Manchester United is once again under pressure because of the latest results in the Premier League. Manchester United played two games after the international break, and the team didn't win both. They drew 1-1 against Brentford away from home and then lost 4-3 against Chelsea away from home. The two games included late goals as Man United were close to winning the games late. The pressure has been growing on the manager, Erik Ten Hag, and on certain players as well. One of the players who is expected to perform every week is Marcus Rashford, who has played at the club for the majority of his life. He did not deliver in either game as many expected, and Ten Hag even started him on the bench against Chelsea. Rashford received criticism and concerns from a Manchester United legend, and Ten Hag defended his striker.

The legend that recently talked about Marcus Rashford is Gary Neville. Neville spoke about Rashford and said, "I don’t know how to say this, but to me there is something not right. He’s not right. And it’s not just a case that he’s not playing football well, he doesn’t look happy. And I’m looking at him thinking, I’m actually worried about him. You know when you watch a player and you think actually there’s something there. We know there’s obviously been a couple of incidents this season; we know he’s come under a bit of pressure, and his form was bad. We know that."

Neville continued to talk about his concerns for Rashford and said, "But I look at him and I think, that’s not right that. I genuinely would worry about him at this moment in time because it’s not a lad that’s grown up with the spirit and freedom of playing for Manchester United as a kid.”
