Marcus Rashford described Manchester United as “reactionary” and being in “No Man’s Land” – and called his club to “make a plan and stick to it”.
Rashford left United to join Barcelona on loan for the coming season after a similar spell and succeeded in Aston Villa for the second half of last season. It was after the striker was frozen from the first team of United by Ruben Amorim.
And now, Rashford has struck the club’s strategy in recent years – saying that the club had not yet started a transition because they have no recognizable playing style throughout the club.

Speaking on the Rest is football Podcast with Gary Lineker and Micah Richards of Sky Sports, Rashford said: “You see him with any team that has succeeded for a period of time: they have principles that any coach who arrives, any player who arrives, must align with these principles or be able to add to these principles.
“While sometimes I have the impression that United has just been: we are hungry to win, so we will always try to adapt and sign the players who correspond to this system. But it is reactionary.
“If your management is still changing, you can’t expect to be able to win the league. Yes, you could win cup tournaments, but it’s because you have a good trainer and you have good players and you have game winners in your team – you are not there by accident.
“We were well below where we judge United.

Speaking on the podcast of the football museum, the former Barcelona striker Gary Lineker shares his optimism for the proposed move of Marcus Rashford to the Catalan giants as he seeks to rekindle his form
“People say we have been in a transition for years. To be in transition, you must start the transition. It is therefore as if the real transition has not yet been launched.
“To start a transition, you have to make a plan and stand there. This is what I feel – it’s not easy. Because if it is not fine, fans ask (change).
“But that’s where I’m talking about being realistic with your situation. I have the impression that we have had as many different managers and different ideas and different strategies to win … You find yourself in the middle of – You find yourself in No Man’s Land.”
Rashford on Mourinho’s management style
Rashford also talked about the management skills of Jose Mourinho
Rashford also discussed which managers were the most influential of his career – citing Louis Van Gaal, Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as inspirations – but he omitted Amorim and his predecessor Erik Ten Hag.
The attacker also entered detail on Mourinho’s desire to win in United – regardless of how you played.
“They are different, but because we have had so many different managers, it is impossible for me to compare them,” added Rashford.
“Until Jose, I never had a manager who was so obsessed with the victory. Van Gaal was obsessed with victory, but he wanted to play a beautiful style of football. Jose didn’t care.
“Of course, if he could choose, he would like you to play well, but if you win, you win and go to the next match. He had this attitude.
“And it was confusing for me throughout my development at United, it was a question of playing a certain style and winning in a certain way.
“And at the beginning, I was angry all the time – because we had not played well and we won. But because we won and he is a manager who is just a winner, he did not mention the points you know about this last match. Because we won.
“But when we lost, he raised the points. After six months, I learned to respect him and collect the awards of him as a coach.”

Rashford also discussed the importance of the move to Barcelona in his chances of making the England World Cup team next summer.
The 27 -year -old was appointed to the new team of head coach Thomas Tuchel in March in March – but missed the June camp due to an injury.
“I try not to exert too much pressure on the configuration of England,” said the Barcelona striker. “This is clearly something I want to do.
“But you do not understand this without doing hard work right day after day. And showing hard work on the ground. It is a training effect on the things I will do day after day.
“This current group of English players is extremely talented, it will be disappointing if we cannot continue and do something really special because I think we have come a lot. In recent years, it is: the next step is to continue and win.”
Rashford also paid tribute to his former club villa – saying that the brief fate to the team of Unai Emery went “exactly how he was supposed to be” after fighting in United.
“The timing of me going to Villa, now looking back, it was the exact moment for me to do something like that,” he said. “The answer and reaction of what I got from clubs and fans was what I needed at that time.
“Six months later, I have the impression that everything is completely different. Everything I did at Villa, apart from the injury at the end, was exactly as it was.
