Why Rashford is one of the best LW in the world rn https://twitter.com/martiens_dean/status/1264585711967240194
Rashford had an amazing start to the season as he was out of position a lot but since then he has been spectacular.
Attributes Rashford possess:
One of his strengths are finishing. He has outperformed his expected goals by 0.4. ( a small margin but still the right step in the right direction). He is ranked 3rd with his goal count. Clearly very good at positioning himself in front of goal.

Ja sure he isn't a shot beast like Salah and Kane. But in he's defense he hasn't had any creative outlets when playing this season. Rashford has amazing shooting technique. It's flippen lethal.
Even tho he has scored 5 goals from penalties, he has won 4 of those penalties. Everyone who doubts him because of the amount of penalties scored, yall have your own agendas. There are many great players that have scored many penalties. It shouldn't downay how great they are.
He is still a good player without the penalties. What's really scary is how much outlet he's had since moving to LW. He has G/A every 91 minutes per goal when playing LW. That's higher than both Mane and Aubameyang's
One attribute that is underrated is his play making ability. His goal creating actions per 90 is 0.67. Keep in mind Mane's is 0.52 and Pulisic's 0.42. Rashford is more involved in plays than credit given for
One of Rashford's improvements is his physique. Imo that shows great determination to be number 1. In a way you can say he is following in CR7's footsteps
Have you seen Rashford's passing in the final 3rd, it is quite brilliant. He offers different ranges of passes that many wingers don't offer. He averages a success rate of 75%. Mane has a rate of 80%, showing that Rashford is really a great player at his age.
But Mane plays with a team that has a lot of players in the final 3rd, meaning more options. Rashford doesn't have that when he attacks consistently.
Imo Rashfords dribbling ability is at a iight-good level. He completes 2.7 dribbles per 90 min. He's success rate is 53%. Pulisic's is 57% and Mane's is 67%. Although he isn't a good dribbler he's still at a quite decent lever.
Rashford only gets dispossessed 1.63 times per 90 min (that is very good) Mane gets dispossessed 2.64 times per 90 min and Pulisic 3.61 per 90. Rashford is very mature on the ball. He doesn't force play and lose the ball easy.
Rashford has very quick feet, and great link up play especially with Martial. This makes him great for counter attacks. This is why he is so effective and effective at UTD. His runs are ever direct. He makes 12.41 runs per 90. One of the best in the league actually.
There are few improvements Rashford has to make to his game, such as headering. He closes his eyes way to often when headering. Imo he can easily add 3-4 more goals to his talky if he improved his headering. He also needs to work on his defense contribution
Although he isn't a lazy player he doesn't track back as often. With Sancho hopefully coming into the squad, he could be interchanging on the wings. With that in mind. He shouldn't be so predictable. This makes you such a massive threat than before.
There's no doubt ever since Rashford got moved to LW he has played at a world class level. He isn't world class rn imo but if he continues improving the way he is, he will be.
With the likes of Pogba, Martial and Bruno and hopefully Sancho joining us, Rashford is likely to be our focal point in attack. Meaning he'll be the main goal scorer. Martial is also a good goal scorer but is better suited at being a goal creator for Rashford
With Bruno and Pogba in behind the ball over the top of Rashford will be endless. Especially when he will be playing as an inverted winger. We have seen the players at the club are not a problem when it comes to his performance
The two things I see that are holding Rashford back is the management and injuries. Injuries could be a big problem as he is played way to often at such a young age. Especially this season. He is being overworked. Imo Ole can only get him so far, achievement wise
That's all I have for yall
