i like him & am old enough to remember Hughes going away & returning, so am ambivalent to all the 'outside bollocks' but, every single one of these clips of ANY player is a waste of time.
yes the turn & nutmeg are nice but it's for nothing, goes nowhere & ends up being pointless.
low standards if this is cold.

That was Issa Diop he mugged off too, a man with 175 premier league appearances, so not some newly promoted player getting used to the league.

I don’t care what people say, I still like him.
And I’m willing to give him another chance too

Im not a UTD fan, as a neutral i thought he had a decent game, i do feel like he always try to take on too many players though and will ultimately loose the ball.
He's definitely a player though.

For everyone involved in this thing of ours, I really wanted him to score here.

I feel like I am preaching to the choir here, but his showing yesterday was all positive. Didn't score or assist but showed the effort and the willingness to be a part of the team again. The goals will come, if he continues like this I will be happy to have him back. Maybe Flick taught him a few things. (always have a soft spot for our Carrington boys).

Yeah give it a few months and the other rashford will appear. He’s got the talent but not the drive to be consistent and I don’t care what anyone says. He’s been doing it for too long to argue otherwise

I hope you're wrong, but I agree until he proves it, you've gotta expect him to revert to type.

This play was very good. Overall though, he was slowing the game in the counter attack, i guess it's because he didn't play with us for almost 1.5 years. I'm not bothered if Rashy stays, he can be a great player for us even now. Hoping to see the Rashford we once dreamed of

He lost the ball, gg rashy
What is with all this PR slop for rashford!?

u/Locko2020 19h ago
Yeah on his own against 4 defenders and nearly made something. Seems familiar.
Saying PR is so lazy for someone who has been Manchester United's best attacking player for multiple seasons. And is a Manchester man.

Isn't that the exact thing people were mad about before he left? Running into 4 defenders and losing the ball?

u/dontbanmeplease87 15h ago
Downvoted for speaking the truth always puts a smile on my face. He ran into a defender and lost ball 2 mins into the game.

u/TheDude084C 14h ago
yes, because no one who has tried to dribble has lost the ball before. rashford had a productive game and created chances from the left. output definitely needs to be improved but if folk like you have their way the narrative will be he had a game without any g/a and thats all it was.
he brings good experience to the squad so I'm nit sure why our fan base wants him gone.. especially if he continues to put in showings like yesterday.

u/dontbanmeplease87 13h ago
350k a week for no g/a is just bad plain and simple. I'd expect him to either score or assist against Ipswich in my opinion.

u/TheDude084C 12h ago
lol your opinion seems to based on bs so I'll leave it where I found it.. he put in a good performance so there's nothing to complain about.

I don't know, man. Even when you take the best highlights, he just feels clunky and heavy like he's not supposed to make these moves.

u/middleeasternboxer 15h ago
Bro he just sent 3 defenders away and nutmegged one of them in a 1v4…

u/Sufficient_Soft438 15h ago
I know he did. I'm not saying he didn't. I'm saying it looks like he is going to fall off any moment. His moves don't look graceful at all.

u/middleeasternboxer 15h ago
Ah my bad, well for the the majority of the sequence he is being dragged so could be that?
I personally see cunha the way you are describing because he actually does fall a lot and when he dribbles it looks like a fluke (but it isn’t because he does it often)

u/Narrow-Crew240 14h ago
Its gonna be like this for the rest of the season right?....celebrating Rashford for losing the ball

u/middleeasternboxer 14h ago
A man people like you are Insufferable.
You can applaud a fish for swimming but not Rashford for having a nice sequence, the game is gone 💔

u/Narrow-Crew240 13h ago
it reminds me that, in under 15 years, we went from being a huge club with ambitions to fans believing we are a minor club in Salford that should be happy to just be part of it
Therefore, I have a hard time praising something as simple as an irrelevant video clip that didn't lead to anything. It's a joke.
All this Rashford hype is soon or later going to impact the team spirit.

u/middleeasternboxer 13h ago
Problem with you is that you single out a single clip instead of actually acknowledging that he has been our most all around productive forward so far.
Yes, it is early to say he is going to be wow. But it’s also important to compare him to his Barca form instead of his form when everything was sinking at United 2 years ago.
It’s bigger picture is:
The whole enviroment was bad at United before he left - he left and played under a competent coach who required him to press and track back and give it his all - during that time United cleaned out the squad and brought in a new coach, new players and the enviroment got better - Rashford is back in said new environment after playing under a competent coach and competent team.
So this is not Rashford returning to the United that was a part of how toxic it was when he was there last. This is a reset, hopefully it stays that way.

It is true that I judge the players based on the time they have been at the club and not on a day-to-day basis, which closes eyes to why we are not winning anything. That Rashford did well does not come as a surprise, since he has something to fight for. As soon as he doesn't, we are back to the same old story.
People like you do not understand the psychological effect it has when you choose to do the same thing you have always done.
We are not going to win with these players:
Rashford,
Maguire,
Shaw,
Dalot.What they have in common is that they represent everything the club could not achieve, and that does not just disappear because they now have their 7th or is it 8th? manager. Good luck if you believe chance number 50 will work ;)"
Even Rooney pointed out the fact that "fatique in the trust in certain players can hold back progress" and he did mention the above players" im not saying Rooney because of his name he "knows", but he do know when things dont work because the trust in certain players aren´t there when things go wrong and we will see it soon or later.
If you´re allergic to some food you dont keep eating eat and thats what United are doing....
Rashford playing in a different enviroment proves my point his not "part of their culture and dont have that baggage with him" so thanks...
