Marcel Sabitzer was keen to praise Manchester United teammate Jadon Sancho after the England international scored in the Premier League win over Leicester City on Sunday.
Erik ten Hag's men cruised to 3-0 victory over Brendan Rodgers' men at Old Trafford, with Rashford (2) and Sancho both on the scoresheet for home side. The Reds were lucky to be level at the half-time break, but the home side came out of the blocks firing in the second half and were worthy winners in the end.
Leicester had several chances to take the lead in the first half, but David de Gea was in superb form for United and made two spectacular saves to deny the visitors. Meanwhile, Sancho impressed after coming off the bench and grabbed his fifth goal of the campaign - and his second since his return to the fold.

The 25-year-old, who missed the previous few months of action after spending time away from the first-team, came on at half time against the Foxes. He got on the scoresheet in the 61st minute after combining well with Bruno Fernandes. As he ran away to celebrate, he was immediately mobbed by his teammates.
Sancho has now registered five goals and one assists in 19 appearances in all competitions this season, and he will be aiming to continue contributing in front of goal after being reintegrated to the squad by Ten Hag. After the game, United posted a photo of Sancho on Instagram.
Reds midfielder Sabitzer, who only joined the club in January, was quick to react to the post, commenting an explosive emoji and a rocket emoji.
United fans were also keen to praise the attacker for his contribution against Leicester, with several supporters expressing their happiness about his return to action. Here's how some Reds reacted on Instagram...
