Marcus Rashford ‘shocked Coventry players with Sky Blues stars feeling sympathy for Man Utd fans’

But Rashford, 26, was substituted before extra time following a disappointing display as some Man Utd fans booed him off the pitch.

And according to Manchester Evening News, a number of Coventry players were “startled” by the England forward’s display.

One unnamed player even “sympathised” with Man Utd fans as he felt Rashford could have had an impact on the game but spent much of it on the periphery.

The Man Utd man has endured a difficult campaign, scoring just eight times and providing five assists in 40 appearances.

That is a huge drop off from his 30 goals and 40 goal contributions last season.

He has also been criticised for two off-field incidents – the first of which was attending a nightclub after his side’s 3-0 derby defeat to Manchester City in November.

He then also received backlash and was fined for calling in sick to training after a night out in Belfast in January.

Manager Erik ten Hag has revealed he is a doubt for Wednesday’s clash with Sheffield United.

It comes after he was seen limping following Man Utd’s FA Cup win.

He has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford this summer, with Paris Saint-Germain thought to be in pursuit.

But SunSport exclusively revealed earlier this month that the Ligue 1 giants have no interest in signing him.
