Rashford could play on the right fine as part of a front three, but if it's a 4231 and he's expected to keep width it's a waste.

I know it's a boring comparison but Mbappe plays as a right sided forward in a 433 for PSG, the full back provides the width.

We could do similar with Rashford, although I prefer the option of Rashford on the left with Martial in behind Lukaku with Mkhi or Mata on the right.

Craving to see him and Martial have a run in the team together like in 15/16.

His shooting is amazing, far better than Pogba wjo is already lauded to become our best shooter ever based on pretty much nothing. Rashford technique is special, hopefully his 1 on 1 finishing can improve too.

Kept on trying that throughout the match. Been very good in the second half too.

Not a very good shot, just horrible goalkeeping. Kudos for trying though.

No idea why the keeper didn't compose himself after those corners
Aye. He was the only one that recognized the GK's insecurity though and kept pressing the issue all night. The corners were part of it. I wouldn't give all the credit to the GK.

I'm not sure how much of it was recognized, i assume it was a strategy to put tall players next to him and aim close for all corners, he doesn't have the body strength or height to deal with it

I'll be pissed if this is related to the injury he's been carrying.

Yeah, maybe. Mata wasn't doing it from the other side though. He's just too nice a guy, I suppose.

Doesn’t look good, Rashford is the type of player that wouldn’t want to come off unless it’s something pretty bad

You're nude pictures of Martial are poking out of your pocket again.

Thought he was a bit inconsistent but got the all important goal. Would love to see Martial and Rashford on the pitch. Boy, would that be fun.

How on earth is it a good shot, a not shit goalkeeper either holds it easily or just knocks it over to a corner.
So anything that doesn't go in is a shit shot. Quality logic.

If the keeper has to knock it out for a corner, then its a good shot isn't it? duh.

Hopefully it's nothing serious, but didn't look like it when he removed his shin pad.
