Shearer tells Rashford he's not using his potential after going to club.

In a recent development, Alan Shearer has issued a stern warning to Marcus Rashford, claiming that he is not making the most of his natural talent and will later regret it if he does not improve his disciplinary issues. Shearer's comments come after the Manchester United player was absent from the FA Cup fourth-round match against Newport County due to illness.

Reports state that Rashford was not present during Friday's training session, citing sickness as the reason. However, the England international was seen at a nightclub in Belfast on Thursday evening. When asked about his absence before the game, manager Erik ten Hag responded by saying that it was an "internal matter" and he would handle it accordingly.

This is not the first time Rashford has faced disciplinary action from Ten Hag. Last season, he was benched for a match against Wolves after oversleeping and missing a team meeting. However, Rashford redeemed himself by scoring the winning goal in that match and went on to have a successful season, scoring 30 goals. But this season has been a different story, with only four goals to his name so far.

Shearer, a legend in the Premier League, has urged the 26-year-old to get his act together and not waste his talent. He believes that something is not right, either in his personal life or his relationship with the club. Shearer emphasizes the importance of strong management and someone to guide Rashford, as he will regret his actions later in his career if he continues down this path.

Micah Richards, also a pundit and former Manchester City player, echoes Shearer's sentiments. Richards believes that Rashford needs to understand that as a public figure, all his actions will be scrutinized. He adds that it is not acceptable for Rashford to cause disruptions before a game, especially when the team needs to focus.

It is evident that there are issues within the Manchester United squad since Ten Hag took over as manager. Rashford's behavior is just one example of this. It is crucial that these problems are addressed and resolved as soon as possible. Fans are disappointed that instead of talking about the game, the focus is now on Rashford's absence and behavior. It is time for the team to come together and show their professionalism on and off the pitch.
