Marcus Rashford has responded to
claims suggesting that he is among
a couple of Manchester United
players ‘irritated’ by Cristiano
Ronaldo, with the media doing its
upmost to create divides to fit their
preferred narrative.
When we initially reported on the news,
provided by Christian Falk on Twitter, we
warned that the German reporter was hit and
miss when it came to stories on Manchester
United. Without trying to sound disrespectful,
you shouldn’t believe everything you read, in
other words.
Falk tweeted: “TRUE. The English players
like Harry Maguire, Marcus Rashford& Co
are irritated that Ronaldo wants to lead the
dressing room with his own clique. There is a
risk of split in the team.”
This was pure speculative at best, and United
star Rashford didn’t waste any time when it
came to squash the claims, by quoting Falk’s
tweet and adding: Are we just making it up as
we go along now then? Please stop looking
for divides.”
It feels like a couple of journalists are all
digging for that big story on Ronaldo
showing how he is the problem at United and
pretending like we didn’t have any before he
arrived in the summer and they won’t stop
here.
Rashford did the best thing by coming out and
making his side clear because these news
drops spread like wildfire on social media.
Anyhow, back to the football- Ronaldo has
been involved in twelve goals from his 21
Premier League outings this season. He will
be looking to make it 20 goals by the end of
the season.
United face Leeds United next in the Premier
League on Sunday.
I should add this is a much better way to use
of social media from a players perspective
than we’ve seen recently from the likes of
Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard.
