Been like this for years, finally this forum is calling him out on it, and the idiots who blamed Mourinho, Ole, his injuries, him being young, rangnick, his position have gone mighty quiet. The guy has, bar his breakout 6 months to a year under LVG, always been crap. But since we gave him the mega contract and made him the golden boy his lack of effort has been atrocious. Should be nowhere near this club, but will likely be getting another huge contract renewal shortly and another 5 years will pass of United slipping further and further down the table and Rashfords fans will be wondering why.Guy is a prick, walking around the pitch with no fight. As though he is doing us a favor by playing.
I know Chelsea would have sold him by now if an offer came in.
Hes a coward. Any bid north of 40m we should accept. No we won't get a replacement but you don't need to replace nothing. Put garnacho in
While he has often been overrated, that's going over the top. He was fantastic in 19/20 before his back injury, really carrying our attack for a while and truly looking like he was on the verge of stepping up to world class level. Opposition defences couldn't handle him.Been like this for years, finally this forum is calling him out on it, and the idiots who blamed Mourinho, Ole, his injuries, him being young, rangnick, his position have gone mighty quiet.

Get him out!
Every word of this.I’m so so far from his biggest fan, in fact I’ve been onto him way before last season but the comments in here are surprising I thought he was rather decent today. Maybe my standards for him are very low

I will insist again.
I believe him to be a striker, not the type with back to goal. Just the poacher type.
Yet for his profile we keep avoiding putting him in a position where has to compete to start.
His lack of creativity rules him out of that wide forward berth. That position should be Garnacho’s till we sign a more experienced/better wide forward.
I don't know what to say, he doesn't understand or care about the shape of the team, he doesn't press, avoids any sort of duels, doesn't run at defenders with the ball, doesn't run behind the defense, he doesn't cross and seldomly tries a pass that may break a line. I don't think that I'm exaggerating?
Watching him play Football is demoralizing.
Dele Alli.He looks finished. I don't think I've ever seen a footballer capitulate like he has over the last 12 months.
I genuinely don't think he wants to play anymore. I think the injuries, then penalty miss at the euros broke him.
Ignoring whether he is good enough. What position do you see him contributing more in this team as it stand presently?He's not a striker. He has one good attribute which is running in behind. However even in a limited poacher role he lacks finishing, composure, movement and awareness in the box, heading, desire or anticipation to get to loose balls/rebounds/on the end of crosses. Essentially, he doesn't even have a poachers instincts, which is pretty essential for being a poacher. And then on top of that, you have the additional attributes that a striker is required to provide at least to some extent - holding up the ball, strength, linking play, competiting to win long balls or flicks ons, pressing, passing, dribbling, decision making, distance shooting etc - even your typical 90s forward in a 442 was less limited than him (think Andy Cole or Solskjaer as examples, who were superior in every way).
He's just not anything, beyond a very limited player at this level. There is no role or position he would excel in at the top level. He should move to a side that plays counter attacking football and will play to his strength(s).
I feel somewhat bad typing this. A few years ago he showed, to varying extents, glimpses of all the skills I listed in the first paragraph. There are probably numerous factors behind his decline. But in terms of getting the best out of him or what role he should play, then my suspicion is that he needs to play in a system that plays to his one primary strength, and in that system his all round game would probably be less shit as he would have some confidence at least, and be afforded more space where his deficiencies would be less exposed.

Finally realising he's a kick and run merchant are we? Only took 3 extra years for some of us
Ten hag keeps starting Maguire and other underperformers so nothing surprising there.Can't believe Ten hag wants to keep him
Team can’t defend and has no midfield so let’s all pile in on a wide attacker as the issue. This place with its agendas, toxic as feck. Once Ten Hag has built a foundation the rest will fall into place.
Keep telling yourself that mate. Everyone including Bruno, Sancho are being slated in their threads. There are no agendas. They have been poor for well over a year now and people are just pointing that out.Team can’t defend and has no midfield so let’s all pile in on a wide attacker as the issue.

I don't know what happened to him. He was on the cusp of world class.
Either those injuries ruined or he doesn't care about football anymore.
