The fan listed 11 mistakes that Marcus Rashford made in just the first half of Man Utd's 0-1 loss to Newcastle on the evening of December 2.
These mistakes were posted by the account @SimonUTD11 on social network X right after the first half of the match at Saint James' Park ended.
Accordingly, in the fifth minute, Rashford did not run back to participate in defense, and was passed by Livramento in the fifth minute. In the 14th minute, the Man Utd striker only jogged and did not participate in the ball fight. Also in the 14th minute, Rashford tried to make a silly move and then fell down to play. In the 17th minute, he did not participate in defense and gave Livramento space to advance. In the 21st minute, Rashford did not follow Livramento again. In the 23rd minute, he received the ball on the wing and passed it to the opposing goalkeeper. In the 25th minute, Rashford passed the ball to the wrong address, causing Wan-Bissaka to be pressured and surrounded by the opponent. In the 26th minute, he only walked. In the 28th minute, the number 10 striker tried to dribble past two players, but passed the ball to the feet of another Newcastle player.

In the second half, Rashford still did not play better. After Anthony Gordon scored for Newcastle in the 55th minute, coach Erik Ten Hag had to bring on Antony to replace the player wearing the number 10 shirt. On social network X , the host of United Stand used the words "shameful" and "lack of effort" to describe Rashford's performance.
Rashford has only scored two goals in 18 games this season. He has lost the form that brought him 30 goals in 56 games last season. According to former England midfielder Tim Sherwood, if he continues to play like this, Rashford should not start for England at Euro 2024.
Meanwhile, coach Erik Ten Hag still defended Rashford. He acknowledged the problems, but affirmed that his student is trying to change. "We support Rashford and he will regain his form," the Dutch coach added.
After losing to Newcastle, Man Utd dropped to seventh place in the Premier League. The "Red Devils" have only 24 points after 14 rounds, nine points behind leaders Arsenal and four points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa.
In the Champions League, Man Utd are even on the verge of elimination. They are bottom of Group A with four points, one point behind Copenhagen and Galatasaray, while Bayern lead with 13 points. To qualify, Man Utd need to beat Bayern in the final round and hope that the Copenhagen-Galatasaray match ends in a draw.
