CurrentReport Blog Manchester United’s star forward, Marcus Rashford, has recently spoken out against the criticism he’s faced throughout the current season, labeling it as “abuse.” Despite his significant contributions in the past, Rashford’s performance this season has drawn scrutiny, with only eight goals in 40 appearances.
The 26-year-old has found himself under fire from both fans and pundits alike, prompting him to address the issue directly. Responding to a post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), which described the treatment he’s received as “absolutely disgusting” and “cruel,” Rashford expressed his frustration, stating, “It is abuse and has been for months. Enough is enough.”
Last season, Rashford showcased his prowess by netting an impressive 30 goals across all competitions. However, this season has seen a decline in his form, leading to his relegation to the bench by manager Erik ten Hag for two matches following a subpar performance in United’s 1-0 defeat against Newcastle in December. Additionally, Rashford has faced criticism regarding his off-field behavior from the Dutch manager.
