I can acknowledge the flaws in their game but I also am aware that selling them isn't the answer. This season has been a disappointing start for every player including them. But a few weeks ago if you'd had asked United fans if we should sell either Rashford or Bruno, the vast majority of them would've said no. I'm sure some fans have changed their mind since then, but I still don't think I'm in the minority. What we're seeing here is poor form from both players, and I'm confident they'll turn it around.You are probably the only poster that are defending both Rashford and Bruno. At least others are able to see the flaws in one or the other. I guess the majority on here are wrong and you're right. This has gone so far you're willing to defend them despite their consistent shit performances - game after game. Your dedication is almost admirable, but I guess you are satisfied where we were as a team.
I can’t be arsed with him anymore.
When he’s brilliant, he’s brilliant. But it’s just not often enough for us to rely on him. His work rate is laughable.
So we agree he's our best attacker. Good.
He is absolutely good enough. If we had two other attackers of his quality we'd be near the top of the league. The issue is we rely on him so people like you jump on all his flaws, scrutinise where he's looking when he has the ball, and demand he's dropped or sold. Bizarre behaviour.
By the way, of course he's not immune from criticism, nor is he world class. But he's very good. Let's look at the much more important issues like striker and RW.
I like Rashford. But you can’t really defend his performance today.This. Rashford carried out attack last season. Now many slaughter him.
That's not the issue though,I like Rashford. But you can’t really defend his performance today.
There is a reasonable question over him starting ahead of Garnacho today given the past 2/3 weeks of performances. Especially when he is not playing as a team playerThat's not the issue though,
The issue is we have fans calling Rashford crap, calling for him to be dropped from the team, calling him over rated etc.
He's our most potent striker, even this season, we drop Rashford who the feck do we put in instead!?
People on this forum have a habit of being extreme in their views, too emotional, too extreme and way too over the top, it's embarrassing.

People would have said the same after the start of last season. Small sample sizes can be very misleading. Never sane to draw sweeping conclusions about a player’s long-term output when he’s on a run of bad form/negative variance.
I remember that Ronaldo only got two by the end of September when he hit 42 in a season for us.
Of course not. My point was on the first 10 games or so not defining a player’s season.Be honest, do you see Rashford going through a similar metamorphosis? Rashford turns 26 this season too by the way.
He turns the ball over unnecessarily so many times that he leaves me pulling my hair out.
We lost that game because both Rashford and Bruno showed little to no composure in the final third. If we had players in the final third who looked to retain and recycle possession, we would've won that game imo. Our moves were constantly breaking down prematurely.

colour me surprised that his form tailed off after he earned his new contract worth £90m over the next 4 seasons. Happens to us all to regularly, a player will be immense to earn a new deal and then turn shiteThis. Rashford carried out attack last season. Now many slaughter him.
Can we stop peddling this nonsense? 3 good months doesn't equate to a season!This. Rashford carried out attack last season. Now many slaughter him.

Coincidentally it was you to whom i responded because you said the same thing in another thread. You have been peddling nonsense there and are doing the same here.Marcus Rashford didn't have a good season last year (season)? Are you seriously suggesting this?
Guy hit 30 goals.
And I'm 'peddling nonsense'
Some of the rhetoric on here is unreal
He had really good 3 months and then the whole team stopped performing after the cup win, including him.
He had 3 premiere league goals, 2 assists after our win against Leicester on 19th Feb. 3 goals 2 assists in 3 months.
"Christ".

Asking the vast majority is usually a bad idea, especially if it only takes a few weeks to change someones mind. In terms of poor form for Rashford, last season can be divided into segments of before and after the world cup. 19 matches played before the world cup, 4 league goals in 14 matches. The 19 matches after the WC, 17 goals, 10 league goals in 10 matches. The remaining 18 matches of the season it’s 5 goals in total, 3 goals in 11 PL matches. We’re hardly talking an even spread of goals throughout the season.
Essentially, including so far this season, he has 4 goals in the past 18 league matches, 2 assists. Considering his role in the team, where he is pretty much excluded from defensive contributions to be our main outlet up front, it’s a bit of a concern. Obviously we should have other players consistently chipping in, but yeah
There's a saying that goes you're only as good as your last game.That's not the issue though,
The issue is we have fans calling Rashford crap, calling for him to be dropped from the team, calling him over rated etc.
He's our most potent striker, even this season, we drop Rashford who the feck do we put in instead!?

I think he's our best and most promising attacker, but he's definitely holding the team back at the moment, for whatever reason. Perhaps he's missing his left back, perhaps he just doesn't buy into EtH's instructions, perhaps he's not executing them well, or maybe the instructions themselves are wrong. Whatever it is, EtH needs to sort this out as a priority. I'm not sure if the solution is to keep him going so he develops a chemistry with Hojlund and Amrabat/Reguilon, or if he needs to be dropped to provide him with more motivation to come off the bench and make an impact. I would prefer the former, still, because he has that odd moment of magic in him that leads to a goal, and it's not worth pissing off your only established attacker at a time of such turmoil.
I'm sure his three game suspension for violent conduct had something to do with that.I remember that Ronaldo only got two by the end of September when he hit 42 in a season for us.
He does need to be dropped imo.So why is Ten Hag picking them or at least not subbing them off? The loss is on him also for not making the necessary adjustments
Completely disagree. There were so many opportunities for him to release the ball early today either out wide or a simple pass in and around the box. But he preferred to dally around and shake his hips for feck all. He also lacked the thrust we saw last season. Completely frustrating to watch.He was tactically compromised today. He was expected to hold width and be creative today against a low block. It wasn’t going to benefit the player nor the team because our LB crisis left him isolated.
Against such team he should be taken off early or start from the bench.
I like Rashford and I criticise him a lot but he stood no chance today. This was a game for Garnacho to run them ragged and he comes on to finish them off or a better technician in Martial.
Did you even read the following post?
So, YES, you are peddling nonsense. His consistency sucks.
Every single one. Hideous player with a hideous attitude. The day he leaves the club we’ll be better for it.How many managers has he seen off now?
I wonder about Harry kanes Tottenham goal contribution last season. They seem to be doing alright…playing some brilliant football.This right here is an argument that a 14 year old would use. Do you think taking these players out means we play with 8 outfield players?
