Marcus Rashford handed fresh challenge by Erik ten Hag to ensure Manchester United success

Erik ten Hag has called on Marcus Rashford to keep his focus to ensure he maintains his goalscoring form.

Manchester United striker Rashford has 12 goals this season, including four in his last four games, and is back to his best after scoring just five last term. Despite his impressive return this season, Ten Hag feels Rashford has a tendency to lose his concentration at times and has urged the 25-year-old to stay focused throughout.

“First of all, keep the focus always,” said Ten Hag. ”It doesn't matter if you are in the game or not in the game - keep focusing on scoring the goal. A player like Marcus but others in our squad – Anthony Martial is the same - when they stay in the game, mentally, focused, 100 per cent concentration, they have the skills and only need one moment to change the game in a positive way.
