How Man United legends can rally around Rashford after his booze shame: Wayne Rooney battled drink issues and a prostitute scandal, Rio Ferdinand lost eight crucial months after missing drug test and David Beckham was no stranger to tabloid front pages

Marcus Rashford's so-called 'party lifestyle' has come under a bright spotlight this week after details of the Manchester United star's '12-hour tequila bender' in Belfast emerged.

The forward rang in sick for training on Friday after two nights out in Northern Ireland and was dropped for United's FA Cup win over Newport County on Sunday.

The club said Rashford had 'accepted responsibility' for his actions but concerns remain his drinking habits could derail a career that has shown such promise.

Rashford burst onto the scene as an 18-year-old at Old Trafford and was quickly catapulted to fame as his United and England career accelerated.
