Marcus Rashford is enjoying the most productive season of his career. After 24 games he had already broken his own record of goals scored in a season. But how much is this turnaround in the Manchester United attacker's fortunes down to his own improvement? And how much is it down to his manager?
Jon Mackenzie analyses the data and the tactics. Illustrated by Marco Bevilacqua.

Actually, Benni McCarthy deserves much credit for Rashford's return to form and improving his finishing.

[@colemiller1591]

I'm really happy for him, been a big fan since he broke into that Van Gaal team.

[@mandenguemoukoko6646]

This is a classic case of less is more, I for one has always felt Rashford overdoes it especially when dribbling. Ten Hag must have seen it too so simply pulling in the reigns on Marcus offering more structure and less freedom has produced a more focused and effective marcus

[@humphreyamwell]

It must be down to mentality because this lad is already talented. Credit to ETH and the coaching staff though for positional rotation and getting the right people around him.

[@Soccer__Bangers]

As a liverpool fan, i have loved watching this kid. Even on his down year I know he'd stay strong and continue to ball. Same thing with nunez. just needed some time. Rashford is a baller off the field too, doing a lot for his community. Cant hate this man

[@sergioshort]

The influence of Benni McCarthy as assistant focusing on attackers seems to be forgotten...

[@yougazer11]

Should have released this few weeks ago, before the Anfield Massacre.

[@gordonfreeman9733]

YEEEEEES my fav voice is back! With all respect to the man who changed him before, I can’t watch videos without original voiceover. It’s like when you can’t fall asleep without fav fairytale.

[@scpjack7856]

“Sir, Rashford has exploded.”

[@kwazilucas]

Welcome back Joe. We missed you.

[@drex5160]

He's cashing in on all the good Karma he's gained from charity & helping hungry children🙏

[@darrionkemp7018]

Benni McCarthy has a huge influence also

[@mng-kz7fr]

Is it possible if you guys can make a video about all these statistical terms like xG, duel, turn over, recovery or something like that? Maybe what they are, how you calculate them and what they tell you about the team. Before the only stat i know is goal and assist, it’s kind of hard to keep up.

[@nabeelmalikofficial5795]

Tifo is back ❤️❤️❤️

[@triumphmdluli9348]

its good to have you back

[@sakhiwomthunzi]

Very interesting video, credit to Ten Hag for having the foresight to bring Benni McCarthy on as a striker coach. This seems to be a very important detail that was missed in the video.

[@VZMedia-]

The old voiceover guy is back!! Props

[@HeinoHD007]

Welcome back Mr Devine. Good to hear your voice.

[@shagrrr1865]

he's doing what he's good at again, back to basics....... I also feel like he has been playing hurt for a few years and now that is cleared up

[@Elepheel]

Because he’s about to renew his contract
