I'd take Rashford on loan with them paying a sizeable chunk of his wages. That would be fairly low risk. If we get the Rashford of a couple of years ago, great. If we get the more recent version, he fucks off back in the summer.

While this is true it’s not without risk
a) we will still have to pay a sizeable chunk of his wages that will be wasted, b) he will get substantial game time, even if he’s rubbish, which may impact results and c) he may destabilise team harmony

🚨🇫🇷 Mathys Tel and his agent are in Munich together to assess all options after rejecting Spurs proposal.

Tottenham will explore other targets while Tel will consider other bids for loan/permanent move.

❗️ Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Aston Villa all in contact.

Man U are claimed to be willing to pay half his wages to any club mad enough to take him off their hands but even then it would still be £150k a week.

Their problem. Let them suffer.

It would be old style Villa to sell Duran and end up with Rashford.

If the only other player in was Rashford, I'd be concerned.  BUT, if we loaned him (on Unai's request) and Felix and a centre half, I'd be fairly optimistic.

A Rashford that gives a shit is very good. Just seems to have lost interest in the game. He could be amazing.

Honestly, I quite like Rashford but I think £300k/week off Manchester United’s budget and a player spreading discontent in their dressing room is worth more to us than paying £150k/week for a player who’s just “alright” and might not be the best for Ollie’s confidence

A fired up Rashford with a point to prove under Unai’s tutelage could be awesome, sadly I don’t think the kid ‘want’s it’ anymore.

Rashford would be horrific, hopefully it's just his agent whoring him out.
