Marcus Rashford - signed on loan (injured - out for season?)

[Dave]

People didn't want Ross Barkley in the summer for the tiny amount we paid for him for somewhat similar reasons to Rashford.

Barkley wasn't a lazy player who hadn't lifted a finger for two seasons. So not a valid comparison for me.

This time two seasons ago Rashford was just about to go on a run of scoring six goals in five games on his way to a 34 goal season.

True but he's done nothing in the last 18 months.

Really poor comparison, Barkley was playing regular football and hadn't thrown his toys out , taken the piss for months on end upsetting more than 2 managers .

Yes, but they were Man U toys and it was taking the piss out of Man U and upsetting managers of Man U. Every cloud.

Tap in merchant Romano now saying it’s done. As of about 40 mins ago.

Think they're just waiting to confirm that his Chinawhite membership can be transferred from Manchester to Birmingham.

Have seen some comments from ManU fans that say Rashford isn't on anywhere near 300k a week for them because a lot of that was CL and bonus related, so they reckon Villa paying 70% if his actual salary is more like 170k a week. I'd assume we've got performance bonus' too, but that's really not as diabolical an amount as some people are claiming.

He was supposed to be having his medical today but apparently he's currently in Belfast.

And he'll obviously stay in a hotel as and when necessary.

Still though, TalkSport...

Ita talkshite get it right

He was on a 20% reduction because he wasn't playing CL football. Probably picking up £255K a week at Utd approx.

Thought experiment: given he now *will* be playing Champions League football, does that increase his Man Utd salary and thus the amount we need to pay?

(I mean, obviously not. But y'know)

Nobody has been to China White since 1998.

I  did see that being brought up by the journo speaking about his 20% salary reduction but couldn't either confirm or deny. I'm sure it will come out if that's the case very soon.

Pires did the same didn't he when he joined.

Difference was that it took Pires two hours to commute from the centre circle to the penalty area.

👏

Superb, cd.



I’m with the, ‘He’ll be brill in the CL and liven up the PL’ crowd.
