Rashford: Liverpool are bigger rivals to Man United than Man City are

Manchester United faced Liverpool earlier this week during their pre-season tour in Thailand, where Erik Ten Hag’s side beat the Premier League runners-up 4-0. The friendly result was a far cry from United’s recent form against their arch-rivals. Last season they suffered humiliation at Old Trafford as Liverpool ran riot with a 5-0 win – which included a hat-trick for Mohammed Salah. The Red Devils didn’t fair much better in the return fixture either as they were soundly beaten 4-0 at Anfield.And it just seems that the Man United fans see the rivalry against Liverpool much more intense than their disliking of town rivals Manchester City. the Red Devils’ own Marcus Rashford shares such a belief. The 24-year-old was appearing on an episode of UNINTERRUPTED alongside Academy Award winner Daniel Kaluuya and NBA legend LeBron James, and spoke about United’s biggest rivals.rashford is a proper manchester ladpic.twitter.com/VxODWNiBo4— ⚡ (@UTDCJ_) July 15, 2022 The England star claimed there’s no real reason to dislike Pep Guardiola’s men – but said he was not a fan of City either.Instead, Rashford admits that he directs his dislike at United’s old foes Liverpool and puts the rivalry down to the bitter history that exists between the two clubs.’Yeah, Liverpool. I don’t like Liverpool. City. Liverpool have history, so it’s a bit more bitter,’ Rashford said during the show.’But with City, it’s like you don’t like them, but you don’t have a massive reason not to like them.’You just grow up, and it’s two Manchester sides. One wears light blue; one wears red.’His heart stopped a year ago, and today he became the heart of United’s midfieldRashford singled out Anfield when asked about which grounds he dislikes visiting the most in the Premier League.The forward has scored four goals against the Reds in his career, but is yet to find the net at the home of Jurgen Klopp’s men.’Liverpool is like both,’ said Rashford. ‘Their fans can take the game away from you. If you let them, they can take it away from you.’My first game at Anfield, I almost got sent off straight away and I’m not a malicious player – I wouldn’t try and hurt someone on purpose.’##NAJAVA_MECA_6508169##
