Does Marcus Rashford remind you of Andy Cole?

Would take Big Andy's left toe over Rashford any day of the week.

Yes I can see the similarities between a player who scored 186 goals from open play in the PL, scored title winning goals, the winner in the CL semi vs Juventus, won every trophy going, multiple league titles, was one of the most committed players I've ever seen in a red shirt.....


And a bloke who's spend the last two seasons strolling round the pitch not giving a £#%&!.


A serial winner vs a serial loser.

Weird that trippers still hasn’t voted tbf

The speed and pace of the game has changed so much since the 90's it's like comparing apples to oranges, but....

No.

Andy Cole would have buried those chances Rashford had against Chelsea, he's not a number 9.

In some ways Rashford reminds me of Ryan Giggs on how they both had that break neck speed down the wing, eh...but no on that one to.

He reminds me of cantona

Who does?

I meant it in the effect he'd have on the team, when Cole was hot everyone was and I think its the same with Rashers. He hasn't come into his own yet, but I think he will, there's a world class footballer in there and he's a Manc and a lifelong red, so everyone can GTF.

Not looking good for you, I was sat next to Andy Cole's Dad at Forest when he was going through his bad period when he first joined, he missed maybe seven chances and his dad was nearly crying and I told him This boy is gonna come good.

You ever been to a united match?

That is interesting as we never played Forest in 1994/95 again after he joined...

At least fact check before telling a whopper.

His first season at united was painful. Looked dreadful and many had given up on him towards the end of that year. He then turned it round to his absolute credit.

Hopefully that where the similarities with Rashford are - difference for me is that Cole never gave up - chasing lost causes even when it wasn’t working. Rashford just gives up if it’s not going for him. Think Rashers needs a shrink rather than any other training.

Why the pile-on on trippers btw?

You are an idiot, I was at the game. I don't need to fact check anything, ever been to a game?

I can take a rejected argument off anyone who went to games. Rashers will be a great footballer, maybe not as good as Cole, but few are or will be.

Like something out of the Rubbernecker playbook.

Just needed to tell us that Dani Behr was sat on your other side and binned Giggsy off for a night on the town with you.

Loads, thanks. A shit load that season funnily enough...

I'll say it again. He didn't play against Forest after signing for us in 1994/95. Especially at OT as they beat us that year with Collymore scoring a worldie.

I suggest you look at the fixtures...

I’m pretty sure I’ve said on here several times I’ve been to plenty of games. HOWEVER, unsure how that has any relevance to this particular argument. If I hadn’t would it make me incapable of having opinions on footballers? Or making judgements etc.

When he gets that ball he's bound to score Marcus Marcus Rashford. No more discussion with OFTs

If he performs like that in the second half then we may need to try and stop the steal.
