I would not say no to Rashford back. I just hope we can get the best out of both him and Watkins if we did.

Unlikely, Ollie's epic meltdown after being dropped for PSG suggests an obvious clash there. Challenge with Rashford is tactical, doesn't fit in our midfield four and his back to goal play is average at 9. Has other attributes, power and pace for starters, but again it's one I think we should swerve.

I always thought Rashford at his best is left forward so he should work with Ollie well.  Him, Rogers and Buendia would all be competing for that place or as one of the tens.

I can imagine Gordon is on a great deal less wages than Rashford, plus he is young enough to have a decent transfer value in a few seasons time.

Rashford was already on a decent wedge, but will get a 25% increase due to Yanited qualifying for the Champions League.

I would love us to sign Rashford. Genuinely one of those 'other level' players.

I was concerned last season that he'd bring a media circus, but was wrong. Get him back.

Yep as a general rule we should be looking to sign younger players. The exception being if an older player is an exceptional talent. Rashford is the epitome of that.

But any new club signing him gives him a contract on their terms as much as his terms. He might stay at Manure to keep that money but must expect a drop off for signing elsewhere.

Absolutely this.
Yes. He's a thoroughbred.

Anthony Gordon to Barcelona is like me going down Sainsbury's to get some milk in the morning and finding myself stumbling into bed with Margot Robbie and then pouring the milk all over her and licking every drop up over the next three hours

Insane shouldn't happen stuff.

The Office Cleaner carrying a £70m transfer fee is madness!
