You know things are bad at United when Marcus Rashford's biggest critic in the press says he should start up front in their toughest game of the season!

As bad as Hojlund is, I doubt the current Marcus Rashford would do any better than him at Anfield.

I have to take issue with the suggestion that Rashford usually plays well at Anfield.

I'm struggling to think of any examples of this happening and I've tracked down Samuel's ratings for Rashford in his last four appearances at Anfield, where, because of injury or suspension, he's only played four times in just over six years and it seems he hasn't played well there for a long time, if at all!

Here they are - 5/10, 1/10, 2/10 and 4/10.
