Me neither. It makes no sense to me and it actually hurts my brain. Rashford is too raw
Worst performance of this season. He produced nothing in 90 minutes.
He's great when he comes on but good God he's got absolutely no skill or technique whatsoever. How he's starting games is beyond me.
Did he really play tonight??? Where the hell was he????
Said it before people got on my back.
Nowhere near good enough to start for us. Amazing how he is getting ahead of Martial. I bet Meyler was happy too.

He should be nowhere near the first team.
He isn't good enough to start. Impact sub at best.
Was saved from the hook by the Jones injury, dreadful all night and constantly gave the ball away.
Its this kind of shite that makes Mourinho play Rashford.
I'm all for youth but only when they are good enough. Rashford may or may not be, and of he is, it's still a few years away.
He certainly was no kind of nightmare for Hull tonight.
He is still only the dreaded word "potential". At times this game he looked lost.
He was essentially given the Martial role of "please create something individually brilliant in the rare occasions we give you the ball as opposed to forcing it to Valencia." It's absurd that Mourinho keeps deploying him like this instead of rotating him with Zlatan, but that's the situation we're in. I think he did what he could in his role given his skillset...it's a shame he fluffed his chance but the touch before it was brilliant, and that's the type of inconsistency I'd almost expect from a player of his age. I don't blame him for his performance, I fault the manager for insisting on playing him in a role that is completely ill-suited to him.
Shit performance but get off his back. He doesn't pick himself.
Feel bad for him but that was shocking.
He was ok tonight, good ideas but often poor execution and tends to get quite sloppy at times. I just don't think he's that good wide. I personally think Jose has got it wrong with him so far. He should have had more chances done the middle, either as a sub for Ibra or in some of the cup game against weaker teams. I's hard to suddenly shift from one position to the other but we could be getting more out of his threat in behind for me whether from the start or as an impact player.
Martial is a more polished version of Rashford. Whatever it is that Rashford can do, Martial just does it better. A good example? How Martial finished a pressure chance against Middleborough against how Rashford took his chance in this game. That was just amateurish from the kid.
It's not just about position.
It's some of his touches and passing are just awful. That's nothing to do with position.
He's played wide all his career in the youth team, so it's hardly alien to him. It's not like we telling Hernandez to play out wide.
Playing wide in reserves is a bit different to playing wide in the premier league and I think he himself has said he's learning the role. I did say as well that he can be sloppy. He stil offers a threat but think we've not managed him or any of the wide players well. We don't really do anything to get the most out of them and just keep trying long passes to them.
Not gonna give him a pass because he's young. He should have done better with that chance.
If it was Ibra, we would be saying "drop him"

Said it ages ago he is massively overrated and will end up at Sunderland. Simply not good enough, I don't see much qualities apart from pace.
Feel really bad for him. Should not be starting on the left wing at all. Have no clue why Mourinho keeps starting there? I hope he doesn't he feel like he's forced to because he's Uniteds golden boy.
Rashford should be starting up top or coming on and playing up top or on the wings. Nothing else.
Play Martial FFS. Jose is a stubborn bastard.

I thought he started out looking sharp but lost his way, he passes it quite well but his dribbling isn't up to much much for a wide player, lovely control on that ball from Pogba, shame he scuffed the shot.
True
Anyone questioning the kids ability is mad, in my opinion. Sunderland? You must be having a laugh. He's brilliant but he's not a winger. Play him up front and you'd see the same results as we saw last season. He's still very, very young and very raw.
Having said that, his competition shouldn't be Martial. He should be replacing Ibra when Ibra's cacked midway through the second half and is trying overhead kicks every 2 minutes. The point is Martial and Rashford should both be in the same team.

He was ok tonight, but he simply must at least challenge the keeper when in chance like he was after Pogba's pass.
Like i said ok, but he just doesn't have that taking on opponents skill as Martial has.
Much better through the middle, but it's not his fault he's being shoehorned in.

There's probably still a few who'd have him up top over Ibra.
He's too raw and not good enough at the moment. He can't be a consistent starter.

I don't understand why Mourinho starts him at LW. He seems to be much better as an impact sub
Watching him cross is like Valencia... never know what you're gonna get
Danny Welbeck is back into the squad?
Haters out in full force now but the thread barely moves when he has a good game 
Bad game, but decent effort from him considering the circumstances. His best games, as some mentioned, are always at #9 and on the right. We stop shoehorning him, and again this is a kid we're talking about who's had almost exactly one year of first team football under his belt, and we'll get United quality performances. You can't just fluke what he did from his debut until the Euros, way too big of a sample size.

His best games are when he comes off the bench.
Don't see people saying he shouldn't be playing left wing when he has a good subs appearance there coming off the bench.

Quite clearly not a LW but Mourinho is so tactically inflexible that he can't figure a way to Ibra and Rashford up front.
Like others have said you can't really blame Rashford. A 19yo striker being asked to run at defenders like Hazard and have the final ball to boot. Utterly clueless management.

Yeh. Been saying that he's still young and not a winger. Also with many senior players also played like shit, he's off the hook for this game in my eyes.
Talented as the kid is, can anyone say, in their heart of hearts, they think he'd do better in a 1 v 1 situation than the likes of Defoe?
He's as much of a left winger as Donald Trump. Bearable with a lack of options. Laughable when you have Martial on the bench.
I have all the time for him and will grow into a great footballer but he doesn't need to start ahead of Martial. He can come on as a sub and do a job. Can somebody also tell him to keep it simple at times and just stop and think instead of running into heap of defenders expecting them to be holograms?
If you mean 1x1 with a keeper, not 1x1 with a defender + keeper behind him, from the top of my mind he scored a peach against West Ham in the cup last year and schooled Hart in the derby. So yes, better than Defoe IMO.
Quicksilver with lead feet.
Its been awhile since he looked anything close to that.
When he first emerged I thought he was gonna end up being another Michael Owen. The only thing that stopped a young Owen scoring was injury. Rashford's hitting air shots.
Great against tired legs in the last half an hour but Mourinho's mistaken to rely on him at the minute.
