Marcus Rashford: Manchester United caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes striker is in the form of his life
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hailed the impact Marcus Rashford is having on Manchester United games after their 2-1 win at home to Brighton.Rashford scored a lovely goal to put the Red Devils 2-0 up and caused their opponents numerous problems as Solskjaer made it seven wins from his opening seven games as Manchester United caretaker boss.4

Rashford has five goals in his last six league matches for United

The 21-year-old England international, who expertly turned away from Pascal Gross before curling a fine shot into the top corner, has netted five times in six league matches following the Norwegian’s appointment in December.And when he was asked if he thought Rashford was currently the best centre-forward in the division, Solskjaer said: “You can argue for many strikers but I’m glad he’s in my team.“Harry Kane’s injured so maybe that gives him a better chance to be the best one at the moment. “No-one beats him on work-rate, no-one beats him on attitude and at the moment he’s very confident in front of goal. He finishes, he tries to shoot, he doesn’t think twice about it.“He made a chance for Jesse (Lingard) and I cannot believe how Jesse didn’t score on that chance at the back post.“So at the moment I think he’s playing the best football in his career.”Rashford’s 42nd-minute goal, on his 150th United appearance, came after Paul Pogba had opened the scoring with a penalty he won himself. The midfielder has also scored five times since the Red Devils sacked Jose Mourinho and brought in Solskjaer.4

Pogba has re-discovered similar form to his days at Juventus since Solskjaer came in

Pogba reprised his stuttering spot-kick run-up and Solskjaer said: “He has scored quite a few goals hasn’t he, so if he’s comfortable with it, as long as the ball goes in the net…“I wouldn’t have done it that way but the way he strikes the ball is good enough.”After Gross pulled a goal back in the 72nd minute, it was a nervy conclusion for the hosts but they managed to see out the victory as Solskjaer became the first United boss to win his first six league games.The 45-year-old is the third manager in Premier League history to win their first six matches in charge of a club, after Carlo Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola at Chelsea and Manchester City respectively.4

Solskjaer is breaking records left, right and centre at United

“We made it more difficult than it should have been the last 20 minutes, because up until then I thought we played some great stuff at times,” said Solskjaer.“The players have to be proud of the form and momentum they are building.“Maybe in 10, 15, 20 years time I’ll look back on things like this.“I don’t care whatsoever about records, I’m never bothered about these things. But of course to be part of a team winning so much feels great, and the confidence that grows in that dressing room, I think the team spirit kept them away from losing points today.”4

United are three points off the top four

While United are sixth, level on points with fifth-place Arsenal and three behind fourth-placed Chelsea, Brighton are 13th.Brighton boss Chris Hughton said: “Certainly I wasn’t disappointed with the overall performance. I thought we conceded two poor goals.“Credit to a group of players that seized the opportunity to get back in the game.“But then you know you’re not going to get so many moments and in those moments you have to show quality, and we probably just lacked enough.”
