We’ve looked equally toothless yet considerably more defensively solid. Taking him out has removed the way he was actively detrimental to the team. So that’s a positive. It’s obviously unfortunate that nobody has been able to better his almost non existent attacking threat but ho hum, we don’t miss what was never there.
Shame that Garnacho helping out defensively has cost him going forward. The poor touches and snatching at chances is possibly linked to his effort at the other end. This is where a Sancho would be useful.
 
I can’t forgive a player giving up, not tracking back, not pressing, ducking out of 50/50s. A player so highly regarded within the club on such a mind blowing contract. Earth shattering money. With so much faith put into him.

to barely try and have the body language he does.. your playing for man united. What a honour and privilege that is. Every time you go pull that shirt on it should spur you on, to give everything you got. if it doesn’t, you should leave.

You run for 90 minutes and never ever give up. No matter what. You never ever give up. It’s the bare minimum expectation. The very least.

I’d sell him at the first possible opportunity and give the honour to someone who tries.

Yep. This is what has turned the fans against him. He appears to think he's above the hard work necessary, especially when in such dogshite form.

Hopefully PSG or someone will fork out for him, but if doesn't seem likely.
 
Marcus Rashford needs to be sold as much for his future as well as ours. His time is done at the club.

this begs the question: what is wrong with him?

will he write a book at 40 mentioning the mental health issues he suffered during his playing career? Or did he just get moody and lazy all of a sudden?

he genuinely looks disinterested. Turned into Martial with his body language and facial expressions which spreads so much negative energy.

Spot on.

Can never forgive a player who behaves like him. He's a disgrace to the club

cant blame the manager who backed him and tried to play him into form, he doesnt really have a leg to stand on
 
You think? Bournemouth have scored 15 goals in their last 6 matches. Remind me how many Newcastle have scored over the same period?
Why are you only including the last 6 matches I wonder…

no one really knows. It isn’t normal to go from last season to this, I don’t think I can think of a player with a bigger drop off in a season. It looks like he’s genuinely upset at something, pissed off almost.

He’s already the most inconsistent player out there but this is something different. This is lack of effort and attitude. If it’s his attitude then he needs to be sold asap because this will keep happening every time he doesn’t like something. If it’s mental health he needs to take time out to deal with it properly, I think most people would understand that.
 
You spend a lot of time wondering. Here’s a clue. Look up how recently we played both these teams.
Yet still stands that Newcastle are a better attacking team than Bournemouth
 
Hojlund doesn’t not get chances when Rashford isn’t playing
 
It could be one of the reasons why his goals dried up this season. He is a counter attacking striker type. Last season we played more long ball in counter attack with DDG.

This season with Onana we spend 50% of our game time with slow and save passes around defence and GK. Our attack this season are also much slower with too many unnecessary touches and passes

Rashford is more suited to last season play.
 
Yeah apart from the times Rashford has teed Hojlund up nicely
You might want to check your post doesn’t make much sense, unless you are making a joke?

Rashford can’t tee him up when he is not playing like I said

Your post wasn't referring to yesterday specifically, I posted off the general point you made

It feels like there's unrest between him and the manager for whatever reason. Plus the Sancho situation, when players are close with one another and they feel mistreated it could have a detrimental effect on the squad when they aren't sold immediately. There was talk in the press a few months back that a select group of the players were unhappy in the dressing room I don't like to speculate but I reckon it's pretty telling that Marcus was one of them.

No it doesn’t stand. As I said, compare their goals tally over the period of time we played both those teams. One team scored a lot of goals. One didn’t. Some more wondering for you. If a team A scores less goals than team B over an equivalent period of time is it really a better attacking team?
 
:lol: it's my fault man.
Totally misread the initial post, thought you said Hojlund did Not get chances if Rashford plays :lol:
I did try to tell you hahaha

Yes for a few weeks Bournemouth also scored more goals than City. You want to also argue they are a better attacking team than City? There is a reason a season is not 6 weeks long

Yeah I agree. Which makes it even worse in my opinion; what happened to playing for the club, the badge and the fans? If you don’t like the manager that’s one thing.. but your on mammoth money to play for your club. It’s inexcusable if it’s the case and another reason why we should be sold along with sancho.
 
In hindsight, he is the guy whose career took a wrong turn when he decided he is going to be a striker. Had he decided to be a right winger then what a player he could have been to united. IMHO young Rashford had everything to eventually become a legendary RW.

In that scenario he would just of been behind Greenwood, and if we are playing the hindsight game then where do you stop.

Rashford has a lot of deficiencies to his game, they would all be visible no matter where he played on the pitch.

Best outcome might be praying for PSG to target him as a Mbappe replacement.
 
I think it's time to give him a start today with the mandate that he fecking gets the ball into Hojlund (and of course put in a shift defensively.)

The remit should be that Hojlund gets the ball to him, not the other way around. You set up your team to get your stars to perform - the stars of this team are Bruno and Rashford and we are currently compromising both of them in favour of McTominay and Hojlund, neither of whom have yet shown anything to demonstrate that they should have a team built around them.

Personally, I’d stick McT upfront and Højlund on the bench, with McT having the remit to keep it very simple, hold the ball up and get it to Bruno, Eriksen and Rashford. Hojlund can then come on hopefully against a tiring Villa defence with space to use his pace.

Why better right than left?

Didn’t Rashford himself say he saw himself as a right winger when he was a teenager (isn’t there like some sort of self written report, or social media post kicking about?).

Didn't he say in that short interview with Neville some months back that he prefers LW, then striker and then RW
