Gary Lineker has challenged Marcus Rashford to rediscover his best form while Rasmus Hojlund has been told he needs to break his Premier League duck.

The pair have scored one Premier League goal between them this season, with Rashford’s said strike being his only success in 16 matches across all competitions.

Hojlund, meanwhile, is United’s top scorer with five goals. However, the Dane is yet to score in nine Premier League games with all of his efforts coming in Champions League defeats.

Lineker described United as being in "turmoil" and is unsure whether they will finish in a top five spot despite the imminent arrival of Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
