Do you have the one of Fergie telling Utd supporters to piss off and support Chelsea? Ah ok. So you can take the piss out of Utd supporters just so long as you win things? Makes total sense.

Thankfully the vast majority of Utd fans are fully behind Rashford and are enjoying his renaissance this season. The fact he’s one of our own and has used his platform to help kids just adds it. Baffling that some people choose not to find the good in that. I've never known a fanbase that is constantly in on one of their own. If its not a player it's the manager, its fucking boring. The only people I have no issue going against are the owners. They actually deserve it. The only Utd fans I’ve ever encountered that didn’t like Rashford were on here. It’s truly bizarre. It’s like hating Bob Mortimer or Tom Hanks.

Baffling that some people choose not to find the good in that. What is baffling is the apparent need of some people to gloatingly crow anytime Rashford manages to do something decent. Not only that, but they also apparently need to make shitty remarks about anyone that doesn't subscribe to the Rashford fanclub.

Then why did this place shit on Lingard throughout the last 2 years of his time here? Man literally won us the FA Cup 🤣

Man literally won us the FA Cup 🤣 I presume there’s some sort sliding scale based on trophy importance. That all I’ve got.

It's a social media thing aswell. You come off the internet and some of the opinions you hear online you never hear in the real world. It's baffling. I can understand criticism where its warranted but the lad has seemingly turned a long and frustrating corner and for the better. He deserves nothing but praise for that. Just hope it continues now.

That all I’ve got. One pot seven years ago vs more trophies than every other manager in our history combined. Sure, keep being so dismissive.

You chose the Tories over a homegrown Utd player and you want to talk to me about glibness?

You chose the Tory party over a homegrown Utd player and you want to talk to me about glibness? Genuinely don't know why you keep bringing this back to the politics. I find Rashford's meddling in politics annoying but it's one of the lesser reasons I find him dislikeable.

Anyway, leaving all the Rashford stuff behind us- I thought AWB had another good game last night and not just defensively. The position is clearly Dalot’s but he might be able to provide cover and not be horrible.

I find Rashford's meddling in politics annoying but it's one of the lesser reasons I find him dislikeable. That incident with the supporters was just a rush of blood during a difficult time for him, no one is perfect and we can't expect them to be. I tend to agree somewhat with your opinions on his lack of trophies though. Rashford was pretty rubbish for at least 12 months and it makese sense to reserve judgement until he has proven himself on the field for an equal amount of time but that's how I feel about most of our players. Top class players win trophies, not always the major ones but they normally win something. Bryan Robson being a typical example.

There are 11 players and he’s just one of them. He can only do his job, which he is at the moment.
