During a crushing derby loss to local rivals Manchester City, the striker faced criticism from former Manchester United captain Roy Keane.

The English striker has become an integral part of the Ten Hag squad this season, as he has 3 goals and 2 assists in his 8 appearances. He scored the second goal in the win over bitter rivals Liverpool, and also scored twice against Arsenal.

Ten Hag also prefers Cristiano Ronaldo as his starting striker in the starting eleven. Rashford is very much into counter attacking tactics and Ten Hag’s formation is based on that game strategy.

Before Sunday’s game against Everton, Rashford responded to criticism from him and his team. He spoke: “There were times when I felt disappointed, but that’s normal, isn’t it? We are all players who like to win, that is why we play for Man United. We have such high expectations of ourselves and others. Ask any of us and we’re not happy to lose or even draw.” The striker also spoke about Manchester United’s main focus of winning most games. Last week’s loss to Manchester City snapped their unbeaten run after winning four straight Premier League games. Before the start of the match against Everton, Rashford spoke highly of his current manager. He revealed: “The manager has a very clear identity and way of playing, which I think makes it easier to adapt to him.” Despite being in the early stages of the long 2022-23 Premier League season, the striker is optimistic about the club improving under the new boss.
