Are we really going to give him 200k a week? Giving mediocre performers big contracts is all we're good at right now.
I don't hate him at all. I just can't understand how anyone who's watched Neves dissapoint on many occasions in the EPL would want him at United with our current issues.
But I do agree with signing top notch players, and if the youngsters are good enough they'll break through regardless.

Sad, but pretty accurate.He isn't worth 100K. Another overhyped youth product. Should be out on loan to a midtable team but Woodward and even Ole have stoked his ego too much for him to believe he is anything but a starter.
According to the press, he's stalling and won't sign unless he is given 200k
Of course it's the media though, so I'm not really believing anything. See it all the time with biased articles, documentaries and films...
Had a bad feeling the moment he called him "Rashy"
At least its better than JLingz

Eh? Ole has been a massive fan of Rashford long before he got here. You’re kidding yourself if you think he’s going to be anything but a 1st choice striker next season.
There’s a reason Lukakus’ agent is in the media speaking about a possible transfer. He knows Ole wants to build an attack around Rashford and he doesn’t fit in his plans.

@Strats
Rashford became selfish because of Mourinho.
When he started playing as a LW he found himself further and further away from the box so he started taking shots from far instead.
Now its quite an annoying aspect to his game. When he broke through he looked like a poacher of sorts - finding himself in the right place at the right time; scoring headed goals and nice crisp finishes.
Now he is trying to turn himself in to the wrong Ronaldo by being Cristiano all thanks to Jose.
If no one remembers what type of striker Rashford was - check out his highlights under LVG. He plays a complete different game.
I don't know much about Mourinho and his behind the scenes coaching methods but, I'm 100% convinced he did not tell him to become like this... I mean, after all...He didn't exactly tell the countless other strikers to be like Diet Ronaldo... This is the first time I have ever read or seen such a thing
Wipe your chin...There's some shite on it
Is it sunshine? There's some of Jose's shite on your chin and I can see by the stress this has caused you
Rashford changed his game when he started playing as a winger because he had to shoot from longer distances. What Jose said to him or not is negligible but I can see why his muppet would be a tad protective.
Rashford hardly had these shots under LVG. Is it so hard to consider that a winger has to take shots from distance and learn how to cross and even possibly take free kicks
So protective - such a loser.
Sorry but, did you call me a loser and a muppet?
Yes I did and am glad you are happy.
Keep it up sunshine & If anyone offers you it; take the Blue Pill and not the Red One okay?
Pal, it's 8:50am on a Thursday.
You are posting about watching highlights of Rashford's style of play when LvG was manager and his style of play when Mourinho was here. You're now on the internet, getting angry, calling someone a loser and a muppet and basically saying they need to take a pill to restart their life because they have the audacity to not agree with you and call you out on complete nonsense...
Unless you're in retirement home, I'd suggest logging off and getting some sleep. Or a job.
Or, you can keep watching YT highlight videos and posting insults to me and whoever else you feel the need to direct your frustrations out on. I don't really care.
I didn't even talk to you - you said I got shite on my chin. Has your memory gone? Are you sure I'm the one who needs a care home? Just stop talking to me because I wasn't the one who talked to you. Take care. I'm so glad Jose has gone
In the context of where our squad/wage combination sits then around 200k a week is exactly what kind of deal he should be signing. It is somewhere just ahead of Lukaku, behind Pogba and Sanchez and in front of Luke Shaw. The outlier being Martial who is on a deal probably twice what he is worth pushes Rashfords base salary from behind Lukaku and in front of Shaw to in front of Martial and behind Pogba.
In a perfect world we wouldn't have Sanchez on Eleventy billion+, Pogba and Martial on 200+, Shaw and Lingard on 100+ (although nearly 10 years of a sub 30k a week for Lingard making the pay jump for the service level was atm does make some sense) and you'd probably give Rashford 'Lingard/Shaw' money.
Lukaku as an import who had nearly 100 goals in the league when we signed him is probably the closest value for salary player we have in the senior playing group at the moment. Or Smalling who's 100k/w deal is well short of what he should be paid for the level of service he has given us.
Everybody will more than likely be hurling insults around and arguing ferociously with each other whilst not taking this in context. Nearly all of our senior players are grossly overpaid and there is no squad hierarchy for building a cohesive unit. Luke Shaw's contract was far too much for what he's produced so far, Martials likewise. Even bringing guys like Zlatan and Pogba in has massively distorted our wage bill (although Zlatan brought the full package with it in terms of leadership, pedigree etc. etc)This is (sadly) true and if Rashford really is demanding something like £200k/week then I see that as nothing other than perfectly logical given what we pay the rest of the squad for what they contribute with. Not that the majority of them come even close to actually deserving their wage, but since the club has rewarded mediocracy for so long I don't see why Rashford would be stupid enough to not try to cash in on it just like everyone else has.
Can we rename this thread "Rashy performances?"
Rashy is a terrible nickname, makes him sound like a child
Rash is better, despite it being a word to describe recklessness or an itchy skin condition.
I wonder if Jesse tells his mates to call him JLingz.
Takes me back to the days of Wayne "Wazza" Rooney, Tom "Clevz" Cleverley and Danny "Welbz" Welbeck.That's what Ole calls him.
Rashy, Chongy, Pogy, Linzy...
Sounding like a best mate rather than manager
Rumours he wants assurances that he is to be played as our main centre forward and 200k pw. We have no option to make sure this happens if true and hope he enjoys bagging 12 goals for West Ham next season.
