What's funny to me is that your opinion was the consensus opinion on the Caf all summer, up until Rashford's goal on Monday. I guess that's all it takes for most posters to change their minds around here.
Marcus Rashford - Linked to PSG
- Thread starter saik
- Start date
As of now he's only semi decent we're we'd get a lot of space.
Awful today. If there’s serious interest we should get that money in and get Gakpo and/or Memphis for the left.
He worked hard and is a bigger aerial presence than a few years ago. Held the ball well I think.
Will never be a striker.
Useless.
He’s literally only good when he has half the pitch to run into space. Did he hold the ball up once today? Seriously, couldn’t be further from a striker if he tried. Don’t even recall any point where he ran at a defender.
Did he play the fully 90? I saw him on the pitch after the final whistle and was still wearing his shirt but I was watching in A bar in Albania with the sound off but would be really surprised if he managed 90 as I don’t remember seeing him at all since the first half
He played the full 90 and was absolutely anonymous in the second half.
He's a genuinely flawed footballer.
Yeah should cash in
Yeah that's only time he looks good
Not at all. Rashford is left wing if Martial is fit. Without martial, yeah we have nobody so it's Rashford. If we get Antony and Memphis, it's Antony, Rashford and Sancho rotating on the wing which is the intention imo.
I'd still sell him. He's just not got the technical qualities required and his flair / ability to make things happen has completely disappeared. Players like him and Elanga kill our ability to dominate and control games as they lose possesion with minimal pressure.
If he were on lower wages, him being backup to Sancho and possibly Antony for awhile would work but he's paid big money and he isn't worth half of it right now.

Yeah I would too he's a saleable asset, allow us to get Antony and top striker too
I doubt PSG will want to spunk a load of cash on him when he's available for free next summer
it's not like they need him for the first 11 anyway

We can extend his contract by a year and sell him next summer.
oh thats good to know, I think we should do that as he just isn't the same player as 2/3 years ago
We cant hold the ball at all up front. Elanga is allergic to a ball, cant hold it longer than 1 sec, 2 tops if he has little space to run. Rashford is more expierenced than Elanga and gets to hold the ball for a second longer then we have Ronaldo who really doesnt give 2 cents, he cant be bothered. Our front 3 is mid table at best. Solid defence will get us Uefa league, but we need to kill games in order to fight for champions league again.
We need a open heart surgery up front, replace all except for Sancho.

We can't rip up front three in 4 days
You see the same pattern in big players who have lost the motivation/legs before. Rooney, like Rashford, could set himself up for the big games and be motivated for that one game, and then fade in mostly other games. Pogba had this problem too (not lost his legs though). Hopefully Rashford can be as hungry and active in all games as in the Liverpool game, but it’s very optimistic to guess he’ll be that.
Sell. Sharpish.
Any club with any pragmatism would sell him.
Too many low IQ emotional takes on him after he puts in one good performance out of 100.

Please Sancho first.
I was wondering why someone was complaining about people's IQs on a football forum, then read the next poster's tagline...Is this a new age version of small weener obsession?

Why are you suprised when IQ is related to football in any sense? Understanding of the game and how it should be played could be translated in IQ. Every player is a chess piece so they say.
IQ is outdated and completely meaningless when applied to footballers.
I wouldn’t have an issue selling him as long as the money was reinvested in a quality replacement. I don’t think he’s indispensable. Plenty of better options out there.
But wouldn’t want to sell him if it meant we ended up using the money to have an Obertan, Owen type window.

Yeah that is a very valid concern especially when those leeches have already done that once
exact same two geezers
