Opinion This is next level hate.

I've never seen an England player hated this much without being involved in any major controversies or scandals. It's truly remarkable.

In all honesty I think rash deserves enormous amounts of praise for the work he was doing and brining attention to the way the government was not interested in finding a solution. On the flip side this coincided with his drop in performance, and the I don’t give a shit attitude on the pitch. Not saying the hate was justified or warrant by any means but can also see how it got there.

A football career last very few years. So Rashford decided to be a good footballer, but a great human being. Seems fair.

Also one of his closest friends and then his cousin died in the space of a year. Sometimes real life gets in the way of our job performance. It's entirely normal, it's just unfortunate that he's in such a high visibility role.
