Marcus Rashford for Man Utd Player of the Season 2023
Obvious Winner: SportsFila Votes for Marcus Rashford as Man Utd Player of the Season
There is also a lot more competition amongst this season’s squad to win the Player of the Year award, named in honour of the club’s legendary manager Sir Matt Busby.
There have been some strong bids from two of last summer’s signings Casemiro and Lisandro Martinez and the team captain Bruno Fernandes, but United’s best and most important player this year has been Marcus Rashford.
Marcus Rashford vs Kylian Mbappe ; Who Is a Better Player?
Marcus Rashford has had his best ever season in his career. Last season was his worst this season is his best. 12 months what a big change in scenery. 30 goals this season a new career high for him after having 5 all of last season. With Cristiano Ronaldo gone, Marcus Rashford has had to shoulder the responsibility in the Manchester United attack this season, and he knows that the team is his now. He’s thrived as being their number one option on offense and has carried them throughout the season. Without his 17 premier league goals, Manchester United don’t make top 4, that’s how influential he’s been to the team this season, and hopefully he finally adds that consistency in his game and carry on in this vein of form next season.
Rashford Asks for £400k Per Week New Contract
Rashford has done it without one this season, carrying the burden of United’s attack, and for this he has overwhelmingly been their player of the season.
Oh My Goodness: What is Happening to Rashford?
They don’t really play any different to how they did last season. Difference is they actually have a midfield and defense now. You have no idea how deflating it is having your defense letting in a horrific goal once a game. It destroys your morale. Hope he can continue to progress though as he’s a fantastic kid.
Harry Kane and Mason Mount to Man Utd this summer
Which is why United signings need to be so crucial this year. Are you going to stay on the rashford train or is he just going to become an assist winger for Kane or Osimhen or whoever is in the middle. Personally, I think United needs more creativity not just manpower; players who can create but also ball control and handle. Which is why I don’t understand why Dybala is not the prime target and why United is not playing that false 9 formation, if they want to farm rashford.
Accordin to the Athletic, Picking Manchester United’s player of the year each season over the past decade has either meant selecting the one outstanding candidate who is clearly head and shoulders above the rest or scratching around for a single squad member worthy of the prize.
You do not have to think too far back to the days when David de Gea would be the only viable choice, being named the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year four times between 2014 and 2018, SportsFila.com thinks the Spanish keeper also had a wonderful season.
What If Manchester City Lose The Champions League Final?
More recently, Bruno Fernandes has taken De Gea’s place as the default choice with back-to-back wins in 2020 and 2021.
Which players could leave Man Utd?
McTominay, Maguire, Martial, Henderson, Williams, Fred, DVB, Elanga, Laird, Bailly, Telles…there’s TONS of players that can go, so they can raise over $200mil when combined with the transfer budget. Difficult, but definitely doable.

There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job
Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time
The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best
The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss
Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.
ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.
People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.
Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.

- Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United
- Man United searching for Erik ten Hag replacement
Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.
SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.
How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?
More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.
Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.
It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.
Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!
Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.
The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy
Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.
Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.
I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.
Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.
This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons
The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.
From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
