They have a far better player in his position and can outbid us for anyone else in the summer.
Rashford considering his future...
- Thread starter Jericholyte2
- Start date
Read the room.
The only person to blame for his lack of game time, is himself.

Sad to say it, but many here were worried that the amount of game time he was getting under Ole - and the injuries he was playing through - would have their impact.
He's looked absolutely burned out for the last year now, and his surgeries don't seem to have done much to restore him to his past level. Shame.

I should have put white text
I needed a good laugh. Rashford for £80m after the year he's had on the pitch? Sure.
What next, Haaland and Bellingham to United in the summer?
If he’s the Mbappe replacement PSG are fecked
He has been mostly trash for the last year and a bit it's felt and incredibly infuriating to watch. If he was a player at any other club I would not want him at United, especially on his wages and probable fee
But on a purely sentimental side, it is sad. He is one of our youth players who we hoped to build the future of the club around. He is, as crude as it sounds, great for PR in both a footballing and non footballing sense
To put it blunt though, if this is his new level then he has no business being here. He may get a big club taking a punt on him abroad like PSG, Madrid etc. (laugh all we want but they have signed way worse players and Rashford is still a big enough name). I could equally see Newcastle throwing a bank at us and him though to make themselves credible

If there is any truth in this at all, I'll be very disappointed, the lad has not been in form and is questioning being benched as a consequence.... The level of delusion and ego there is shocking really, and this after our current publicly claimed he'd do what he can to get him firing again...
Here i thought he was one of the good eggs, if his attitude is this poor can't even imagine some of the others, the 2/3 years claimed by experts to turn things around is but wishful thinking, it's going to be 5+ years, the entire squad will have to be flushed down the drain.

Indeed, they'll be harping on about their past form and blaming everyone but themselves.
Not just Rashford.
Every player in the squad should be doing that same thing. Become, it is absolutely clear that very few of them really understand what being a Manchester United player.
It is not just about their totally unjustified wages.

I thought his PR people said only a couple of months ago, that he hadn’t done much of that charity work last year and almost none this season?
It's just sad how far he's fallen. I didn't think he was going to be some world class player in the future, but at least a mainstay in the squad for his whole career.
He just doesn't look like he's bothered at all, which is infuriating for a lad who's supported the club his whole life and is now living the dream by playing for them. Every minute he plays he should be working his arse off! If he gets dropped, make it a priority to impress in training! Instead he strops about hoping his off-field PR is enough to warrant starting every week.
Whether it's his injury, or still not letting go of that penalty miss for England, it doesn't matter. We shouldn't have to put up with him if he's playing like shit.

Don't see anyone shelling out any cash for him, will likely leave on a free at the end of his contract. Like his mate Lingard, holding out for the big signing on bonus as a free.
In the last Ten years, United have managed to take great young players, full of potential and mentally destroy them.
Rashford blamed his injuries, played Euros, forced surgery late on, had been just as bad as before.
It's more psychological at this point than physical.
Seems its a common theme throughout the squad.

Now this is the kind of sale Newcastle would gobble up, if you ask me.
I think we ruined him (well, Ole did) with his back (not shoulder), and selling him on would be a shrewd move.
Whatever else is up with him, he's not giving any reason to justify his wage, playing time or even being a supposed United-calibre player.
If 'we' hadn't broken him, I would not want him sold, but that has come and gone now, so it might be best for all parties that he goes.

Love rashford, but if this story is true, it's laughable
He's been brutal for a while. Can't even see if would take a punt on him either where as over a year ago prob could have had big clubs in Europe interested in him.

If you weren't so shite, you would get more time. Feck off to Newcastle.
It's not us, it's you.
Bye. Have fun at Newcastle
PSG would be all over him if he was looking to move, not sure it’d be a good move for him, he needs greater responsibility to get the best out of him. Looks a shell of the player he used to be. Genuinely hope he can recover his past from. Top bloke and loves the club, I’d imagine (if this story has any truth), that things must be very toxic in the dressing room and he sees no other way to resolve it.
La Decision
Maybe PSG? He is the perfect* replacement for Mbappe, Al-Khalefi!
* = Poundland replacement
Let’s hope Newcastle want to break the bank on him and make him a statement signing. Should be £60m minimum, but I think we can get to around the £70m figure.
I wonder if he leaves, does that mean Martial can still forge a career here?

I wonder if this might be due to Sancho.
Sancho was bought as a plan to be our RW (was the main weakness of our squad last 2+ years) but has come in to play LW.
Martial got no game time due to Sancho at LW and Ronaldo at ST whilst arguably also being below Rashford & Cavani aswell so he ended up craving a loan.
Now Martial is gone but Rashford has to compete with Sancho for arguably his best and only position. He isnt getting games centrally over Ronaldo and Cavani whilst he is getting dropped for Elanga as a RW.
This is happening at the same time as when Greenwood is not our RW either.
The way some people like to talk about him you'd think he was David Beckham reborn before. 
Worse, I'm starting to think he himself thinks he is David Beckham reborn. He showed promise, but turned out to be an average one-dimensional footballer, thanks to Ole's coaching. I genuinely can't understand why anyone would want us to keep him, except sentiment.
Now would be the perfect time to sell him. We can get some 40-50 million quid for him, I reckon. Enough to finance a replacement. Plenty of others on the market - Diaby, Raphinha, Antony, etc.

Lots of talk that this has been lined up for awhile.
Not sure why his camp are putting this out now. Be better to just leave at the end of the season and say its about ambition. Cos, Lord knows, his performances haven't warranted more game time.
Rashford leaving would be a massive shame in my view. He's playing poorly and is in horrible form, but to lose a player like him would be such a damning indictment of the club in so many ways. We really are rotten to the core.
Players that we're interested in must be looking at us as such a poor prospect, why on earth would anyone sign for Utd now, limited options can be the only possible reason.

Let’s make the decision even easier for him and just get rid. I find it hilarious he’s the one considering his future as if he’s been hard done by. He’s been garbage ever since he returned from injury.
If anything he's been playing too much. Last year I could get him being of form due to health issues but this year not... Its not that he cant but its he's not bothered part which maddens me.
We all know what happens here - Man Utd will refuse to sell and he will continue to be poor before leaving for nothing when his contract expires.
I can see Martial as the starting striker next season.

Maybe Real Madrid will be interested in taking him. They love our players - Beckham, Ronaldo, Ruud, Heinze, Chicharito. I don’t want to see him leave but Madrid may have 70-80M stash somewhere to buy him, let’s hope
There are no guaranteed starters at Manchester United.
Anyone who wants to play every game at Manchester United, needs to excel game after game.
Rashford has been rubbish for a while and he's lucky he hasn't been warming the bench for longer.

You'd think he would fight for the position, not sulk all over the pitch.
I genuinely never thought going into 2023 we could be without Greenwood, Rashford and Martial. But it’s for the best especially with Marcus. He hasnt been a good player for over 2 years, he has put up good stats prior to this year but for a player of his age he should be heading into his prime years. He isn’t great at dribbling, is hardly a playmaker, super inconsistent finisher and doesn’t even seem as fast as he was before. I made a comment years ago saying that for him to have a long career at United with his level of talent then he needs to be that player that gives his all on the pitch, does the little 1% things that coaches love and learn to be a great supporting player for the better players in the team, but he now thinks he is the second coming of Ronaldo with the way he walks around the pitch.
He's got some cheek. Let him go if he pushes to leave, he's been shite for 2 years and has worked through every excuse under the sun to absolve himself of blame.
Liverpool would have sold him for £50m plus about two years ago and we would be bemoaning the fact they got such a good fee for an average player.
If they'd go for it, but I'm not sure he has the kind of profile, in a footballing sense, that would resonate with them, tbh. Whereas for Newcastle, landing a golden boy with perhaps the highest off the pitch regard, would be absolutely perfect for their 'project'.
That will be coming soon, same script every season.

I hope Lingard is off to Newcastle and that should help getting his best friend there.
the entitlement in the release is embarrassing. He is not playing even close to well. Yet he is seeking 'clarity and assurances over playing time. I'm honestly beginning to want to see the back of him
Rashford needs to realise he will be stepping down when he leaves here unless he bucks his ideas up.
