Manchester United treble winner claims Casemiro and Rashford wouldn't get into 1999 side

Manchester United treble winner Andy Cole insists neither Marcus Rashford nor Casemiro would get into the 1999 starting line-up despite their brilliant current form.

Rashford is undoubtedly enjoying the best form of his career at United, with 16 goals in 17 games since returning from the World Cup more than anyone else across Europe's top five leagues. The forward's purple patch has taken him to 24 for the season - already a record for him with more than three months to spare.

Casemiro has been pivotal to the turn of fortunes that has seen Erik ten Hag's side go from consecutive defeats against Brighton and Brentford to a likely third-placed finish and the chance at silverware in the Carabao Cup this Sunday. The Brazilian, who turned 31 on Thursday, has brought leadership and experience to a squad that has lacked such qualities for so long.
