After Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United, Marcus Rashford became the only player the team could rely on up front. At one time, United saw Marcus Rashford as their greatest potential superstar. However, in this year's Premier League, his performance disappointed the fans again. He has scored just eight goals in the Premier League so far, completely lost in attack. For a player of his type, the goalscoring efficiency is a bit sluggish. Many people said that his professional attitude on the field was problematic, he did not take the initiative to run on the field many times, and he also had big problems at both offensive and defensive ends. Of course, there are also media who believe that Rashford failed to score more goals for Manchester United in the game, is it injured?
In the FA Cup and Coventry City, United were arguably passive, with a three-goal lead before being held to a stubborn equaliser. There is even a risk of losing in extra-time, and if it weren't for the mentality of the Coventry City players in the penalty shoot-out, Manchester United would not have progressed to the final. In this game, Rushjerford's performance was equally disappointing. This has been a microcosm of who he has been this season, especially when he has faced a number of one-on-one chances this season, and Rashford has always been a little weak on his feet. Compared to his peak moments, Rashford is indeed more of a parallel commodity now.
Marcus Rashford earns the highest $400,000 a week in United's squad, but his performance has been detrimental to his salary level. In the aftermath of the game, a large number of United fans took to social media to express their displeasure. They believe that he should be the most important person for the team to trade. As for his future, the management within Manchester United is also a little wavering. Some executives also believe that they should trade him out as soon as possible. But the reality is also cruel, in terms of his state, even if he is really put in the transfer market, he will hardly receive a satisfactory offer, but if he continues to stay in the team, it will undoubtedly be a waste of Manchester United's time.
The reason is simple, they can't wait for Marcus Rashford to return to his former form, and this season's Premier League campaign is coming to an end. Whether Rashford's muddy form will affect his game next season is anyone's guess. For Marcus Rashford himself, he has been under too much pressure this season, especially mentally. The delay in finding an attacking feeling on the field has also made his prospects for continued play for Manchester United no longer optimistic by many. Some industry media outlets even believe that Marcus Rashford is likely to be swept away by the team this summer, unless he can find his best form for the rest of the season.
