Rashford exit gathering pace now in various media outlets. Sadly, I do think it's time for him to explore new opportunities. PSG feels an obvious fit, as I can't see him moving to another Premier League club.
He just seems to have fallen out of love with the game and the club, and it's time for him to rekindle that joy if can elsewhere.

Over the moon. Never rated him and his attitude is awful
Won’t be easy to shift him in those ridiculous wages.

Could definitely see a Sancho-style loan for the rest of the season somewhere or other. Need him to get some form and put himself in the window for a permanent summer move.

Sad I was there when he scored 2 on EPL debut against Arsenal. I remember him scoring against City in an Irish pub in Fueteventura and leaving Demichelis for dead.
Unfortunately over the last few seasons it’s not worked out for him.
Wish him the best.

Can see Garnacho leaving also.

I don’t understand why people think PSG will buy him. They bought Barcola two summers ago for a big fee. It seems like people think that PSG are trying to sign any big name player, even ones they don’t need.
Personally I think that it will be very difficult to sell Rashford. The best I could see happening is a loan where United continue to pay a significant amount of his wages.

Wont be too sorry for either…talent maybe but mentality is a massive issue for both. We all knew something like this needed to happen and if it takes some so called fans too then so be it. Ragnick said this club needed open heart surgery, looks like now’s the time.

Depends on the fee United want, the lower that is the more prepared clubs will be to up the wages.
Fact is he isn't delivering what he costs so any fee and the wages cleared is going to leave us better off.

Utd Rd. I also was there when he scored that brace against Arsenal. A quick trip back from the US. I took my wife who had become an Arsenal supporter. We had very good seats on the half way line. She found the intensity, the close spacing, and the aggressive nature of the men around her quite overbearing. I had also taken her to see us play at the Emirates in 2012 when we won 2-1 with Danny Welbeck scoring the winner. Somehow that ground didn't seem anywhere near as intense. Anyway, the experience put her off being a football supporter. She decided that investing all that emotional energy wasn't worth it. Sometimes I wish I could do the same, but then she doesn't have 60+ years. of it behind her.
We'll be very lucky to get a good deal for him given how much he's paid. He's simply not adapted to the game as it's evolved and it's hard to see him ever having the capacity or the will to do so. The worst thing is I think he knows it which, if so, has to be depressing him. He is after all a United lad through and through.

I'd take a straight swap for Isak.
18 Dec 2024 07:16:40
In your dreams Bobbie. I’d take a straight swap for Homer Simpson!
Other than Chelsea/ Arsenal think it most likely to be a Spanish or Italian club loan.

Sad to see. Local lad came good, exploded into the scene, great pace and a good finisher. Sadly his time has come. Thought he might turn the corner under Amorim, but if you’re heads gone it’s gone.

Crystal palace his level. Reminds me of zaha, turns up when he likes and does a bit here and there but not consistent.
18 Dec 2024 11:53:06
Just been listening to Jordan on talksport and while I think he’s a bit of a snide sometimes I couldn’t help but agree with what he said - Rashford has basically come and said he wants to leave and Amorim has said he’s still got a part to play etc etc - a complete opposite of his message dropping him from the team. Make your mind up…
Obviously he holds value so the club or manager can’t say anything too bad but this just all needs to stop and stop being blown out of proportion like everything Utd.
He’s been a good ambassador not only for the club but for himself and helped lots of families which should never be forgotten but his day job - football he just isn’t up to the standard of an elite footballer.
He’s 27? He’s had plenty of time to fulfill potential and instead he’s looking like another Theo Walcott that gets to drag the potential term around his whole career.
If Garnacho feels the same I think he can also go.
While I’m on my rant I’d also like Amorim to get full say on that squad because there’s plenty need to go.
Anthony, Rashford, Casemiro, Dalot, Shaw, lindlof, Maguire, spring straight to mind.

“ I couldn’t help but agree with what he said - Rashford has basically come and said he wants to leave and Amorim has said he’s still got a part to play etc etc - a complete opposite of his message dropping him from the team. Make your mind up…”
I don’t see how what Ruben said is contradictory.
Rashford and Garnacho were dropped for one game because they didn’t train to the standards expected by the manager.
Rashford then threw his toys out of the pram, by announcing to the world that he’s prepared to leave the club.
Ruben said that he wants to keep Rashford at the club, and that he wants to help him recapture his best form.
Unless you think that the manager should never drop certain players from the squad, regardless of how much effort they put into training, then Ruben has been consistent.
18 Dec 2024 15:56:35
I think he should drop every player that doesn’t train to standards. It’s gone in too long players getting free passes and he’s top of the list.
18 Dec 2024 16:33:05
Mental all this stuff about a lad who has played well at times and not at others. Good human being, one man club and G/ A over his career is far better than anything theo bloody Walcott did.
We always want more and more from him when I'm not sure he has more and that's okay. I would love for him to stay but I think he needs to leave and get out this country.
The drivel being written and that has been written over a sustained period of time is crazy IMO.
Best of luck Marcus in whatever you choose to do. But if he gets his head down and scores a few goals, this will be forgotten about.
19 Dec 2024 16:49:46
He’s a spoilt child.
Why drop an interview about how you want to leave after the camp has some positivity beating Man City? It’s selfish and has made the last week all about him when we were gaining momentum.

Nice story Shawthing. some parallels with me.
I took my wife, we where stood in the Stretford End Upper all match. She kept asking when we sit down ?
She didn’t come to the Irish bar…
Surprised she came tbf as her previous match was Moyes Fulham….
