Todd has handled it all wrong
Purple patch Rashford was a 100m player in my bookCurrent (a.k.a normal) Rashford. £20m. Possibly lower. The Rashford that shows up once in every 3 years, £60m. Weighted average put its at about £46m-£47m.
Last game of the season is Villa at OT.
I’m sure he’ll get a lovely send off after all his hard work over the years. If he’s still making the squad by then.
Who knows? Might have been training or general behaviour behind the scenes (difficult to hide your real self from those who work with you everyday in a tournament environment) or perhaps Southgate just didn't fancy him, however, on the pitch on game day, he ran like a dog for England.
He probably will, and I wish him all the best. But part about moving on and the part most of our fanbase lack the ability to do is realising that a player can no longer work in one team but then work in another team. Doing well at Villa won’t mean he needs to come back or Amorim made a mistake. It’s not like selling Garnacho and then thinking he should come back. Or say Salah / De Bruyne leaving Chelsea and then thinking Chelsea were wrong or should have resigned them.Right to let him go of course, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if he had a great spell at Villa
Yeh, no.Sad thing is that even this Rashford is still better than Hojlund and Zirkzee.
I can see that honestly. When he's on, he's really on. Its just that it happens once in a blue moon.Purple patch Rashford was a 100m player in my book
This! For this reason, I can't even wish him well. Just leave alreadyThe most annoying thing is as a local lad, united through and through, he didn’t turn up when the club needed him the most. That’s what leaves the bitter taste I think.
nah. he started rashford at the beginning. he spoke to previous managers. he’d have discussed it at length with the club. like rooney said, it’s been two years now. he needs fecking off.It's sad news. I think Amorim has given up too quickly on Rashford. After all, he scored goals in the first games under the new manager.
I see it as a big weakening of the squad. Rashford will always be better than both Højlund and Zirkzee.
Now he is leaving Manchester United and can now play in the Champions League with Aston Villa....It is a setback that many are too stubborn to realize.
it's the other way round. Amorim dropped both Rashford and Garnacho for the City game and challenged them to adapt and put the work in. One responded and is now applauded by the manager. The other one said he's ready for a new chapter a day later.It's sad news. I think Amorim has given up too quickly on Rashford. After all, he scored goals in the first games under the new manager.

Yeah, I was done after the City game. If having to watch that from home, and seeing us win in the last moments, made him think of doing nothing else other than post "well done lads" on Instagram then nothing was going to motivate him to change his ways.The most annoying thing is as a local lad, united through and through, he didn’t turn up when the club needed him the most.

Bang on. And to preempt anyone that says "maybe Rashford is sick of being scapegoated by multiple managers" don't forget that Garnacho also got the same wake up call under Ten Hag twice and both times he got his head down and worked hard.it's the other way round. Amorim dropped both Rashford and Garnacho for the City game and challenged them to adapt and put the work in. One responded and is now applauded by the manager. The other one said he's ready for a new chapter a day later.
Good riddance.
Had a feeling Villa would go for him yesterday after they sold Duran for £60m. My main annoyance is how did Villa get £60m for Duran, and we can’t get a penny for Casemiro (I realise age) or Rashford
Oh ffsIt's sad news. I think Amorim has given up too quickly on Rashford. After all, he scored goals in the first games under the new manager.

An average speed of 60 mph?It's 60 miles, more like an hour.
The way Rashford drives probably more.An average speed of 60 mph?
I’ll say it now then. We’ll live to regret this, it’s a mistake.
You have a better chance to see bamboo flowers blossom than to catch and sell a purple patch Rashford.Purple patch Rashford was a 100m player in my book

I agree that a move to Villa seems completely weird. Rashford stated that he needed a fresh start. But is moving a few hours' drive away from Manchester really a fresh start? I would think that a fresh start meant a new league in another country, or at least a top club if he ended up staying in England.It's says he's interested in CL football at Villa, which is fair enough, but, surely, it was his effort and goals in Ten Hag's first season which did a lot to get us into the top 4. And, it was his drop off in form which went a long way to our finishing in 8th and out of the CL places.
If he wasn't able to motivate himself for his boyhood club, what makes him think he can motivate himself for Villa?

I will hate to see him come back to Old Trafford and play for Aston Villa if they buy him this summer. I've never liked Aston Villa at all, and of course that makes it more complex for me.
Not just Villa, a stable team?It's says he's interested in CL football at Villa, which is fair enough, but, surely, it was his effort and goals in Ten Hag's first season which did a lot to get us into the top 4.

It's Hester Manc, he regularly posts bollocks so this is nothing newAre these kind of posts a wind up? Rashford is making no effort, therefore he's not better than anyone. Waste of space.
Didn’t he play for Liverpool?I think he will struggle to motivate himself at any club, but who knows, maybe Emery can.
Didn’t he play for Liverpool?
Luckily Old Trafford don’t listen to you. When he was last on the bench, Stretford End gave him a huge ovation.Good riddance, deserves to be booed when he returns to Old Trafford aswell.
Rashford has more than played his part with the issues of toxicity, making our beloved club a circus.
Which is absolutely ridiculous, because players that take the piss out of the club don't deserve itLuckily Old Trafford don’t listen to you. When he was last on the bench, Stretford End gave him a huge ovation.
Weird post. I just write my opinions, analyzes and feelings like everyone else here, but I know that they are often different from the majority. If we all thought the same, what would we need a debat forum for?It's Hester Manc, he regularly posts bollocks so this is nothing new

Feel free to ignore my posts if you find them so terrible. No one is forcing you to read them.
That is not my intention. I have always been a big fan of Rashford and I believe that the situation could have been resolved when a new manager came in if the situation had been tackled in a different way.Are these kind of posts a wind up?
