His second goal was very good, that first touch set up nicely for him. Thought he overplayed those flicks but can't complain when you attacker scores 2 goals.

Great first touch for the second goal. A striker with a first touch #NotForEveryone.
What more can one ask for. More of the same Rashy.
We love you Marcus.
Quality.
Quality finishing with penalty and the second goal. Very very inconsistent with his overall play though. Good performance.
His second goal was stunning really. Lovely run, better touch and great finish.
We understimate the pressure Rashford is under. He's a young man, local boy, and basically he's expected to carry our attack. Two goals today, including a perfectly taken penalty. Can't ask for more. Colour me very impressed.

He looks really dangerous when coming in from the left and interchanging with Martial. If they can keep that movement up, they'll be very hard to mark. Probably my MOTM today - his workrate was very high, committed defenders although some of his flicks in the final third didn't come through. Awesome start to the season.
Buried them when it mattered the most. An impressive performance.
Looked like a 250k a week player today, well in the second half. Hope this season brings some real consistency.
Virtually unsaveable penalty and great movement and finish for his second. He's got all the attributes to be top class. Fingers crossed for 20 plus goals this season.
Some people over the summer were genuinely trying to argue he's basically Danny Welbeck 
Had a good game. Great second goal. If he and Martial can get their interplay going rather than getting in each other's way, we will score many more goals.
Good energetic performance. My main criticism of him is his inability/lack of confidence with his left foot. Continually needing to cut inside to use his right served us well enough in the end but I'd like to see him add a little bit of variety with his weaker foot to keep defenders guessing. Hopefully Greenwood can work with him on it.
That touch after Pogba's pass was a beauty
Looked super interested to be talking to that muppet Carragher. Stupid idea for a player to have to do something like that after a game.
What about the finishing today? If he keeps decent form throughout the season he will easily score more than 15 goals in PL this season.
Could you imagine Danny Welbeck trying to control Pogba's pass. He would have fallen over even thinking about it.Some people over the summer were genuinely trying to argue he's basically Danny Welbeck
His all round ability isnt good enough for this system imo. Play him in a front two he'll be great. Took the goal really well and made zero mistakes with the pen. Love his attitude on the field though.
Delighted for him. Gets bucket loads of stick on here but his second goal was brilliant.
He was great today. Keep it up Marcus.
Glad he put that chance away after missing the exact same one against Inter (?) in pre season. He’s clearly worked on that exact run in pre season and it shows you the immaculate detail Ole and co have put into our attacking transitions.
He’s weaponized this attacking team

A lot better second half. His second goal was fantastic. From the run, to the touch, to the finish.
The control for the Pogba pass was great. And the finish was instinctual, something that’s been missing from his game for a while.
Hes such a confusing player. That first touch and finish for the second goal was sublime technique, but then he messes up some of the simple stuff over and over again
He needs to think less
Can't wait until he hits prime. Gonna be one hell of a striker for us years to come
Started nervously, and complicated things a bit too much. He was much better once he kept things simple. Good penalty, good second goal with a great touch and calm finish.
Also, would like to see him improve his finishing with his left foot and use it a bit more when he gets near or inside the box. He seems to try to cut inside a bit too much, and if he is going to play on the left, then he needs to learn to mix it up a bit, or teams will catch on to it.

Negatives: His overall game in the first half, excluding the brilliant penalty. His flicks.
Positives: Second goal was really well taken, great to see him convert a 1v1. Also worked really hard and didn't shoot from 50 yards.
Hopefully his 2 goals will give him a decent amount of confidence which will improve his game.
Big season ahead for Rashford and Martial!

Lovely first and second touch for his open play goal - coolness personified to pass it into the net. His acceleration and awareness to see the gap and then time his run perfectly was top class.
Happy for him, two well taken goals. Great run and timing for the second
Amazing movement and finishing in this second goal. Looked pretty lovely all the game. His pen was unstoppable too.
BTW, what was the meaning of his eagle celebration after the pen? I get why Shaq or Xhaka are doing it when they score against serbia, but Rashford?
Thought his second goal was very like Michael Owen in his pomp. Brilliant way to kick off the season for him, keep it up Marcus lad.
Brilliant penalty.
The second goal was top class - run, touch and instinctive finish.
Like Pogba, he is a better player when he keeps it simple.

Doubt much thought goes into it, probably saw an eagle in a trap shit hop video and liked it.BTW, what was the meaning of his eagle celebration after the pen? I get why Shaq or Xhaka are doing it when they score against serbia, but rashford?
Great performance today, so glad he's up and running as a dodgy start from him could have had serious consequences for our season.
Tempted to have him MotM, but went with Pogba.
Excellent performance.
