Marcus Rashford has long harboured ambitions of leading the line as Manchester United's No.9 - and he could get the chance to stake a claim in his favoured spot after making his feelings clear to Erik ten Hag.
According to reports, Rashford was deployed in a central attacking role against Liverpool after reiterating his desire to be played down the middle during a meeting last week where United players were given the platform to air any grievances.
As outlined by The Sun, Ten Hag responded to Rashford by pledging to give him a chance in the coveted No.9 spot - and his decision to do so was immediately vindicated by the United academy graduate, who plundered the decisive goal in a 2-1 win to cap an electric individual performance.
