Marcus Rashford must have the best agent EVER.
Apparently he’s “considering his future” after not getting enough game time.
Maybe he’s not getting enough game time because he’s not very good.

That sums up players like him perfectly. They feel entitled to play for Man Utd. They simply take it for granted, and have no feeling they need to work hard to earn it.

Although, to be fair, maybe he is simply considering his future as a footballer full stop, and fancies working full time for a charity or some sort of social media influencer.

Media narrative ?‍♂️

The media were all singing from the same sheet -

https://www.independent.co.uk/sport...estment-fsg-transfer-window-b1825919.html?amp

https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/spo...pool-fsg-redbird-transfer-budget-20298765.amp

There was never any talk of the money being used to fund transfers - it was reported by those “trusted journalists” that any money filtered down would be used to help the club plug any financial gaps from Covid plus helping to continue the stadium build up

There wasn’t a “$750mil” pot waiting to be spent on players

Surely the Liverpool Echo won't be the most unbiased source

Personally I think he gets a free pass because of his charity work.
He’s a typical UTD player.
They can sack as many managers as they want,but whilst they have players like him & Pogba they’ll not progress.

If he came to Leeds. We’d have a great front 3 of James, Bamford and Raphinha.

Unfortunately the charity work does not benefit Man United in winning games. If it wasn't for the charity work, would he not get a free pass? I guess that opinion some have is what makes him feel entitled?

The charity work was fantastic, but I see that as a separate issue. Also, if he or his agent are genuinely starting to whinge publicly now about their future, they are no better than Pogba. Rashford had been awful, he doesn't deserve to start. And, I'd like him to highlight the player should have their place taken away from them so he can play?
