The best news!
But you have to bear in mind the player will often be desperate to play for his country in a major tournament
We'd be stupid to play him before the end of the season and allowing him to be in contention for England.
England also have the likes of Kane, sterling, Sancho and Grealish and are hardly in desperate need of Marcus.
I could be wrong (I hope I am) but I can't imagine any other set of fans in any other countries having the 'who cares about the national team' the way so many fans in England feel about their national team. I kow the England team is perceived to have underachieved a lot, but at least we make it to the tournaments. Scotland and Wales haven't got a great record in qualifying for the tournaments, yet their fans still passionately care about their national teams.
The media takes a share of the blame, they used to hype us up a lot then throw the team under the bus when they failed. 2018 was a notable exception. I care abut England doing well as much as I care about Man United and no amount of disappointment will change that. We (Man United fans) have had plenty of disappointed since 2013 yet that doesn't stop us supporting them. Why should the national team be any different?
Nah don’t really care about England, I’ll enjoy the major tourneys when they are on but it’s 100% Utd >>>>>>>> EnglandI could be wrong (I hope I am) but I can't imagine any other set of fans in any other countries having the 'who cares about the national team' the way so many fans in England feel about their national team.

Euros will hopefully be cancelled due to covid.
I was just looking through the penalties United have got in the PL.
We have 10 which is 3 clear of second place. We're well clear of the rest in terms of being awarded penalties.
But more to the point, I went back and looked at who earned them:
Chelsea
Rashford won it
Rashford scored
Wolves
Pogba won it
Pogba missed
Palace
McTominay won it
Rahford missed
Leicester
Rashford won it

Norwich
James won it

Fred won it
Martial missed
Tottenham

City

Norwich
Williams won it

Watford
Bruno won it

Rashford doesn't get the credit he deserves for this in the stats, but he's won 4 penalties this season. When the opposition can't stop him legally, they have to stop him illegally. We miss him a lot.

Me too.I miss him. My favorite player in united.

A good lad our Marcus.
Concerning his injury I hope he's not feeling pressured to comeback too quickly due to the upcoming International tournament.
I feel he needs a good recovery period without being in a pressured state.
Miss him too. Fantastic player who got his injury at the worst time for him. I hope it doesn’t knock him off his stride as he was really in the ascendancy at the time. I believe he was going to push on to become a 35 goal player next season with the way his trajectory was going.
We need at least one of the front 3 to be a ruthless, goal-a-game forward, and I think that could be him.

I think he’d have gone on to smash the Euros as well. Honestly felt like this was ‘his year’. Furious.The injury was such a shame.
He'd have absolutely walked the PL golden boot the way it's gone. He's still only 3 goals off Vardy and Aubameyang.
If he can score 20-30 goals a season from wing forward position, why need to start him as a striker?If he turns into Henry (started on the wing, then became a fabulous striker), it may solve "where would Grealish play?" conundrum. Although I have a serious doubt it will happen. His finishing is just not there. So LF is his best bet for now.
