst the poster. Boo hoo tough luck you are paid millions every year just swallow it and do your best. If anyone in any other field worked like him when they are unhappy they would be fired immediately.

 

[Offside]

We honestly need to look at getting rid. You can’t go so long out of form and expect anything else. Just so crap it’s unreal. First touch of a conference player, decision making of a 10 year old.

 

[Kopral Jono]

No.

 

[SER19]

Just stop even having the discussion it's embarrassing.

 

[MadDogg]

The only bias is with you. Rashford was where the ball went to die tonight. Literally fecked up everything that came his way.

The same could be said for Pogba and Bruno in the first half. Bruno improved a bit in the second half at least, but all three were as bad as each other in the first half.

 

[Someone]

Not sure what has happened to him. Others have been bad too today, but with him it's the decision making more than anything else. Every time he has the ball he makes the wrong call. He used to be much better, and the main criticism in the past was that he didn't convert enough chances. So I don't think we should give up on him yet, but someone needs to figure out what's wrong.

 

[L1nk]

Genuinely the worst player at the club currently. I seriously cannot fathom how bad he is. Skill aside he looks like he doesn't even want it at all

 

[Sandikan]

The fact we have to have this conversation, when Greenwood, Martial and Cavani aren't even in the picture really does say it all.

 

[Anduin]

Get rid in the summer. He’s been genuinely terrible since summer 2020, and has not improved since about 2018. I’m ok with players being crap, but his application and workrate is simply not there. He is lazy, uninterested and cruising through games. Sell as soon as a decent offer comes in and keep him on the bench until summer. Every minute he’s been playing this season has been a waste of time.

 

[Dimitar09]

Rashford's decsion making is so frustrating.
Tonight within the space of 5 minutes he got the ball and tried a shot from about 30 yards when he had full back overlapping in a better position.
Then the next play he gets it edge of the box and you want him to shoot, and instead he tried this nutmeg pass into Ronaldo. Through the eye of a needle.
Just infuriating at times.

 

[dave2528]

He's not capable of playing at this level at this point. Plays like he has horse blinders on.

Time for Marcus to move on and be diabolical somewhere else.

 

[Ralph1386]

He hasn’t improved in years.
