McTominay is one of the many United players who have started to impress after leaving Old Trafford after winning the Serie A player of the year as well as the league title with Napoli.
United cannot be blamed
Despite so many stars excelling as soon as they leave the club, the Scotsman has spoken to CBS Sports about how the club are too easy to blame when comparing performances.
"It's too easy of an excuse to say, 'Oh they left Man United, and now they're doing well.' In my last year, I did well - I scored 10 goals and we won a trophy.
"Because the spotlight is directly on you, it makes it seem a lot worse, in my opinion. Obviously, when players go away and they play more games, they're going to have an increase in confidence and feel better about themselves rather than playing less minutes at Man United for example.
“But when you are at Man United, you have to earn those minutes like Bruno Fernandes, who has done incredible."
Rashford is a different subject
Finishing 18th in the running for the 2025 Ballon d'Or, McTominay also commented on Rashford, who is loving life in La Liga with Barcelona whilst on loan with an option to buy in the summer.
McTominay says the England star is a top player, but the club cannot be blamed for his poor form before falling out with manager Ruben Amorim.
"With Marcus, obviously there were different issues which might have transpired that we won't go into.
"However, Marcus is a top player and he's always been a top player, he's one of the club legends, he's scored so many goals for Man United, done so many great things.”
United cashed in on McTominay for a reported £26M in what looks like a bargain deal for Napoli who are chasing down the title once again under manager Antonio Conte.

Goals win you games, Scotty is not Iniesta or De Bryne, he’s Scotty. Napoli bought him because for being Scotty and he contributed immensely for their league triumph. If you don’t like Scotty’s type of play I understand but underrating a whole Series A MVP is not fair judgement, are you saying all football analysts who vote for him are clueless about his ability, talent and contribution.
maybe everyone should start running into the box with strikers let's see who create the chances 🤡

This average player won serie a with napoli last season and was the bloody MVP of the entire damn season.
he won it because he was scoring goals,the work of a midfielder isn't to score goals , this days some of you understand nothing other than putting the ball into the net clown 🤡

this one is now talking about rashford like he is some kinda of retired midfield legend, mactomany is still an average player who doesn't know what to do with the ball in his position,they are those players like Jude who flocks into the bus to look relevant because they couldn't do their main work in their main position, without goals mactomany is empty
And he is better than Rashford right now
