Marcus Rashford
My view is that Rashford was mishandled rather than simply out of form, from a game model that pushed him deeper and wider away from the box to a failure the club has to own, with the sale a cultural defeat.

- Opinion Losing Rashford is the club's failure United failed to maximise an asset through constant changes in managers, game models and roles, and the end result is what matters.
- Opinion Selling Rashford is a cultural defeat for United The footballing case for selling Rashford holds, but losing him is a verdict on how the club has been run for a decade.
- Tactical analysis Ten Hag's game model is making Rashford, Bruno and Onana worse Three seasons of data on shots, final-third touches, box entries and launches show United's best players being moved away from what they do best.
