Would you sell Rashford?

True but he's not being sold for all the wrong reasons.

Don't think he deserves binning because of a bad 18 months. Everyone in the squad, bar Ronaldo, has had a bad 18 months or even more.

When Rashford is on his game he's a very good player. Hopefully Ten Hag awakes the beast inside and gets him fired up again. He gets another season for me to turn things around which I think he will do.
 
I would give him next season under a new manager - I doubt we would get a big bid for him in the summer anyway.

I could live with giving him 6 months under ETH but what would ruin it for me is if the club gives him another contract, even on the same money until we see how those 6 months goes.

This, 100%. He has done well for us in the past but so did Eric Cantona and we are not offering him a new contract. Give him to Xmas under Ten Hag and see how he goes. If there is no improvement he is sold for any reasonable offer in January or summer 2023
 
Been stealing a living for three seasons. Can’t we just skip to the bit where he plays for Brighton. In truth was only ever an average player. The kick and chase ball that Ole played suited him more, he is terrible with the ball.
 
Every single photo and video I've seen of him he looks like he had a massive hangover. His whole demeanor screams that "I'd rather be somewhere else". You know you've got a problem, when Martial looks more lively than you do.

Not looking good for our Rashford lad
 
I read Rash wants a defined role, i.e. from the left. The gall of the man! If we do buy Anthony or a left footed wide player and I expect Sancho will be the right sided player, he needs to be grateful of playing anywhere if picked. I dont think he will be a starting 11 player, especially if Ronaldo stays and we do buy another striker.
 
Yes. However, we haven't maximised his value, and will struggle to get close to what we might have got two years ago, had we been a bit more realistic about his abilities.

We need to get smart and categorise our Academy products much better, much earlier. We all like a 'local lad done good' story, but many of us on here have said since early-on in Rashford's career that his base technique and decision-making were nowhere near the level required to develop into the player the club wanted/desired.

Sure, Rashford could have been a useful squad player for us but we talked him up well beyond that, to a level he was never, ever going to achieve. We had people making Ronaldo, Rooney and Mbappe comparisons, which were always absolutely ludicrous. I'd have sold for any offer i.r.o £80m or more, which I think we could have gotten, peak-hype

It's hard to know what to do with players like Rashford. Being a local lad is obviously going to give him more leeway rightly or wrongly. I think most think that Rashford is missing some fundamental qualities to stop him reaching the very highest level even when he was knocking in the goals. I'm not a fan of Rashford but 2 years ago for me it would of been madness to sell him. He looked like he could of kicked on so just for that alone it was worth persevering with him. Why sell a player before he could reach his possible potential? In hindsight it was the obvious choice to sell him but unfortunately hindsight is just that.
