It seems that Marcus Rashford has finally broken his dry spell and scored his first goal of the season. However, amidst this achievement, there are reports that the Manchester United star has been feeling unfairly targeted and bullied by pundits. Joe Cole, a former footballer, has given some advice to Rashford, urging him to work on his body language in order to silence his critics.
After a less than stellar performance in the 2023/24 season, Rashford was struggling to find his form in the new season. In fact, he had not even managed to take a single shot in the first three games. This led to a barrage of criticism from pundits, including Alan Shearer and Gary Neville, as well as fans who expressed their frustration by jeering the manager when he didn't substitute Rashford during a home loss to Liverpool. However, the 26-year-old managed to bounce back and prove his critics wrong by scoring a brilliant goal in United's 3-0 win against Southampton.
But behind the scenes, there were reports that Rashford was feeling overwhelmed and frustrated by the constant scrutiny and criticism from pundits, especially those who were former United players. In an interview after the Southampton match, former footballer Peter Crouch praised Rashford for his performance and sympathized with him for the amount of pressure he was under. Similarly, Joe Cole, who was also a pundit on the show, was impressed by Rashford's goal but suggested that he could do more to change the perception of his critics.
Cole believes that Rashford's body language plays a crucial role in how he is perceived by the public. He advises him to maintain a positive attitude, even during difficult times, and not give his critics any ammunition to attack him. As a former player himself, Cole understands the pressure that comes with playing for a big club like Manchester United and believes that Rashford's body language can make a big difference in how he is perceived by the public.
Rashford's teammate Andre Onana, who saved a penalty during the Southampton match, also had some words of encouragement for him. He believes that Rashford's character will be tested, but it's important for him to keep fighting and not let the criticism get to him. Onana also acknowledges that playing for a huge club like Manchester United comes with its own set of challenges and expectations, but it's important to stay strong and stand together as a team.
Despite the criticism and pressure, Rashford remains determined to prove himself and make a positive impact for his team. And with his first goal of the season under his belt, he is ready to continue working hard and achieving success for Manchester United.
