Rashturd.
Not good enough. Sorry. No way barca keeps him unless he wants to pretty much sacrifice a lot financially . No way the club doesnt see what we are seeing.

It's not that simple, takes a lot to look great as a Barca winger... Rashy is doing good enough.

Even guys who were calling me ultra clueless for not rating him (serghei, te amo barca) have turned on him now 
As I knew they would, as I have known all along what a useless bluffer he is.
When a guy has:
played football for over 40 years (me);
studied the game tactically and just followed it religiously for most of the last 40 odd years (me);
watched the player in question for all his career (me on Rashford);
has proven and tested high IQ and good qualifications (me)...
the smart thing to do is to listen to that guy, especially when you haven't had anywhere near as much PL or Man United exposure as I have. Not to stubbornly argue against him.
I am losing interest in modern football, but the above is an effective concoction that leads to getting things right more than you get them wrong.
I'd also suggest the fact that so many people on here argued for playing him as a 9, including Birdy (his biggest advocate), is evidence that most of you knew very little of him as a player. I'd seen him fail as a 9 consistently and extensively when played there at United, and he even came out and admitted recently himself that he cannot do it (if the quotes are true).

Hahaha I don't really rate Rashford but a lot of that was me amusing myself for effect. I don't have a problem with anyone who does rate him, just not my sort of player.I sort of understood that
I am fine thanks, just been keeping myself busy. I watched the game tonight - Barca were poor but a 1-1 is a great result given the performance.

1-1 is a very good result... finally Flick understood how to play cup-matches. We're going to tear Newcastle a new one at home

Yeah I'd be very surprised if you don't win by 2 goals or maybe 3 - Newcastle aren't great away and Barca are strong at home. They needed a lead to protect.1-1 is a very good result... finally Flick understood how to play cup-matches. We're going to tear Newcastle a new one at home
I don't know why they didn't just calm themselves down and play out the game. They kept attacking - Howe must be so scared of Camp Nou that he thought they needed a 2 goal lead minimum, lol. Which I'd agree with, tbh.
