Marcus Rashford admits he wasn't in the right headspace last season after his match-winning display for Manchester United against West Ham.
The 24-year-old netted his seventh goal of the season, his 100th for the club, when he headed in emphatically from Christian Eriksen's cross into the box.
It marked another fine display from Rashford, who has already scored two more goals than he managed throughout the entirety of the last campaign.

Rashford's performances have revitalised hopes of going to the World Cup with England next month and after his latest impressive display he was asked what has changed for him this season.
"It's a completely different energy around the club and the training ground," he told Sky Sports. "That puts me in a better headspace and I just feel really motivated now. That's the area I was struggling in.
"I was struggling at times with more mental things. It wasn't really my own performance but other things off the pitch. That's the biggest difference from last season.
"I get that it's your job to speak about what happens on the pitch, but for the players, we have to get into the right headspace for every game.
"Too often last season, I wasn't in the right headspace for games. I wasn't surprised by some of the stuff that was happening."
