Rashford has just scored against City and that's what's concerning you?!

Cool as a mofo

The look of joy on his face, delighted for him and him a local lad and all!

Stop moving the goalposts, Im not disputing that at all, you implied that when they were 2-0 up that it was because of him, but then when the throw it away, its because he has "crap" players.

Its actually because of a crap player, one in particular who makes everyone else around him infi worse. Tho Klopp has to shoulder a huge portion of the blame for bringing him on. Huge error.

As for Rashford being Macheda pt2. No chance. Rashford has pace and a really good technique. Macheda was just the right guy in the right place a couple of times. Rashford is at worst going to be a Wellbeck level player and at best he'll be a Adebayor when playing for a contract.

Embarrassing from Augero feigning injury and then bouncing up.

Bunch of men ganging up on a kid. Nice one.

That's a pen.

I didn't mean a carbon copy as a player, our youth system has churned out a lot of fast, technical players for a long while. They don't always make it. Rashford though, seems to be looking better and better every time. Obviously this is an early statement to make, but he seems to be actively learning from his time in the pitch and those around him. That's one of, if not the, best thing to see in a player in their first season or so.



If we had got away with that penalty shout, we'd be hearing about it until the end if the season.

how did the ref bottle that?! 100% peno clear as day

J. Marston

Michael Oliver is the dodgiest ref in England.

Like, genuinely dodgy.

adox

City are fierce moaney. Ref is awful.

DeMachelis looks an accident waiting to happen.

And the only ones coming to his aid are the other kids and eventually Rojo. Such a soft team.

Then the City players have the cheek to accuse rashford of diving then

Thats because half our team is kids. Lingard and Martial were closest to him.

Oh I know that, what i mean is that there's no way he won't make it. He's legit good. Which pains me to say. I don't think he'll be world class but you don't need him to be. Martial will be that... Rashford will likely be an international regular and super effective for you lot.

I don't understand the whole "how dare DeMichelis pick on a kid" thing. If Rashford is good enough then he's old enough to handle it and it's part of football.

Glad I'm not the only one who thought "Where the fúck are our lads?" when Rashford was getting surrounded. Lingard, Martial and Rojo came in, Carrick stood with the hands on the hips a few yards away.

Yep, he's playing a senior sport so I don't fault the City players, just the tardiness of our lads in giving Rashford some support.

He looks well able to handle it lol he didn't back down at all. It was just funny to see the men ganging all round the kid and thats exactly what it was it dont matter if we he was a messi he is still a kid.

have to say that was a brilliant first half. we actually look a threat going forward

I didn't say anything about how dare they and I didn't say anything about DeMichelis. I said a bunch of men as in two city players came over and pushed him around. And I found it funny more then shocking.

IMO what annoyed me was the city players looked to accuse him of diving when it was absolutely clumsy from dimicales.
Ref is a disgrace.
To note: I didn't imply anything about players ganging up on him. Hes man enough and he stood up for himself so fair play

PhlegmyMoses

Rashford really reminds me of Andy Cole. Good pace, great feet and link up play and cool finishing. How we have missed a player like that.

We've all gone through heaps of young players who were hyped to make it from Luke Chadwick to Frasier Campbell to Cleverley to Macheda to Januzaj etc, but Rashford is the first I have seen in years that I've thought has the raw attributes to be more than a flash in the pan.

But why should that stop them from ganging up on him? People seem offended that City players would even look sideways at him!

Cantona's Collars

The 2 Scousers on Sky say Penalty to United,Hargreaves says "No" and Owen says 50/50.

Hargreaves really is bitter when it comes to United.

I like Lingard as a third midfield player in a game like this. Its more the position he was supposed to play.

During the week was different as United should be chasing down goals. That is when you want someone like Mata in there.

Im not offended I found it amusing. As I said looks well able for it but it is still funny to see two older men going after him like that I don't see why it matters because he is good or not or in what context it was still the same two grown Men were ruffled by a kid.

I like him there too the problem is that mata is not so good out on the wing.

I bloody hope so!

David Jones about ten years ago did teach me to always temper my expectations, mind.

Next season I want to see us play Rashford up front, Martial on one wing, Mata behind the striker, and Rooney in China. Or just somewhere very, very far away.

It's taken two teenagers, but he's finally been shown up for what he really is, and I couldn't be happier.

They haven't shown anything. Rooney was in very good form until he got injured when the team started attacking at the turn of the year. It's nice to see the kids there but rooney aint done yet.

Moving Darmian about so much can't be any good for him.

Back to only one of the back four playing in their natural position.
City taken control of the game.
