If Manchester United are to get the best out of Marcus Rashford again this forthcoming season, the secret to it could be to deploy him on the left-wing.
That is because former United manager Jose Mourinho, who spent two-and-a-half years in charge at Old Trafford, believes that is where the academy graduate is at his best. Rashford was a regular fixture during Mourinho's tenure in M16, making a total of 125 appearances under the guidance of the Portuguese chief, scoring 28 goals and grabbing 21 assists.
He has played in every role across United's trademark front-three, earning ample opportunities on the right-wing, left-wing and through the middle as an out-and-out striker. United want to add a new striker to their ranks this summer following the departure of Edinson Cavani, suggesting that Erik ten Hag has plans to deploy Rashford as a wide player.
