Man like Marcus

He's got a bit of the Mark Robins about him.

I agree with what Neville said yesterday about people doubting his future at the club and saying he should be starting the whole time. They're talking nonsense.

And no, that wasn't me firing a shot at you before anyone asks

I know, pal

Not sure how many people think he should be starting the whole time. But the stat about him not starting since December was quite telling. It's not like he started in Seville or at Huddersfield in the cups either. It's also a shame that it's invariably him or Martial. Both are special talents, we should be building a side longer term with both. For me that would be stronger proof that Mou sees himself staying.

"Right now, I'm probably not learning the most on the pitch," Rashford said. "In training is where I'm doing most of my learning.

"You have to take it into the game and today [Saturday] it worked. Personally, taking the confidence from this game into the next games is important.

"There's lots of things (I'm learning). It is just the all-round game is starting to become more clear.

"Things this manager wants are becoming more clear to me. The more you do, the easier the results come on the pitch."

Major subby fired from young Rashers. Very interesting.

But they weren't up front so they don't count.

Scrub off his goals from the weekend too. Disgusting how he had cut inside from the left like that.

He’s 10th in minutes played. 12th before Saturday. No to get too technical about actual playing time etc.

He's been bang out of form for a while now, that could (and should) be why he hasn't started games.

Mourinho has made sure he still gets game time, allowing him to regain his confidence out of the spotlight, and pow: starts and scores a brace against Liverpool.

It's also true that his pace causes murders for tired defences late in games. Ideal 2nd half sub. Same for Martial.

He's 20. This will likely continue for a few seasons so buckle up.

Not surprising given his age tbf.

Can't accuse Mourinho of not keeping him involved, I've actually been quite impressed that he hasn't taken him out for long periods. Of course that may change a bit now Sanchez is here and seems as nailed on for 90 minutes every week as Lukaku and Zlatan before him. Would be nice to see him up top, through the middle occasionally.

Still feel like we're light in attacking options btw. Saturday there was very little on the bench with only Martial out, and the options we do have all play in the same place and do similar things..

So he's a regular first teamer then.

He will be much lower than 10th since Alexis arrived tbf. No start since Boxing Day etc.

Just keeping it factual.
