Exclusive preview of UTD Podcast with Marcus Rashford and Paul Scholes

“I always remember watching him, mainly in the reserve team, and he was an out and out centre-forward,” says Scholes in our next UTD Podcast, which will be released on Monday night. “Sometimes I would go to games and just watch him, and not really watch where the ball was. I’d look for his movement – is he clever enough to have that link with a midfield player? I think he has that. 

“I was really excited when he first got into the team, a little bit luckily at first – I think there was an injury to someone. But ever since he has got into the team, he has shown the talent he has got as a centre-forward or a player wide on the left.

“I always remember seeing him as a kid and I thought his intelligence and movement was as a centre-forward. He looked like an out-and-out number nine, but now when you see him in games, he seems to enjoy it more from the left-hand side.”
