Marcus Rashford

21-year-old Rashford continues to show fantastic ability whilst playing at the highest level for his club and country.

The speed that he plays with makes him a frightening prospect and he is surely well on track to being one of England’s biggest stars of the future.

Cleared to play today after picking up a slight knock against Liverpool, Rashford has nine goals and seven assists in the league after also benefiting from Solskjaer’s management.

Whether starting from the off or coming off the bench, he will be a real threat to Saints today and will need to be watched carefully.
