Poor attitudes in football

Iv just seen someone suggesting Rashford 'doesn't look interested' and it got me wondering if this perception is part of a bigger problem for fans,.pundits and the media.

Morrison, Martial, Zaha, Lingard, Greenwood, Sancho, Rashford, have all been accused of having poor attitudes whilst at United.

Same goes for Sturridge, Sterling, and I'm sure there are others Black / mixed heritage players that have been labelled the same at other clubs.

Is this a racial stereotype, or is something else to blame? I can't think of many non Black players who are as readily accused of this.

To clarify fellas, this isn't me condoning this behaviour. Far from it. I'm trying to discuss if fans (on here, in the wider world and match going) have a bias (conscious or not) towards non Black players.

Just bare it in mind next time you hear criticism of a players attitude, and if the same judgement is made of White players.

Racial bias from football fans? Outrageous. No history of that whatsoever

Greenwood: get rid

De Gea and Ronaldo: pin drop

A very fair point to make.

Have you considered that the laziness and race are related???

It could be that they are black because they are lazy?

For example, Michael Jackson was one of the hardest working musicians the world has known and through hard work and lack of laziness he went from black to white. If he had been lazy then he would have remained black.

Sometimes there is a a connection there but we are just too scared to say it.

Talking of Rashford, that was the car he crashed.
