Breaking News: Marcus Rashford can’t repeat his last season’s success
ESPN pundit Craig Burley fears Marcus Rashford can’t repeat his last season’s success
We don’t expect it, we demand it. This is Manchester united. Rashford must keep up his form, Antony’s trial period is over and our 9 whoever it might be has to deliver.
Marcus Rashford was in outstanding form last season for Manchester United, he bagged 30 goals and 11 assists, as he helped Manchester United finish 3rd last season giving them champions league football, end their trophy drought and got to another cup final.
For most of the season particularly after the World Cup, he was carrying that team on his shoulders. They’re unlikely to sign a top caliber striker next season, and more of the same is expected of Marcus Rashford and as good as he is, I don’t think he’s consistent enough to lead the attack by himself for a second season.
United Sends Bid for Rasmus Hojlund: the missing piece of the puzzle
The guy’s not peak IS NOT Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, he isn’t Harry Kane, Mohamed Salah, Robert Lewandowski, Erling Haaland peak, Luis Suarez etc.
you can’t expect him to finish all of his chances he has and convert them at a regular rate, it worked last season, but if he has a period where he goes 8 games without scoring, he’s capable of doing thaT.
Manchester United aren’t getting any output from Antony, Jadon Sancho, Anthony Martial who spends so much time injured, don’t tell me you’re getting another Wout Weghorst. I don’t know if he can carry the team on his shoulders by himself again, he needs another attacker to support him and what Marcus Rashford did last season isn’t sustainable because he’s capable of having hot streaks and can go cold too.
Give Sancho Sum Time Man We Had Mangers Who Didn’t Knw How To Use Him It’s His First Season Under Ten Hag Who Helped Him Under What Personal Difficulties So Give Him Next Season Man Smh.

Rashford’s stats at 19/20yrs of age.
Rashford at 23- 21g 12a
Rashford at 22- 22g 8a
Rashford at 21- 13g 7a
Rashford at 20- 13g 8a
He has had 1 bad season as a winger, in a season that was United’s worst ever season in the pl, and he was coming off racist abuses he got from missing the pen in the euros. There are contexts to these things that people just sweep under the carpet.
Every United fan knows since SAF left we haven’t had a manager like ETH that improves players (maybe Mourinho but Rashford had one of his best seasons under Mo) one season under a proper coach and he got 30g. So let’s see what he does next season with more help from Ten Hag. He wasn’t as lucky as Saka and Martinelli to have a modern coach, or like Foden to have Pep. Now he has Ten Hag let’s see what he does.
Onana will be done at £45m and Mount was done at £55m (add ons of 5m including winning Prem and UCL which wont happen for a couple of years). so that is £15m left. The Glazers under FFP could add £90m out of their own pockets, but that hasn’t EVER been done in 18 years, which shows why they are desp1sed. So this means the only way to get a Hojlund or Kolo Muani (at around £50-60m) – is to sell.
Murtough thus far has proven he isn’t very good at this, at all, and this is a skill in itself – buying is easier to do. My opinion is Paul Mitchell needs to come in ASAP. However, it’s like bobbing for apple’s. Luckily we have 2 that will very likely be easy deals to do – Fred for 15m to Fulham and Henderson for 25m to Forest.
Here’s Why Ten Hag Signed Mason Mount
The likes of Maguire, Bailly, Telles, Williams, Elanga, McTominay, Donny, Martial, etc – Murtough would very much struggle to do good sales business on. To surmise, we will likely JUST get Hojlund over the line because of those easier sales. Also, Glazer’s need a JAYEFFKAY moment to align their boardroom decision making.
Sorry Burley to say you are dead wrong. Manchester United will strengthen the squad not because you said so or stupidly expect poor performance from any player, that’s absurd in my opinion. The problem with speaking cheaply against United to gain engagement will tell on you over time.
Here’s Why Ten Hag Signed Mason Mount
Mason Greenwood training for the first time since suspension
EPL
Mason Greenwood Breaks Silence on His Man Utd Future
According to the Mirror, Mason Greenwood wants to stay at Manchester United and has held “positive” talks with club chiefs ahead of a huge decision.
The England international, 21, hasn’t played for United since January 2022 following allegations against him by his partner Harriet and remains unavailable for selection as club chiefs conduct an internal investigation. He was arrested and due to stand trial before all charges were dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service in February.
Did Mason Greenwood have a baby?
SportsFila is aware Mason and his girlfriend recently became parents to a new baby, whose picture was shared on the couple’s instagram accounts.
His university student girlfriend Harriet Robson recently enjoyed a baby shower where she showed off her blossoming bump.
The Sun understands the £75,000-a-week footballer plans to marry her.
Greenwood has been undergoing one-on-one training sessions in a bid to be fit for the new Premier League season. United’s campaign starts at home to Wolves in just over two weeks’ time, with a decision on Greenwood’s future expected in the coming days.
Ten Hag addresses Mason Greenwood and Man Utd takeover situation
United’s hierarchy – not manager Erik ten Hag – will decide whether Greenwood will remain employed by the club. Yet Ten Hag will be forced to make a decision on how to manage the player if club chiefs decide he can stay. A loan move could be an option.
Adidas are United’s biggest sponsors after signing a ten-year, £750million deal in 2015. It is believed other sponsors are set to follow suit.
A final decision on Greenwood’s future is set to be made before the Prem season starts, with the Red Devils opening against Wolves on August 14.
Is Mason Greenwood set to come back to Man utd Old TRAFFORD?
But Adidas’ intervention may seal a sensational comeback to Old Trafford after weeks of speculation that he could go out on loan.
The striker has been suspended since January 2022 amid his arrest for attempted rape, assault and controlling and coercive behaviour.
According to Goal sources, if Greenwood is released, United will need to pay up the final two years of his contract. It’s also important to remember that he was one of the best young footballers in Europe before the allegations were made against him and could be signed by a rival club.
Yet, according to The Sun, Greenwood is confident of being retained by United. It’s claimed there has been “positive” talks between the two parties.
See what Rasmus Hojlund bring to Manchester United
Manchester United kit manufacturer Adidas say they have not held discussions with the club regarding a return for Mason Greenwood, SportsFila understands.
Reports elsewhere on Friday evening claimed that the sportswear giant had approved a potential comeback for the 21-year-old, who still remains suspended by United.
Greenwood has always denied the allegations.

See what Rasmus Hojlund bring to Manchester United
Manchester United agrees league-winning £72m signing deal with Atalanta for Denmark forward. Manchester United have reached an agreement with Serie A side Atalanta over the signing of striker Rasmus Hojlund; 20-year-old was left out of the squad that played Bournemouth in a pre-season friendly on Saturday.
Here is what Rasmus Hojlund bring to Manchester United
This guy is SURELY going to be a good fit. You can always tell a good Man U player by looking at their face. If they have one of those serious faces, you know he’s gunna be a Man U legend. You watch. He will score a lots goals, SportsFila.com could see Rasmus Hojlund near the top 5 at the pl golden boot race; he didnt score that much goals for atalanta last season but he will thrive under ETH.
Breaking News: United and Atalanta reaches Rasmus Hojlund Agreement
Analysis: Hojlund has huge potential
Rasmus Hojlund has captured the imagination after an encouraging season in Serie A and Manchester United are betting on the 20-year-old talent to be the next superstar striker in European football. But how can they get the best from the young Dane?
Man Utd tactics demand Hojlund makes penetrative runs in behind the opposition defence. “That needs a lot of sprints and a lot of quick decisions from our strikers, and I think those are big strengths of Rasmus,” Christian Ilzer told Sky Sports as reported by SportsFila.
“I think it was key that our philosophy and style fit his skillset perfectly so he comes into a good environment. Ras is a great addition to our team with his abilities. It is his speed, his general physique and his willingness to work hard against the ball.”
There is a recognition that Højlund’s youth means he is not yet the complete forward but confidence within United’s hierarchy in Ten Hag’s ability to develop the player’s full potential. The manager is impressed with Højlund’s determination to work hard to improve.
United reach a compromise with Atalanta to sign Rasmus Hojlund
Although Højlund is regarded by United primarily as a No 9, Ten Hag would be expected to deploy him across the frontline on occasion, with Marcus Rashford able to operate at centre-forward.
Ten Hag has another No 9 in Anthony Martial but does not feel able to rely on him because the Frenchman is prone to injury. This has put Martial’s future in the balance, although Ten Hag remains impressed with what 27-year-old can offer when fit.
Ten Hag said United’s inability to take their chances in a 2-0 friendly loss to Real Madrid on Thursday “absolutely” emphasised their need for a new striker.
United had chances of their own but failed to score with any of their 14 attempts – an all too familiar tale given their problems taking opportunities last season.
Asked if the attacking display in Texas emphasised why they were looking to sign a new striker, Ten Hag said: “Absolutely.
“There were two things – the pressing can be better from the start and scoring goals.
“I think we need more players who are capable to be in the one-on-ones and we had the situations of one-on-ones.”

Breaking News: United and Atalanta reaches Rasmus Hojlund Agreement
Manchester United reach agreement with Atalanta to sign Rasmus Hojlund, SportsFila confirms from a Fabrizio Romano update.
Manchester United have reached an agreement with Atalanta for the signing of forward Rasmus Hojlund in a deal worth €75million plus €10million in performance-related add-ons.
The Athletic reported earlier this month that United have agreed preliminary personal terms with the forward and he is set to sign a five-year deal with the option of a further year.
Rasmus Højlund to Manchester United, here we go! Agreement reached right now with Atalanta 🚨🔴🇩🇰 #MUFC
Package will be around €70m with add ons, clubs preparing documents in the next 24 hours.

Manchester United have reached an agreement with Atalanta over the signing of Rasmus Hojlung.
Fabrizio Romano dropped his favourite ‘here we go line’ on Twitter after evening to mark the announcement that Hojlund will be the next player to join Manchester United this summer.
The Denmark international, 20, will cost United a package of around €70 million including add-ons. Hojlund had alreaqdy agreed a five-year deal with the Reds, despite interest from Paris Saint-Germain.
Breaking News: Time for Anthony Martial To Go
Great signing. Some player. Benny would tend him into world class. Hopefully Rashford replicates last season. Martial would step up his game this season. Defensive midfielder is needed to challenge Casemiro though.
In the realm of football’s grace, a star did rise,
A striker bold with fire in his eyes,
From Denmark’s land, a talent so grand,
Rasmus Højlund, his name forever will stand.’
Is Rasmus Højlund the closest striker clone to Haaland?
In the heart of Manchester, his dreams took flight,
A Red Devil soaring through day and night,
With boots that danced upon the hallowed turf,
He showed the world his skills and worth.
Graceful strides, he weaved through defenders,
With every touch, hearts he would render,
The ball a puppet to his magic feet,
In the face of goal, he’d never retreat.
A thunderous strike, a shot so true,
The net would bulge, the crowd would coo,
The Stretford End erupted with delight,
For Rasmus’ goals, a mesmerizing sight.
Yet, it wasn’t just his goals that stood out,
His spirit and passion left no doubt,
A leader on the pitch, a team’s beating heart,
He played with love, a work of art.
Through ups and downs, he fought the fight,
Through injuries and struggles, his spirit stayed bright,
The fans knew they had a warrior, a friend,
In Rasmus Højlund, on whom they could depend.
The legend of this Dane will forever grow,
In the annals of history, his name will flow,
A Man United hero, a striker suprem
I’m sure given time he’ll be a success at Man Utd but considering he has only played 1 season in topflight football and got outscored by Lookman in the same team is quite concerning, especially with the fee expected to be £55M+
Manchester United have purchased a phenomenal talent here, Atalanta should have held out for more than was paid for Anthony as Hojlund’s ceiling is FAR higher. He has EVERYTHING needed to become a MONSTER number 9.
