The most recent episode of ‘The Shop’ has aired, and it has generated quite a buzz amongst fans. LeBron James and Maverick Carter have been hosting the show for a few years now, and each time they are joined by renowned individuals from various fields.

This time was no exception, as the guest list was littered with stars. Marcus Rashford, Manchester United’s soccer sensation, was among them. The young gun has amassed a sizable fan base in recent years with his brilliance on the soccer field.

LeBron James and Maverick Carter both enjoy watching soccer and are ardent Liverpool fans. In fact, both are stakeholders in the English soccer club. Marcus Rashford, however, did not hold back in expressing his disdain for Liverpool. Carter asked him about the team he hates. He stated Liverpool is the team he despises, but Manchester City gave him no reason to hate them.

“I don?t like Liverpool, (Manchester) City,” he said. “Obviously, Liverpool have history so it?s a bit more bitter but with City, you don?t like them but you don?t really have a massive reason not to like them. You just grow up and it?s just two Manchester sides; one wears light blue, one wears red but the rivalry with Liverpool, it?s deep,” he added.

Interestingly, Liverpool and Manchester United share one of the fiercest rivalries in soccer history. The two soccer heavyweights’ rivalry dates back several decades and runs deeper than just soccer.
