What has gone wrong at Man Utd?<\/h3>\n

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has hit back at speculation over his future at Old Trafford with a snappy social media post. Rashford has been on the end of mass backlash over the past week for his post-Manchester derby antics, and he has now taken it upon himself to fight back.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old started United’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester City at the end of October as he continued his goal drought, now standing at 10 games.<\/p>\n

In the aftermath, since-confirmed reports claimed Rashford had been spotted at a Manchester nightclub just hours after the humiliation at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

A source close to Rashford said he ‘attended an intimate, pre-planned celebration in honour of his birthday at a private area of a Chinawhite organised by his friends’.<\/p>\n

He left before close and wasn’t late for training on Monday, but started on the bench in Wednesday’s 3-0 Carabao Cup loss to Newcastle United.<\/p>\n

On Friday, United manager Erik ten Hag branded Rashford’s decision to have a public party ‘unacceptable’ but confirmed he had apologised and the matter had been resolved internally.<\/p>\n

But speculation – intensified by Rashford’s omission from the squad in Saturday’s 1-0 win against Fulham – has continued to swirl.<\/p>\n

The United No 10 travelled and was on the bench at Craven Cottage, but Ten Hag confirmed he wasn’t available for selection after failing a late fitness test.<\/p>\n

That didn’t stop looming concerns over his status in the Dutchman’s project among supporters, though. And fan channel ‘The United Stand’ broadcasted a live stream on Monday titled ‘Rashford’s future in doubt?’.<\/p>\n

Rashford took to X (formerly Twitter) to blast the post with a short but strong message, replying: “Please STOP spreading malicious rumours.”<\/p>\n

He’s been widely praised for his reaction across the fanbase and firmly retains the support of millions on his mission to rediscover his devastating 2022\/23 form.<\/p>\n
