Owen Hargreaves believes Marcus Rashford was ‘fuming’ after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer left him out of the starting XI for the trip to Tottenham on Saturday.
The England international came off the bench with just over 20 minutes to go to replace Cristiano Ronaldo in the 3-0 win, before scoring his side’s third goal with a composed finish.

Pogba puzzle is Man Utd greatest failure & they’re at fault for inconsistency
Paul Scholes’ recent dissection of Manchester United’s performances was largely intelligent. Amid the excitement of United’s comeback win against Atalanta in the Champions League, it was Scholes who predicted trouble ahead against Liverpool.
However, his comments about Paul Pogba seem less sure-footed. After Pogba’s sending-off in the Liverpool game, Scholes suggested his tackle on Naby Keita had been ‘ridiculous’ and accused the Frenchman of causing ‘mayhem over the last couple of years’.
I am not sure how much of that is true. Pogba was over the ball on Keita and had to go. However, there was no malice. He was trying to win the ball. He missed. It happens.
Man United’s Solskjaer still in a job due to Woodward reluctance to sack him
An interesting dynamic that has not been explored during the crisis at Manchester United has been the impact of executive vice chairman Ed Woodward’s impending departure from Old Trafford.
While many outsiders were left scratching their heads at the failure to fire Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after last week’s 5-0 trouncing by Liverpool, some insiders believe Woodward will be reluctant to get rid of the Norwegian before he leaves as it would provide a damning final comment on his time in charge.
DID YOU KNOW: If Frank Lampard stopped scoring in 2006, he would still have more career goals and assists than Xavi and Iniesta combined.
Radamel Falcao on facing José Giménez:
“He drove me crazy by asking me questions all game. He asked me what car I had, then why the Ecuador, Venezuela and Colombia flags had the same colours and whether September was written with a ‘p’ or without. I missed a chance in the end.”
Rashford hits back at Hargreaves’ claim he was ‘fuming’ over being benched
Marcus Rashford has slammed claims made by Owen Hargreaves that his goal celebration for Manchester United at Tottenham was aimed in frustration at Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for not starting him.
The England international broke through in the dying minutes to seal a 3-0 victory for Solskjaer’s side to ease the pressure on the under-fire Norwegian after last week’s thrashing by Liverpool.
Rashford went to celebrate in front of the Red Devils supporters and appeared subdued before passionately shouting in front of the visiting fans, with Hargreaves claiming that Solskjaer not starting the 23-year-old was affecting his mood.

Ronaldo gives hope to Solskjaer’s revolution: The old guard carried the team
Cristiano Ronaldo played an important role for Manchester United against Tottenham, in a game that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had to win. And he did win, spelling the end of Nuno Espirito Santo at Spurs in the process.
