Marcus Rashford’s loan spell at Aston Villa has rekindled debates about his footballing prowess. With a potential £40 million transfer looming, Villa must assess whether Rashford's current form justifies such an investment. His underwhelming stint at Manchester United left many doubting his capabilities, while recent performances—marked by four assists—have sparked some optimism among Villa fans. As he approaches his 10th appearance for Villa, his contribution will be pivotal in deciding his future, amidst differing opinions from coaches and fans alike.
Is Marcus Rashford really on the way back to his best form at Aston Villa? Or has his recall to the England team given a false impression of the forward's form since escaping his Manchester United misery on loan in January?
Rashford, 27, is set to make his 10th appearance for Villa in their FA Cup quarterfinal away to EFL Championship team Preston North End on Sunday.
Few players divide opinion as much as Rashford. If there are doubters and believers, Amorim and his Old Trafford predecessor, Erik ten Hag, are firmly in the 'doubters' camp.
United supporters, frustrated by Rashford's failure to justify his huge salary, would point to his lack of consistency, goal threat or team-play prior to his move to Villa.
