European expert 😂😂😂😂
His goal tonight is amazing
Weren’t the rag papers saying the opposite 😂😂😂
Now seems a good time to copy and paste my comment from July that featured a prediction about how Rashford would do at Barca:
Rashford will be surrounded by a lot of top players at Barca and, unlike United, Barcelona go into almost every game they play as the favourites, as they're clearly better than almost every one of their opponents on paper.
With that in mind, I think Rashford will do pretty well at a level more suited to him and I'm quite hopeful he'll never come back to United!
I was amused to hear somebody say United should remember the good times. What good times? 🙂
How often has Rashford looked like a world-class player and how often has he been in great form for a number of games in a row in the decade or so since he made his debut for United?
People say he was great in 22-23 but that just isn't true! Yes, his goal tally at the end of that season looked good but in terms of his performances, he certainly didn't have a brilliant season.
He was poor in all but a couple of games before The World Cup, then played well for most of the next two months(mostly in cup games) and then went back to being poor again at the end of February '23 and basically hasn't had a decent game for United since!
I've just had a quick look back at some of my old comments, so I can reiterate the fact that Rashford being poor for United isn't something that's only happened over the past year or two.
This is from 2019 and it's in reply to some journalists saying Rashford is England's future number 9:
"These brown-nosing journalists are just so out of touch with the fans and with reality." "All fans will tell you that Rashford has been poor for at least two years and shouldn't be anywhere near the England team."
"Football writers still go on about Rashford being a top player who's far too good for United but if he'd come through the ranks at Newcastle and had played like he has since 2017 started whilst at that club, he definitely wouldn't be playing for England now and he probably would've been sold to a Championship side in the summer!"
"I've literally never heard a journalist say a bad word about Rashford." "What exactly do they see when everybody else sees his terrible shots, terrible control, terrible passes, terrible free-kicks etc?"
This is also from 2019 and it's a comment on a video where guests on Sky are asked if Rashford is good enough for United:
"It's ridiculous that people are even asking that question after the way he's played over the past couple of years!" "He's basically a League One player with pace!"
I added this in 2021:
"There was me thinking he'd been bad between late 2017 and late 2019!" "He's been absolutely awful in the two years since I wrote my last comment on here!"
"So he's been mostly terrible for a good four years now but, no doubt, the media will still keep saying he's a world-class superstar!"
Finally, this is from the start of 2021 and it's a comment I left on a video called "Marcus Rashford reflects on his sensational five-years since 'bursting onto the scene'"
"Let's be honest, it's been diminishing returns every year since he burst onto the scene as a youngster who looked like he could be a great player in the future."
"He was pretty good in his first year in football, average in his second year, below average in his third, poor in his fourth and, in the main, he has been absolutely terrible since last June!" "I really can't see him ever becoming the great player people thought he could become."
Im pretty sure all pundits on talksport were laughing at Rashford when he came out in the summer and said he only wants Barca, as were plenty of fans, nobody is laughing now that he is their best player. Good on Rashford he has gone there and proved himself to be the world class player that a lot of utd fans saw a couple of seasons ago. I hope he gets his move there now made permanent good for him and good for Utd.
He always shines when it’s contract time. As soon as he signs he’ll ghost
Still not world class like many have made him out to be..
And he is playing , for the most part against lower quality opponents…
Rashford has mugged off the English media after they tried to mugg him off
Simon Jordan 🤡
Not bad for the so-called problem. 😅😅
Great news for Rash, happy for him 🙂
United will need to pay Rashford the difference on his contract with Barcelona, won't they?
Didn't people from his own country say his a flop?
It’s very early to have the conclusion, there so many games to come and he needs to keep improving to get this move permanently
His got a contract with United until 6/2028. So use him. This Sesko isn’t doing much. You can’t tell me Rashford wouldn’t score more goals than Sesko and Cunha. He’s the best player United have to be honest. Sort out the personal beef and get him playing for United.
Marcus played his role in his demise at Utd. However, the strength in that is that he is also playing his role in developing his role now for Barca! 👌🏼
im more happy for rashford because the media did what they could to destroy the man… he wasn't amazing inlast 2 years at united but neither was anyone.. i knew there was something wrong when he wasn't playing and they dug dug dug and pushed to destroy him.. and then in the summer laughed at fact that he wanted to go to barcelona and called him underserving and said he's warm the bench.. very interesting turn of events..and people forget him and acesnsio were villa's best players last year
But….but….but…. Rashford does not deserve the chance to play for Barcelona. TALKSPORT!!
Rashford is now just an average player. Anthony has performed better in spain . It just shows again how high the level is in the prem. Stop hyping up prem league rejects the list keeps growing.
Bring talksport rugby back
Im very happy for him. But lets not forget he's only playing well now because he wants to. Nothing was stopping him putting in this level of effort at united. He picks and chooses when to deliver.
They can have him and then when there's no world cup to try and get to or a contract already signed you will see his attitude come back and the slacking return.
One can only hope, I for one never want to see him back at Utd.
Are we watching the same football?? You remove g/a from Rashford and he is mid. Barca can't sign him. Any true Barca fan knows that we miss raphinha or a proper 11
Best show on Talksport❤
Rashford has got Simon punching in the air in frustration 😂😂😂 🤡
Once signed, he’ll turn to 💩.
Very average player doing very average for Barca!!! Nothings changed from his time at united,wish him all the best and hope he signs for them
Hope Barca sign him.. save us the hassle of giving him a new contract off the back of a couple of goals then downing tools for next 3 years!!!
As usual, the English got it wrong, every world football player would take a pay cut to play for FC Barcelona..
