If you're still slagging off Rashford at this point, you've got an agenda or are clueless.
Must be around 20 goals this season as an inside forward and we are barely over halfway.
A lot of fans dont know what they want from Rashford and its clouding their judgement. He isnt a creator, he isnt a number 9. Hes a very potent inside forward who stretches teams and scores every other game and is extremly difficult to stop. He basically is our front 3 this season.
Rashford has less goals and assists than several ‘lesser’ players at ‘lesser’ teams.Crazy post.
He's been balling on season the left. Can't slice and dice it any other way.
Players with more assists: Kane, Fernandes, De Bruyne, Grealish.Rashford has less goals and assists than several ‘lesser’ players at ‘lesser’ teams.
He’s very, very good and much less of a problem than Martial but he should not be on this bizarre pedestal that fans and parts of the media like to put him on
He has the most goals from any left inside forward in England and assists as well.Rashford has less goals and assists than several ‘lesser’ players at ‘lesser’ teams.

Conveniently picking assists alone when I’ve clearly mentioned goals and assist not just assists.Players with more assists: Kane, Fernandes, De Bruyne, Grealish.
Which of them is a lesser player? Or are we doing that thing again where we're only talking about assists made with the left foot inside the six-yard box in the last eight weeks?
Cresswell and Digne have more goals and assists than Rashford?Conveniently picking assists alone when I’ve clearly mentioned goals and assist not just assists.
You’ve also excluded Cresswell and Digne but that doesn’t suit your argument, does it?
In terms of assists that you’ve mentioned, all the players bar Fernandes have played less minutes than Rashford. Some considerably less.
Which players at lesser teams do have 28 goals and assists this season then? I’d love us to sign a right sided one if you can identify one.Conveniently picking assists alone when I’ve clearly mentioned goals and assist not just assists.

Some people said Rashford was shite and a flash in the pan in about 2017 and they just refuse to admit they were wrong despite all the evidence.Imagine using energy to slag off Rashford after another performance like that from Martial. It's just weird.

Catch up.Cresswell and Digne have more goals and assists than Rashford?
No you catch up.Catch up.
BrexitBrigade talked solely about assists for some reason.
And the only one of those players to break his back during that period of time.Tweet

I'm confused, literally or figuratively?And the only one of those players to break his back during that period of time.
ok.No you catch up.
You said Rashford has less goals and assists than several "lesser" players at "lesser" teams.
Go on then, name them.
Literally. Unless I’ve got confused about the dates?I'm confused, literally or figuratively?

He had a stress fracture in his back in the middle of last season iircI'm confused, literally or figuratively?
So he doesn't have less goals and assists combined than any of them?ok.
Rashford has less goals than Callum Wilson, Patrick Bamford and Ollie Watkins.
He also has less assists than Grealish, Digne and Cresswell.
I just don’t think he is as good as some people seem to think he is. He floats in and out of games and often offers very little for 80+ minutes of a lot of games.
He could, and with his talent, should offer more on a game by game basis.
He's in the top 4 players in Europe for goals and assists this season. Might even be 3rd now after today I'm not sure.ok.

Why the Rashford hate? He is far and away our best left sided forward. Did you not get school dinners as a kid?Catch up.

Really odd to be holding these things against Rashford. Who yeah probably isn’t having his best season.ok.

Surprised you’d forgotten. He injured himself after a run of absolutely unbelievable form. And hasn’t really hit those heights since. Although it’s impressive that he’s remained so productive.https://talksport.com/football/6980...pdate-manchester-united-ole-gunnar-solskjaer/
That Covid break made this story an unknown for me. His absence I would have remembered with a normal season I reckon.
Isn't it hilarious? And I'm accused of "conveniently" focusing on assists to highlight just how full of crap the "lesser players" argument was (Digne and Cresswell don't have more assists anyway, so nice stat-padding, chap).So he doesn't have less goals and assists combined than any of them?
It's baffling. It's not like we're saying he's perfect or without flaws, it's that he's clearly better than some on here are willing to give him credit for. The fact that so many of his detractors have to fall back to "the eye test" to support the argument that he's not good enough is very telling.Isn't it hilarious? And I'm accused of "conveniently" focusing on assists to highlight just how full of crap the "lesser players" argument was (Digne and Cresswell don't have more assists anyway, so nice stat-padding, chap).
If we go by combined goals and assists, Rashford is the 8th-most effective player in the league this season. If we take away penalties (which he doesn't take while the majority of players ahead of him do - Son and Calvert-Lewin the major exceptions) he's 6th, behind Kane, Son, Fernandes, Bamford and Grealish. So sixth in the entire league, behind two of the very best players in the league, two other good players having great seasons, and one admittedly rather crap player having an outrageous season.
This is somehow meant to show that he's just not good enough.
I swear, at this point you people are better off just saying "I don't like Rashford's face".
I think this is something that isn’t being made as big a deal of as it should. He literally broke his back when he was hitting the form of his life. To recover this quickly and be on course to have his best scoring and assisting season yet is a big deal.And the only one of those players to break his back during that period of time.
Would take Ollie Watkins in a heartbeat in a hypothetical swap with Martial scenario. Heck even Michail Antonio would do a far better job than standing around like a lamp post.Fixed it for you.
Very true we should sell this summer but many of our board just care about the money he is making the club and then some of our fanbase are also a bit sentimental about him being sold which is madThis thread was just highlighting that the duo doesn’t work as well together as we thought last season. Is Rashford occasionally frustrating? Sure. His numbers are good but he’s wasting lots of chances and making us even more predictable a lot of the time. The one time he finally slipped Shaw in we could have scored easily. I would much rather a creator in at least one of the wing positions next season and Rashford is going nowhere so...
Martial. It’s clearly a mental problem isn’t it? It’s not a just drought. He is a player we could still get good money for and he could go on and play really well for another club but we don’t really need him. We need to get a more creative player in his place and the squad will be that bit more balanced.

Go on then, name them. Rashford has I think 26 goals and assists combined this season.
Post something, when someone posts stats to prove it wrong, move the goal postsok.
