Marcus Rashford’s personal life and resurgence on the pitch have become a hot topic for Manchester United fans, with many attributing his recent form to his rumored new girlfriend, Grace Jackson. Following a difficult 2023/24 season under Erik ten Hag, during which Rashford struggled to find his best form and was ultimately left out of England’s Euro 2024 squad, the forward appears to have turned a corner under new manager Ruben Amorim.
Since Amorim’s arrival, Rashford has netted three goals in three matches, prompting speculation among United fans that his improved performances may also be linked to Grace Jackson. The pair have reportedly been spotted on several dates in recent weeks, as reported by The Mirror, and Grace’s social media accounts have been flooded with positive messages from United supporters. https://www.sportbible.com/football/football-news/man-utd/marcus-rashford-man-united-news-917542-20241203#:~:text=The%20Mirror%2C%20Rashford%20and%20Grace
Fans have taken to Instagram to thank her, with comments such as:
- “We United fans love you, thanks for fixing Rashford, much love towards you and him!”
- “Thank you for bringing back real Rashford.”
- “You fixed Rashy, man, God bless you.”
This lighthearted theory has added a romantic twist to Rashford’s revival, with many embracing the idea that Jackson has had a calming and positive influence on his life.
Meanwhile, Rashford has also spoken about the impact of Ruben Amorim’s fresh tactical approach at United. The forward praised the new system, saying it has injected energy and excitement into the team:
“It’s encouraging for us to learn something new, and I feel like we can be a lot stronger in this system as well. Also, for other teams, we’ve not played in this system before, no one knows what to expect from us, and it puts us in a good position.” https://www.sportbible.com/football/football-news/man-utd/marcus-rashford-man-united-news-917542-20241203#:~:text=Also%2C%20for%20other%20teams%2C%20we%27ve%20not%20played
Rashford emphasized the versatility within the squad and the tactical flexibility Amorim’s setup provides, which has seemingly reignited his confidence. While fans enjoy theorizing about Grace’s influence, Rashford will look to continue his upward trajectory on the field when Manchester United face Arsenal at the Emirates on Wednesday night.
