According to sources, Rooney was speaking at an event in Manchester over the weekend, when he criticized Rashford’s attitude, despite the fact that the 24-year-old has only scored five goals in 26 appearances in all competitions this season.
Rooney specifically mentions his goal-scoring record at United, which he set after a storied career that saw him score 253 goals between 2004 and 2017.
“To get the record and be United’s highest goal scorer is f***ing massive,” Rooney apparently commented.
“What I hope is that Marcus Rashford f*cking gets his head out of his a*se and goes and breaks that record. He is a Manchester lad.”

“I want to be Manchester United manager. I know I am not ready now but I have to plan everything I do to make sure one day it will happen.”
