Roy Keane finally changes his mind on Marcus Rashford after "smiling" jibe

Roy Keane has heaped praise on Marcus Rashford’s run of form at Manchester United - and has seemingly changed his mind on his mindset.

Keane did not hold back in his criticism of the striker last season, criticising Rashford for smiling too much following a late-season draw against Chelsea last April and then claiming that he plays like a child the following game as the England international lost his place in the team.

Rashford’s form last season nosedived, netting just five goals across all competitions – having netted 43 times across the previous two campaigns. Now aged 25, Rashford is in the form of his life with 18 goals in 29 appearances – including 10 in his last 10, after netting in Wednesday’s three-goal EFL Cup semi-final win at Nottingham Forest.
