Rashford offers worrying update as he speaks out over 'months & months of abuse'

Marcus Rashford has delivered a worrying message to fans on social media, revealing that he has endured 'months of abuse', with Man United supporters pinning some of the blame on YouTuber Mark Goldbridge.

The 26-year-old forward has had a difficult season on the pitch, failing to match the achievements of his 30-goal haul during the 2022-23 campaign, scoring eight goals so far across all competitions this season.

Goldbridge runs a fan channel called The United Stand, which has 1.85million subscribers on YouTube. He has recently released several videos in which he criticises the England star, notably once referring to Rashford as 'about as useful as a wheely bin with no wheels.'

On Thursday evening, Rashford responded to a post on X (formerly Twitter) that said: 'The way Marcus Rashford is being treated is absolutely disgusting. It's cruel. It's abuse.'

The 26-year-old wrote back claiming that he was tired of the abuse he has received in recent months. 'I appreciate your support! It is abuse and has been for months. Enough is enough,' Rashford said on X.

As a team, Erik ten Hag's side have endured a difficult season, crashing out of the Champions League and have dropped to sixth in the Premier League standings, with several United stars recently being heavily scrutinised for their performances by some former pros and pundits.

Last Sunday, United scraped through to the FA Cup final after beating Championship side Coventry City on penalties, despite giving away a three-goal lead in the match.

Goldbridge posted a video on his YouTube channel reflecting on the game where he claims Ten Hag left Rashford on the pitch for too long. He said: 'Leaving Rashford on, who is about as useful as a wheely bin with no wheels.'
