Wayne Rooney is not a big fan of his successor in the Manchester attack, Marcus Rashford.
Wayne Rooney, one of the legends of Manchester United, believes that Marcus Rashford is no longer essential to the Red Devils.
Rashford scored from the penalty spot in Saturday’s win over Everton. During the pre-match, Rooney was very critical of him on TNT Sports: “I don’t think Marcus (Rashford) is a leader. Sometimes his body language isn’t the best in this regard. I would rather look to Casemiro, (Raphael) Varane, Bruno (Fernandes) as captain.”

‘Wazza’ then advised Rashford to surround himself with good people to try and get his career back on track. “Sometimes you can think too much about the game and Marcus, I think he thinks about it too much or he seems to. He wants to do so well that it affects his game. Sometimes simplifying his game can be very effective. I’ve talked about the problems I’ve had in the past with pressure, and it’s not easy, but it’s important the people you have around you. Family, friends, good people who give you good advice, because sometimes you feel alone.”
Finally, Rooney concluded by suggesting that Rashford might do well to change clubs in the next transfer window. “I think they would consider (all offers for him) but he’s a Manchester guy and I hope he gets fit again and has a long career at this football club. Maybe that’s what he needs, a departure, to revive his career, but I would like him to stay and rediscover his talent, because he has so much of it. »
