West Ham United 1-2 Manchester United: 5 talking points

Marcus Rashford is indeed a special talent

What a month it has been for the 18-year old academy graduate! It is ironical, yet refreshing to see that despite going on a spending spree over the past 2 seasons, United’s revelation of the campaign has been a player who cost them exactly nothing.

His pace absolutely destroyed the West Ham defence for almost the entire game. His accurate finish past the reach of a diving Darren Randolph into the top corner was the act of a teenager full of confidence and energy. He is slowly building the stamina to last for 90 minutes, playing 88 before being replaced by a returning Wayne Rooney.
