Marcus Rashford came out publicly to appreciate those that believed in him and intentionally left out Manchester United.
Manchester United did not believe in you when they handed you £325k a week salary.
The grass is not always greener on the other side. Rashford deserves whatever treatment he is getting from United fans.
