Looks like Rashford's omission from the matchday squad was very much by choice. 

I hear @nonotnowjim is a fan. Thoughts?

 

United would countenance a cut-price offer for Rashford. A move in January would be ideal, though his salary of £365,000 a week means only a few clubs could afford him.

No Thanks.

Certainly not for that weekly salary, just when we're in the process of lowering our wages bill.

If Arsenal still can't score from open play to save their life and are 7-9 points away from the 1st place by mid January, coupled with their toxic fanbase pressure to drop Havertz and sign a center forward, I can see them smash that panic button. Other than that, what club in their right mind would sign Rashford? His attitude stinks.

At least Sancho is younger, more talented and a Chelsea fan, he's on a mission to prove all his doubters wrong and has his best years ahead of him. With Rashford, I think United won't make the same mistake of letting him go to a rival for peanuts and he does not look like the type of guy that would take a big wage cut to leave.

No-one in their right mind would pay the moody f**ker anywhere near £365k a week, so hopefully that means United are stuck with him.

Or he will take a massive pay drop, which will just make him even more moody!!

To be fair, I personally would prefer to hang on to that salary myself  

In the PL, Arsenal is not a bad call BTW. Assuming he still has some ambition, which European club with a decent competition still pays that kind of money anymore? 

Anyway, as long as it's not us.

Just not a big fan of him at all tbh, he hasn't really improved since he was 19/20, he's still the same player. 

Like everyone else said, I think he's got a piss poor attitude, and I know United fans are dying to see him move on. 

No. One of my least liked footballers around. Every game he is sulking, doesn't put the effort in and has an insane pr team that protects him and deflects any blame. He's one of the most toxic players in the game right now.

Wouldn’t go near Rashfood with a barge pole. If it wasn’t for the fact Utd have been in turmoil for a decade he’d of never stood a chance in the first team and would’ve had a Dan James esque career.

Rash move.  Regardless of his moodiness and his high salary he is simply not a player we need.  He is the same age as Nkunku - 27 - and a similar type of player. Although in all honesty Nkunku is a much better player.

I cannot see Arsenal interested in him - maybe the Jawdees would go for him?  I'd say maybe Newcastle or abroad for Rashford and he would have to take a salary cut. And I don't really care. But Chelsea certainly do not need/want him.

Didn't make the big step, he's not kid anymore.

Hell no. Moody af, so much PR nonsense and exactly the kind of wing-striker we don't need.

Perfect player for like Aston Villa or Tottenham

He's 27 and hasn't improved since he was 21, and that's without taking his astronomical wages into consideration

No wonder Boehly wants to buy the Telegraph. So he can dismiss rubbish like this. 

No no no. Please no!

Why would anyone with aspirations above 12th place in the PL want him?

They wouldn't.

His next move is Grimsby Town not us.

Can we all agree Plokoon gets a one-week ban minimum for even suggesting this? 😛

This rumour would have scared the sh*t out of me, had it come circa 2022 😅 I bet Tuchel and Boehly would have been all over this, dear god. 

With his wages, which he won’t drop, I really can’t think of any club that would take him, United are really kidding themselves here, and of course, he’s not going to sanction a Saudi deal. The only time a move could have happened is when PSG were interested, but that ship has sailed and they’re run differently now. 

Seems like an Arsenal signing to me. 

Hmm, @nonotnowjimwhat do you think? Reckon he should replace Jacko and be our main striker?

Don't know what gives you that idea - I have always rated Nicolas Jackson.
