Marcus Rashford made a dazzling debut for Aston Villa after being frozen out at Manchester United, leaving fans convinced he made the right move.
Fans have already made their minds up on Marcus Rashford after his Aston Villa debut on Sunday. The former Manchester United forward, who was completely frozen out by manager Ruben Amorim, has joined Unai Emery's side on loan until the end of the season, with Aston Villa having the option to buy him for £40 million. Rashford, wearing the No. 9 shirt vacated by Jhon Duran, who departed for Al Nassr in a £64.
5 million deal, was on the bench alongside fellow loan addition Marco Asensio for the FA Cup fourth round tie against Tottenham Hotspur. Goals from Jacob Ramsey and Morgan Rogers put the hosts 2-0 up at Villa Park, and both Rashford and Asensio were introduced in the 66th minute to a thunderous ovation. Rashford, having not played since mid-December, looked incredibly sharp and with a point to prove in his cameo. Playing through the middle but floating out to the left, he produced plenty of neat touches and nutmegged Pedro Porro in glorious fashion in one of his key highlights. The England international linked up well with his new teammates and showed he's more than willing to press and work for the team. And though it was only a substitute appearance, the positive reaction to Rashford's return to the pitch in new surroundings was already evident. One fan on X said, 'Marcus Rashford has shown more attacking intent and quality in 5 minutes for Aston Villa than all of the Manchester United attackers in the last few weeks combined.' Another commented, 'There’s not a single attacker at Manchester United better than Marcus Rashford I’m sorry.' A third posted, 'This Rashford performance is teaching you that environment / culture is EVERYTHING.' A fourth fan fumed, 'Amorim gaslighted the braindead section in our fanbase into thinking Rashford wasn’t training properly lmfao.' Another wrote, 'Rashford is balling out there man…playing with much better players does make a difference.' With Ollie Watkins out injured, Rashford will be hoping for a first start on Saturday in the Premier League when Villa host Ipswich Town
