Reporter Ben Jacobs reveals the view of Man United’s leadership on Rashford’s current situation at Aston Villa.
Last winter transfer window, Marcus Rashford moved to Aston Villa on loan. The English striker integrated quite quickly with the new team and often received praise from coach Unai Emery and his teammates. However, Rashford still could not find the feeling of scoring goals.
After 1 month playing for Aston Villa, the striker born in 1997 has played 7 matches and only had 3 assists. In addition, Rashford has never been used by coach Unai Emery for the full 90 minutes. In the match against Club Brugge in the Champions League in the early morning of March 5, this player only played 64 minutes and was replaced.
According to some experts, Rashford will soon find his scoring touch at Aston Villa if he continues to maintain his current playing momentum. Witnessing the revival of the English striker at Villa Park, many people wonder whether Man United will regret it or not?
Currently, Man United is in a situation of lacking personnel in the attack when Amad Diallo suffered a serious injury. Meanwhile, Zirkzee, Hojlund and Garnacho have continuously disappointed in recent matches. According to reporter Ben Jacobs from Talk Sports, the Man United board has a very clear view of Rashford and Sancho, the players who are on loan.
“The Man United board has no regrets about sending Rashford out on loan. Although he has had some notable performances, it has not said much. Rashford needs to maintain his energy, intensity and quality in the game for a while longer before being able to evaluate.
In addition, the cases of Sancho and Rashford are clearly seen. They can succeed at the new team because they are coached by other coaches. The environment at Aston Villa or Dortmund before is also completely different from Man United. When they return to the club, they are not sure to maintain the same form as when playing at the loan team.”
