Alan Shearer has singled out Marcus Rashford as one of four Manchester United players he accused of ‘giving up’ in the 1-0 defeat against Newcastle.
Anthony Gordon scored the only goal of the game at St James’ Park on Saturday night as United suffered their sixth loss in 14 Premier League outings this season.
The scoreline flattered the visitors who delivered a dismal performance and were comprehensively outfought and outplayed over the course of an embarrassingly one-sided affair.
Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Shearer suggested the manner of the defeat spoke volumes for the attitude of some United players.
‘I thought they were a mess, I thought they were terrible,’ he said.
‘I thought their attitude was awful and it highlighted some of the really bad attitudes they clearly have.
‘When it’s tough and when it’s hard, you see the players who want to play for you and you see the players who want to support you as a manager and as a fan.
