British Pundit and former Manchester United defender, Gary Neville, has urged
Marcus Rashford to focus on reviving his career at Spanish club, Barcelona, instead of aiming a dig at his parent club.

He gave the advice on Sky Sports while reacting to the striker’s recent criticism of Man United’s management.

Rashford was again loaned out this season; this time, he was shipped to La Liga giants, Barcelona on a season long loan.

However, while speaking with ‘The Rest is Football’ podcast recently, the England international criticized Man United for sacking managers at the slightest provocation.

According to him, the decisions brought about instability at the Premier League club and it is majorly responsible for the  problem at Old Trafford.

He further asked the Red Devils hierarchy to take a cue from Liverpool and Manchester City, who keep their managers and allow them the time to change things at the clubs.

Reacting to Rashford’s outburst,
Neville pointed out that the striker had enough time to make an impact at Old Trafford.

He went on to advise him to start focusing on his new club, Barcelona.

He said, “Let’s ignore that, because I don’t want to go into Marcus Rashford comments tonight.

“He was there at the club for 10 years and had his opportunity to impact the club. Ruben Amorim, this year, I think will do a good job. Marcus should concentrate on Barcelona.”

Rashford played under five different managers at Manchester United since making his senior team debut in 2016.

They include Louis van Gaal, Jose Mourinho, Ole Gunnar Solskjær, Erik ten Hag, and Ruben Amorim.
