Manchester United United legend Nicky Butt has had his say on the current form of Erik ten Hag’s aside and Red Devils star Marcus Rashford. 

The Class of 92 star has previously worked closely with Marcus Rashford with the former treble winner being involved in the academy set-up at Old Trafford.

Butt will be aware of the pressure of coming through as an academy player and becoming a key member of the starting XI.

It has been a tough year for Rashford who has struggled to re-create the form he showed in Ten Hag’s first season in charge.

The England star managed to score 30  goals in the 2022/23 season but has not managed to replicate that form.

Speaking to TalkSport, Butt said: “I do believe and people will be screaming down the phone now probably but I do believe he’s still got the talent to be one of the best top players in the world.

“He’s just not clicking for the last few years at Man United, you’re always saying he’s just going to do it, he’s going to do it but it’s looking like maybe it’s time for a change for him.

“No one really knows what his mentality is, but there’s a lot of talent within that man and he’s a top, top footballer.

“But it’s just not happening for Man United now, people always point to the fact of his body language, he doesn’t care, I can tell you now he does care, he’s a proper lad but he’s just not clicking for him.
