Marcus Rashford is finally looking like the player that Manchester United fans wanted him to be.

Prior to his sacking Jose Mourinho had praised the young Englishman, and the new manager also did the same after the Newcastle game. But with the Norwegian manager saying that Lukaku will start this fixture, Rashford may also get a rest.

That courtesy will also be extended to Anthony Martial as the manager announced that Alexis Sanchez will also start.

That will leave one position free [the right side of the forward line]. There are a number of players that can play in that position including Jesse Lingard and Juan Mata. But Ole Gunnar Solsjkaer may well want to blood in an academy graduate for that position, and may opt for either Tahith Chong or Angel Gomes.

Both are fine players with huge potential, and would want stake a claim for the starting eleven if given chances.

Here is how the team may look against Reading:
