United Thread - 2023/24

[Grassland Blue]

Any truth in the rumour that they are buying Trafford Park sidings because they could use the points?

He has to stay away from the UK for tax reasons for at least 3 more seasons.

Turns out you are wrong…
He hasn’t been paid a penny.

He’s playing badly, and looks disinterested, but he’s not a bad player. Multiple seasons with over 15 league goals from the wing, lots of stand out performances and goals, chips in with plenty of assists.

His form being so up and down is obviously because the club is always yo-yo-ing. The last 5 years they’ve gone 2nd, 6th, 3rd, 2nd, 6th lurching from “it’s our year” to “sack everyone now!”

Rashford is IMO the clearest incident of a very good player who just needs to leave United since Daley Blind and Zaha.

He’ll probably leave in 2/3 years and have a big late career renaissance while United fans scratch their heads.

He has scored over 15 league goals twice in 8 years as a regular. He has scored 10 and 11 in two other seasons. The other 4 seasons have been single figure returns. His goal to game ratio is over 3 and that's not anywhere near enough for a good premier league striker.

If he's now being classed as a winger, 39 assists from 259 games is pretty poor too.

He might be. Hence why he's going to Ajax

He's going to Ajax to be the hero in his head.

They are in the relegation mix and he will lead them to safety and be wanked over by the UK media and the waistcoat for doing so.

There’s definitely a very good player in him, but like most at the swamp, he’s not been coached since Van Gaal was there and so has stagnated as this inconsistent player that runs fast and kicks the ball as hard as he can at every opportunity.

Pep would have made him far better, as long as he was willing to track back, which he only does sporadically now.

They’re 5th now.

They’re 5th now.

He’s got them up to fifth already? Hahaha
Top player ;)

They’ve been on a decent run. It’ll probably end when the loudmouth joins them.
