Since Marcus Rashford’s begun his fight against child poverty, there has barely been anything negative to say about him.
Marcus Rashford MBE! The young 23-year-old is displaying age is nothing but a number and life experiences defined the type of adult you are to become in this world.
The Manchester United forward has been at the forefront in the fight against hunger and has been so brilliant at using his platform as a professional footballer, an entire country, continent, as well as people from across the globe, has gotten behind him.

It has been nothing but pure joy to witness considering everything happening to us in 2020. When things are this gloomy with the future showing no promise, it is important to have a light shine through the darkness, that which Rashford has been, and show us there are still many positives to hold onto.
The fact he got the UK government to change their scheme, speaks volumes. Sadly, there will always be that one “Carran” in the world that will pour poison on a good vibe.
Like the infamous “Sun” outlet (an outlet that we do not like to mention cause we give them airtime when we do) the Daily Mail have really painted some of England’s top talents in a bad light, especially those of colour — most recently being Marcus Rashford.
Ok, so let’s address this. I’m 23. I came from little. I need to protect not just my future but my family’s too. To do that I made a decision at the beg of 2020 to start investing more in property. Please don’t run stories like this alongside refs to ‘campaigning’. pic.twitter.com/coqla2i19d

What must a player do to get a break?
This is how funny the world works. If a footballer earns £100k-per-week, ends his career as a footballer over 30-years-old (because that’s the career expectancy of a footballer at the highest level), then becomes bankrupt, he would be considered a failure in life… Is that not so?
Now when a footballer spends money on their family while investing in their own future, plus fighting the good fight, they are considered ballers/splashing their cash on lavish things/showing off, the list goes on.
But what they will never get labelled as successful and doing life the right way. This is exactly what the Daily Mail has done with Rashford.
And like Marcus being Marcus responded in the best manner possible. He let it be known, having come from very little, he wants to make sure his family for years to come will never need to experience that hardships he faced as a kid.
“Some people have a problem with young black men having money.”

“You have to question the moral fibre of the journalists who wrote this.”
“Those trying to undermine him should be ashamed of themselves.”

Many siding with Rashford
Max Rushden, talking on @talkSPORT radio, sets the record straight in saying it how it is, and saying it out LOUD! There is just a different narrative when it comes to colour and it has been seeing previously.
It’s the year 2020 and this is what we still have to accommodate? A truly sad reality we live in. The fact of the matter is, we could all nicely take a page out of the 23-year-old’s book and do a bit of good in our life.
Be happy a young adult at his age is using his money and investing in his family’s future and not blowing it all at once.
