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

[Dante Lavelli]

Allegedly the £40m fee will be used to pay off the remainder of his Man U contract, so he may accept something more modest.
Probably with Barcelona, but you never know.

[Clampy]

I think its abit petty to call people out.

We are all villa fans at end of the day. People are entitled to express their opinion

Lets enjoy his time here

No, it's not. When you have a poster who can barely crack a smile when we win but spend days posting after a defeat, it can grate and you wonder why they bother.

Rashford been better than expected. Id obviously  take him of he took a wage cut but at 300k too expensive and wont happen

If he helps us deliver a trophy or CL the momey would have been well spent

How do you know what wage he’s on and whether we can afford it?

[SamTheMouse]

I had my reservations, but he's well up for it and working hard. Great to see.

[Sexual Ealing]

Reservations were understandable.

[AV84]

The ideal situation is that Barca can't afford him and other clubs offer more money to buy him but he doesn't agree personal terms and signs for us. So Man Utd only get the minimum price for him, which barely helps them given the mess they're in, and us and Rashford live happily ever after (for another season before we sell him to Barca for £75mil)

[Toronto Villa]

I think he will want to be where he is wanted and loved. That’s certainly not going back to Man U. And if he’s happy with us it will be risk on his part to move again and start elsewhere. Emery clearly wanted him and I am sure at the end of the loan spell he wants us the deal will be made long term.

[dave.woodhall]

Sign him. Now.

[Mellin]

Yep.

[Ian.]

Yes please!

[Villatillidie25]

At the risk of being a party pooper my overall impression is he’s very direct, a good dribbler and dangerous but his decision making isn’t the best, which is probably due to the shocking coaching he’ll have received for the majority of his career. Hopefully Emery can improve that because he could be a real asset

[edgysatsuma89]

Seeing someone just burn a player and get to the line is always great to see.

[garyellis]

Excellent performance tonight. A goal is inevitable the way he is working for the team.

[Percy McCarthy]

For everyone moaning about his tracking for Terrence, Salah didn't track Digne for our goal, which if we had lost it would have meant a break was on for them.

Also, they also were not in the same position in the pitch when Liverpool broke with the foul on Ollie. TTA had come right over to the middle and had 10 yards or so on Rashford closer to our half. But we also had a reasonable amount back. If the bounce had favoured Digne instead of Salah, Rashford would have been away on his own as well.

Yes, in hindsight I would have preferred him to come back more, and would be fuming more IF they had both starting on the wing, but it is not like TTA ran right passed him.

Rashford didn't bother his h*le, that's the long and short of it. He saw that break and play developing and could have broken his last sweat to get back, it wasn't a lightning quick break...but he wasn't bothered. That's the main reason his career is in freefall to start with. 60 mins into his first start in a Villa shirt...

Any whataboutery comparison with Salah is bogus...Salah is given licence by Liverpool to stay high on the right, hes arguably the best player in the PL, hes everything Rashford isn't basically.

This is just Rashford hate isn’t it? How do you know he was t given licence by Emery to stay up the pitch? I’ll answer for you. You don’t.

Brontebilly often claims to be ITK on Unai’s inner thoughts.

[PaulWinch again]

Sign him. Now.

Agreed, he is just class. The readjustment and wherewithal for Asensio’s was tremendous.
