Jesus ChristHappy he got us the win in the end but he is so wasteful for the majority of games and his decision making is poor. Against a team that won't play as badly as PSG did tonight, we can't afford to have him be so poor.
For 90% of the game he was our second worst player, Martial being the worst.
ThisUnited fans who just don't realize how special Rashford are morons. If he was playing for some other team then most of the same fans would be asking us to spend 100m to get him.
This
He was up against two 200million players in Mbappe and Neymar. What if they'd been on our side? I don't know what it is with our fans. It's like they've bought in to the endless negativity and can't drag themselves out of it even when we beat a team as good as psg (who haven't lost at home in the Champions League group stage since 2004 I believe?)
Clueless.I think the criticism of Rashford has been justified. He has looked a shadow of himself since lockdown. That's why fans are frustrated with him, as they know he's a good player on his day.
He just doesn't seem to affect the game, and his body language has been all wrong when things aren't going well. Obviously a great goal and that is what we want more of from him.
Rio said it best when he said Rashford needs to add the poachers goals and increase his numbers. He also needs to up his work rate and tracking back, because if he isn't scoring or assisting, he offers little else recently.
I saw a poster called Bruno lazy.The match day thread was at it again with him. Sure he made some mistakes or made the wrong decisions. But the absolute worst of it was that they called him lazy. I mean how clueless do you have to be to call Rashford lazy.
Really enjoyed his goal yesterday.
I saw a poster called Bruno lazy.
Sums it up for me!Lots of 'fans' seem gutted Rashford scored. Absolute jokers.
Clear off and support somebody else plastics.
Yes, when was defending one second and up with the attack the next- takes laziness to a new extreme!I saw a poster called Bruno lazy.
This forum is on a wind up. There's no other explanation. You will happily judge Maguire over one game but not a great season like last season then say you can't judge Rashford against the champions League finalists.That is comparing those players over one game. How about comparing them over a season or two or three?
Sums it up for me!
Morons on the match day thread last night were doing my head in. Things like, 'Rashford is shit,' defied belief
Clueless.
Martial has yet to have a single shot on target this season let alone score and its all anti Rashford as usual. He's got 4 goals now too. Hahahaha
It's becoming a joke. Mostly our plastic foreign fans too it seems. Maybe it's an English thing?
And I'm not having a go at Martial. His form will return too. Just making the point of the hypocrisy.
Some of you need to understand that Rashford criticism is more about what a monster he can become, rather than that he's a poor player.
Let me put it this way, he scored a great goal yesterday and was close to scoring from outside the box before.
BUT, his "pass" to Martial when we were 2vs1 was not even shown in feckin highlights! And it's a kind of situation he thrives on, acres of spaces to run into. Criminal that we didn't even get a shot from that.
If he improves on the easy things, he will be fantastic and that's the most likely way to take us up a level as a team.
You've totally misinterpreted what Rio said and using comments out of context to justify quite an absurd assessmentI think the criticism of Rashford has been justified. He has looked a shadow of himself since lockdown. That's why fans are frustrated with him, as they know he's a good player on his day.

At the same age Kane scored 26 while having a few years on loan.This, hes got all the tools to be one of the best strikers in the world, but consistency is a big issue.
That being said, last season was his best season yet, hes still young so if he keeps improving he will get there in time

If this is the case then they should support him. He’s 22, he not matured as a player or a person completely.
I've seem games when Salah was around 25 and fluffing many chances, took him a while to get his scoring boots. Be patient with Rashford.
People cheered after his goal, but he got his share of criticism. That seems fair as he fecked up a couple of times.If this is the case then they should support him. He’s 22, he not matured as a player or a person completely.
Jesus Christ
'We are going to need him to play better when we come up against truly elite opposition' are we?
Like for instance against a team that's spent a billion pounds on signings that made the champions League final? Scoring the winning goal and roasting their team quite a few times in the process?
The redcafe.
As a forward his job is to score goals and win us the game. That’s what he did with an excellent finish. You can’t even discuss about fluffed chances when he put it away when it mattered.Happy he got us the win in the end but he is so wasteful for the majority of games and his decision making is poor.

You're right that he looked poor after lockdown, but he's picked up this season. It's easy to miss because the team hasn't been great but he's sprinting again, pressing aggressively, and a lot more direct.I think the criticism of Rashford has been justified. He has looked a shadow of himself since lockdown. That's why fans are frustrated with him, as they know he's a good player on his day.

They werent elite because we made them look that way. Their FBs couldn't get forward because we put the fear of God into them, our mdifield is better than theirs and our defenders are very, very good at 1v1 defending. Us pinging their FB back isolated their front men and starved them of support and we broke on them the other way because those isolated attacker dont track back.PSG were not an elite team last night and it is clear that no pre season is having an impact.
Man City, Liverpool, United, Barca, Dortmund, Real, Juventus, PSG have all started the season fairly poorly compared to usual standards, which is clearly due to covid and no pre season.
Great win yes but don’t pretend PSG were good last night, Rashford can’t be so poor for 85 minutes of games and everyone be happy. He won’t pop up with the winning goal in every poor game, todays goal gives him some leeway in his poor performance.
Unless you are blind or watched a different game last night.

PSG are known to be a top 3 team in the world with a world class keeper and a amazing front 3. We won’t be playing a better team than that this season (apart from Bayern).

We made them look poor because we were excellent.
Lukakus big game record apart from ironically the Paris game in 2019 was dreadful. Worlds apart from Rashford who continually scores against the top 6 and in huge games. Again - I wouldn’t say Rashford was dreadful when he pops up with a moment of genius like that in a away game in the CL.Lukaku scored plenty of goals for the club, didn’t hide the fact that he was dreadful for the most part. Goal or not, Rashford played dreadful and his all round game has been poor all season. Criticism is justified.
Also they are not top 3 in the world at this moment, maybe in the latter stages of the season yes because their fitness levels will be at their normal level.
