A couple of times during the Southampton game Rashford had a chance on his left foot and the finish didn't look particularly confident for a #9. I ended up looking into the stats of his goals as well as various players in the "Big 6" and main strikers of other teams.
Not saying there's a great deal of insight here, but might be interesting. Spurs' attack is impressively two-footed.
Data:
transfermarkt.com, player goal stats, filtered by left-footed shot and right-footed shot in "Manner of goal". I don't think this includes set pieces / penalties / tap-ins(?) and obviously not headers. I think this way is more indicative than including dead balls. For Rashford, Martial & Lingard, I've manually checked their international goals (9 total, ignoring 1 tap-in). Not ruling out some mistakes in my collection.
Key:
Dom % = dominant foot % of goals
Right = total right-footed goals
Left = total left-footed goals
