Competition Heats Up: Southgate Prefers Gordon and Maddison, Leaving Rashford on the Sidelines

Gareth Southgate mostly overlooked an out of form Marcus Rashford in recent friendlies, opting to give opportunities to other players like Anthony Gordon, Jarrod Bowen and James Maddison. Rashford struggled in the limited game time he received with Southgate preferring Gordon and Maddison for their impact on the field.

Southgate emphasized the competition for places in the squad, indicating Rashford vulnerability. However, Southgate responses regarding Rashford situation were vague, suggesting uncertainty. Rashford performance contrasts with his previous successes but his talent remains undeniable leaving his future role in the team open to speculation.
