I think the only thing that could have gone better is that dink that came back off the bar going in. He's showing massive improvement and that's all you can ask.
Absolutely rapid there. He's stepped up a level in the last couple of games and been unplayable at times.
Him and Sterling are nailed on to be flanking Kane.He is starting to put it together. Gareth Southgate is going to have a hard time deciding who will flank Kane in the euros if Rashford continues like this
Only mark againat him yesterday was that awful 1 on 1 where fre put him through. That is very rashford. He just lacks a little bit of consistency. A joy to watch at the moment though.One more goal vs top 6, good play to win penalty but that shot that hit the bar was just excellent. Ronaldinhoesque.
Very true. Said players then become shite once they wear a Man Utd shirt.This place is always about envying other team's players, pretending they're faultless while our own are turds.
The lower teams already do when they park the bus, and he's scored a couple against those as well.We're going to see teams double up on him more and more... So will be a new challenge for him, but I'll back him to come out on top.
He won’t have a hard time at all. It will be even easier if, as you said, Rashford continues like this.He is starting to put it together. Gareth Southgate is going to have a hard time deciding who will flank Kane in the euros if Rashford continues like this
We have threats all over the pitch, more so when Pogba returns. Teams won’t be able to double up on anyone.We're going to see teams double up on him more and more... So will be a new challenge for him, but I'll back him to come out on top.
Haven't seen opposition defenders panic as much when someone from our lot is attacking then since Ronaldo
I think James is one of the main reasons teams can't double up on anyone of our attack, you can't allow him space. Martial's hold up play is also on another level compared to Lukaku's, our attack has incredible potential.We have threats all over the pitch, more so when Pogba returns.

Well if you get the RW to do it then you're banking on our LB not being up to much... Which is a gamble you could probably take.We have threats all over the pitch, more so when Pogba returns. Teams won’t be able to double up on anyone.
I have him as 7.0 average rating, for what it's worth.14 goals 4 assist in 21 matches Caf average 5.5 . Maybe now a few more people will come around to his obvious quality. The real deal and his stats since coming into the team are all the more remarkable considering the squad's management and general level for those years. We are lucky to have such a homegrown talent.

Thankfully for the first time in a while we have credible accross the front 3 with James and Martial give them 2 space it's game over.We're going to see teams double up on him more and more... So will be a new challenge for him, but I'll back him to come out on top.

Totally agree with this. James' movement and terrifying acceleration really open things up for us in a way that we've lacked for years. Even though James isn't as effective on the right individually, having him out there creates a lot of room for the other 2, and in theory late runs by a midfielder when Pogba returns.I think James is one of the main reasons teams can't double up on anyone of our attack, you can't allow him space.

Every player misses chances though, difference is we are creating more now so that missed chances is not hurting us much.Only mark againat him yesterday was that awful 1 on 1 where fre put him through. That is very rashford. He just lacks a little bit of consistency. A joy to watch at the moment though.
Abaolutely. I just think that sort of brain fart (because he shinned it out of play really, it was awful) is the last bit he needs to improve. In some games a chance like that will be more important than yesterday.Every player misses chances though, difference is we are creating more now so that missed chances is not hurting us much.
To illustrate this point, I just cane from the Vardy thread and there is a poster who couldn't help himself but take swings at Rashford and Martial while drooling over Vardy. This is despite Rashford's current form being some of the best in Europe.Very true. Said players then become shite once they wear a Man Utd shirt.
This. Despite people always underrating our attack and pretending they're made of turd, the truth is we have one of the strongest attack in the league blessed with pace and technic. Most coaches don't want to play against such attack and are fearful of it.We have threats all over the pitch, more so when Pogba returns. Teams won’t be able to double up on anyone.
The problem is the lack of depth all over the park and not buying a proper goalscoring no.10 in the summer tbf. That gives you the luxury of playing Pogba deep, out wide, no.10 or not at all. Instead there's not much competition or cover anywhere really.This.

Problem this season has mostly been in midfield with Pogba injury and Perreira being horrendous. Bring Pogba back and keep that pivot of Fred and Scott and we have a good midfield to go with our attack.
Because most of the people here are quick to bury our own players whilst happy to talk up other teams mediocre players.14 goals 4 assist in 21 matches Caf average 5.5 .

A 5.5 rating would be generous for his performances as a 9 during the period Martial was injured.14 goals 4 assist in 21 matches Caf average 5.5 .

Exactly.Because most of the people here are quick to bury our own players whilst happy to talk up other teams mediocre players.
Martial and Rashford are both main "victims" for that. In other teams they'd be loved far more. But here there are complaints about them if they've a great match. For martial it's work rate and for Rashford it's decision making.Exactly.
He's sensational at the moment but I'd imagine those ratings mostly come from his stint at striker when Martial was injured, which was admittedly poor.5.5 score for the best striker just shows how miserable life most posters have.They show the frustrations by attacking players, as if MU is responsible for their happiness.
