The problem is most of his goals come on the counter-attack and he's poor against a low block. Also, praising Rashford for his goalscoring is a dangerous game as he's a moments player and generally hides his total anonymity with one moment in a game.

Barca tend to play against low blocks so he's the very last player you need. You have been burned with these sorts of players before.

Also, you are taking an outlier of a season (22-23) where he actually scored in bursts in the league over 10 games (10 league goals in 10 games and 7 in total either side) and padded his stats with EL and Carabao Cuo goals.

This guy has banana skin written all over him. He's one of the most overrated players I have ever seen and is really a mid-table player with the PR of a top player. Never has so much been written about such a mediocre player. Barca have enough financial problems without getting involved with his insane salary and lack of ability.

Many of his goals in that comp did not come in the counter.
Look at the wonder goal at the Emirates that he created all by himself against a set defence

Then, he is great technically. What are you talking about :lol:

Man, you have a thing with UTD and their players/coaches...
I get it, but it clouds your judgment a lot

How does it 'cloud my judgement' when I have been right every step of the way about United in the last 10 years? If they were good I would say so, like I did in ferguson's day.

There's no ulterior motive - when I rate their players I say so, when I don't I do. I rate a few of their players but it's hardly my fault they've built a wank squad and have failed relentlessly. Do you want me to pretend they have done well?

In fact, forget it - sick of your know-it-all attitude towards other posters and you have really pissed me off saying my judgement is clouded because I hate United (when actually I have been proved right every step of the way).

Putting you on ignore for now.

Ok Birdy, that was an overreaction originally - I apologise and deleted the post.

I still maintain though that you have a know-it-all air and that it wasn't fair of you to try to devalue my opinion with the anti-United stuff, especially when they have only proved me right every step of the way. If they were good I would say so, but they're not. They are far from it.

Ultimately Rashford has never done anything in terms of PL or CL title races so I think it's very fair to say he's far from a top player. I don't rate him at all (many agree with me), you do, end of story.

He could not have won anything in PL/CL when he was part of a sinking ship like UTD
A mess of SD/direction, and coaches changing every other year without plan whatsoever, expensive buys without plan again, and ludicrous wages given guess what? WITHOUT PLAN again

How many players would be able to carry such a mess to winning stuff? Even prime Messi would not

So, let's put aside what he won and what didn't win,
and let's stick to the topic, which is his skillset and whether the can be a top player if he is a part of team that works properly
