Paul Scholes accuses Rashford of disgrace for behavior at Manchester United.
Paul Scholes' words about Marcus Rashford
According to The Sun: Paul Scholes admitted that he finds it 'very hard to feel joy' for Marcus Rashford, criticizing his attitude during his time at 'Manchester United'.
Rashford went on loan to 'Barcelona' in the summer after being sidelined by coach Ruben Amorim.
Paul Scholes 'struggles with joy' for Marcus Rashford in Barcelona Getty GettyScholes emphasized that Rashford did not respond to Amorim's calls to work harder, and this brought him criticism during his time at the club.
Marcus clearly wanted a change, and after a brief stint at 'Aston Villa', he found himself at 'Barcelona'. He has since managed to score two goals and provide two assists in seven matches under Hansi Flick.
However, last weekend he did not play in the match against 'Getafe', likely due to being late for a team meeting.
Rashford, who scored twice against 'Newcastle' in the Champions League a week ago, also made it into the starting lineup for the England national team under Thomas Tuchel.
Criticism from Paul Scholes
Despite Rashford's successes, Paul Scholes openly expresses his dissatisfaction, criticizing his decision to move from 'United'.
Scholes said on the podcast The Good, The Bad & The Football: “Without a doubt, this kid has talent. It's ridiculous, he showed himself in a big game, and his second goal was just superb.
“I find it hard to feel joy for him, partly because of his attitude at United. I thought the way he behaved was simply shameful.”
“If you have a disagreement with the coach, that's fine, but remember your teammates. You have a huge arena of 80,000 people, they need you to give part of your effort.”
“I often saw him just walking through matches at United because he wanted to leave. I found his behavior unacceptable. He acted as if he had given up on United, and if you give up once, you'll give up again.”id='6377066890112' data-video-id='6377066890112' data-account='5067014667001' data-player='default' data-usage='cms:WordPress:6.5.6:2.8.6:javascript' data-embed='default' class='video-js' data-application-id='' controls style='width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; top: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0; left: 0;'>
It should be noted that Scholes' criticism relates not only to Rashford but also to the overall situation at the club, where senior players should set an example for the younger ones. The situation surrounding Rashford can serve as a good lesson on the importance of discipline and commitment, especially in team sports.
Rashford's move to 'Barcelona' opens new horizons in his career, but leaves questions about what his role in the team will be and whether he can overcome the difficulties he faced at 'United'.
