Manchester United demon Marcus Rashford is the second most abused athlete in the world's sports world, and a recent survey shows that the most scolded is the NBA Los Angeles Lakers' "little emperor" LeBron James, followed by Rashford.
The 24-year-old Rashford, who was supposed to be an inspirational brother in football, was awarded the Queen's Order of Zoe during the COVID-19 pandemic by working hard to help British children get free food. However, due to his sluggish performance on the pitch and the poor technical and tactical awareness, more and more people mocked and even maliciously attacked his performance, thus creating a vicious circle.
It was thought that Marcus Rashford should focus on playing, but while he excelled in his charity work off the pitch, he became increasingly absent from the game. Last year's European Championship final was replaced by a penalty, but Master La took the lead in giving it away, which eventually led to England's failure to win the championship. After the game, he was insulted by racial discrimination.
Pickwise's data analysis shows that Rashford has been scolded 32,328 times in tweets sent to elite athletes in the fields of American football, basketball, soccer, tennis, golf and ice hockey in the past year. That said, In 12 months, Rashford has been scolded more than 30,000 times!
Only basketball superstar James has been insulted, and the number of insults last year reached a staggering 122,568. NFL legendary quarterback Tom Brady, who recently watched Manchester United games, ranked behind Rashford with 28,151 abuses aimed at him.
Marcus Rashford's United team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo was 8th with 11,757 swearls, while Pogba was 20th with 7,349 swearls. Durant, Lillard, Curry and other well-known sports athletes have also been on the list. However, Rashford is one of the exceptions, other players, including Cristiano Ronaldo, usually belong to the situation of "Wood Show in the Forest Wind Must Destroy", while the Manchester United Demon Star is scolded for his poor performance.
Due to the continuous downturn of the past year or so, Marcus Rashford has lost the main position of Manchester United and even begun to consider transfers, and teams such as Barca, Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool are rumored to be interested in it. And Manchester United interim manager Lonnick has also publicly stated that if this summer Master pulls the master to leave, there is no problem.
However, as an English homegrown player, Marcus Rashford still has the strong support of the British media. Britain's Daily Mail even intimidated Manchester United, saying that if it sold the British Demon Star, it would be the biggest mistake in 10 years.
Of course, the Daily Mail's Oliver Holt has little evidence to support his point of view, he just thinks that Manchester United should not sell Rashford. A similar view, the British media has been saying for years, as they have threatened that if Mourinho sells Martial, the French demon king will become the Red Devil's version of De Bruyne or Salah.
The newspaper said that although Marcus Rashford was in a slump, he was only 24 years old and was a "precious talent" who made 297 appearances for United and scored 93 goals. He is the youngest scorer in the Manchester Derby and the third youngest Manchester United player to score 50 Premier League goals, with only Norman Whiteside, George Best and Ryan Giggs, making 250 appearances for United at a young age. He also played for Manchester United with injuries to his shoulders and feet.
Holt insisted: "Rashford is a gem player who is going through a downturn, but he has enough achievements to prove his stability. Those who insulted him should apologize, not Rashford. He is a victim of United's current poor condition and if United marginalize Rashford or even sell him, it will be one of the biggest mistakes of 10 years!"
Of course, the British media who collected money to defend Marcus Rashford would not mention that he enjoyed a high salary of £200,000 and was tasked with playing well for Manchester United. And he didn't do his job well, and if he still wants the fans to cheer him up, then the life of the Manchester United players is obviously too easy and happy. How should United handle Marcus Rashford? Everyone has their own opinion.
