We thought he had reached his footballing maturity during the 2022/2023 season when he delivered a solid performance (30 goals and 11 assists in 56 matches) but Marcus Rashford fell back into his ways. In difficulty last year with the Red Devils, the English striker had also missed Euro 2024 with England and his last cap dates back to March 23 against Brazil (1-0 defeat). This season, we could think of an improvement in the right-hander’s game, but his performances remain quite disappointing like Manchester United. Indeed, he currently has 4 goals and 3 assists in 18 matches, a record that is too disappointing and which he will try to improve with his new coach Ruben Amorim.
In the meantime, Marcus Rashford is suffering the wrath of the press and especially the former glories of Manchester United with Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Teddy Sheringham headlining. The three men are the most virulent with Marcus Rashford. His clan had also decided to defend him last September. “When someone else misses a pass, it’s not mentioned, but when it’s Marcus, it’s different. The criticism leveled at him is a real assault. It’s harassment. Fans believe what former players say, which only makes things worse“, declared one of his friends to Daily Mail.
Marcus Rashford expected to rebound
The situation has not changed and has even gotten worse. In addition to the sporting side, the behavior of the English star off the field is starting to raise questions. This summer, he had some problems with the law, particularly while driving. Convicted of speeding with his Rolls-Royce, he recently left for the United States during the international break and attended the NBA match between the New York Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets. A decision that was not to Gary Neville’s taste.
“I’m not very enthusiastic about Rashford and Casemiro going to the United States. I ask the question on the basis of professionalism: you are playing badly, the team is losing, you are 13th in the league and a new manager is coming, would you choose this trip as a break to recharge your batteries? This is not a recharge trip. It’s not good» he blurted out Telegraph. Currently preparing for Sunday’s match against Ipswich Town, Marcus Rashford intends to start from scratch with his new coach Ruben Amorim. Here too, the attacker was not discreet by indirectly criticizing Erik ten Hag. Under the spotlight, Marcus Rashford will have to quickly put an end to the criticism that continues to mount against him.
