Former Man Utd midfielder Nicky Butt thinks Marcus Rashford would benefit from a change of scenery in order to fulfill his potential.
The Red Devils forward failed to make an impact as with Rashford staying on the pitch for the full match.
There were very few players who had a good game against their arch-rivals but some supporters again picked out Rashford as one of the worst players on the pitch.
When Butt, who played for Man Utd between 1992 and 2004, was asked what had happened to Rashford, : I don t know and it s actually sad watching that because I ve known Marcus since he was probably eight and nine at Man United coming through and he s always been the one that you hold hope for.
“I do believe and people will be screaming down the phone now probably but I do believe he s still got the talent to be one of the best top players in the world.
“He s just not clicking for the last few years at Man United, you re always saying he s just going to do it, he s going to do it but it s looking like maybe it s time for a change for him.
“No one really knows what his mentality is, but there s a lot of talent within that man and he s a top, top footballer.
“But it s just not happening for Man United now, people always point to the fact of his body language, he doesn t care, I can tell you now he does care, he s a proper lad but he s just not clicking for him.
“Maybe it is time to go and find a club where he can get a bit of a deep breath, the eyes aren t on him all the time.
“He s the excuse for all the fans, all the fans look at him and it s not just him, the whole team, the whole squad needs to up the game.”

Joshua Zirkzee, Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, Manuel Ugarte and Noussair Mazraoui all arrived during the summer as INEOS look to make Man Utd into title challengers again.
But Butt has not been convinced that they have a plan , he added: I don t see a plan in the project, in the signings, I don t understand what kind of players they re going for.
They ve got a whole new set up at Man United in the recruitment and how they go and buy players.
