Marcus Rashford has been facing a difficult time over the past year. Despite a stellar first season under Erik ten Hag, where he scored an impressive 30 goals, his form has taken a dip. This has been accompanied by off-pitch incidents that have caused concern for the player and his fans. And to make matters worse, some former Manchester United stars have been publicly criticizing him.
According to a source close to Marcus, he feels that this criticism is like bullying. It seems that the negative comments from these ex-players have been affecting him and he sees them as unfair. He believes that when others make mistakes on the pitch, it doesn't get the same level of attention as when he does. It's a difficult situation for him to be in, especially when he is trying his best for his team.
Unfortunately, things haven't gone according to plan for Rashford this season. Manchester United has already lost two of their first three games and he hasn't been able to score a single goal. This has only added to the criticism he has been facing. Even his manager, Ten Hag, has faced backlash for not substituting Rashford during their recent loss to Liverpool.
The criticism has been widespread, with former United legends like Gary Neville and Alan Shearer voicing their disappointment in Rashford's performance. However, Ten Hag has repeatedly defended his player and called out the critics for their "stupid analysis." Despite all this, Rashford remains determined to prove his worth and contribute to the team's success.
It's also worth noting that while Rashford hasn't scored yet this season, he has created three big chances for his teammates. This shows that he is still playing an important role in the team, even if it doesn't show up on the scoresheet. However, there have been calls for him to be dropped from the starting lineup for their upcoming game against Southampton.
Despite the pressure and criticism, there are still those who believe in Rashford and want to see him succeed. And with Rasmus Hojlund injured, Ten Hag may choose to keep faith in the young forward. As a club, Manchester United needs to support their players, especially during difficult times. And for Rashford, he will continue to give his best on the pitch, despite the negativity surrounding him.
