Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has detailed how exactly Benni McCarthy has improved his game since his arrival at the club in the summer.
McCarthy joined the Reds in July 2022 and arrived as a specialist forwards coach in Erik ten Hag's backroom team. The former Blackburn Rovers striker has been working closely with Rashford this season and the England ace has been in scintillating form for United.
Rashford has registered 26 goals and nine assists in 42 matches in all competitions this term, including in the Carabao Cup final as Ten Hag's men won their first trophy since 2017 with a 2-0 win over Newcastle United.

"I think he has done a good job," Rashford told SuperSport. "It's always good for us to have a particular coach that concentrates on us as a forwards group.
We have worked more as a team going forward which has led us to creating more chances and scoring more goals. "So, it’s still early days and Benni will tell you himself his aspirations are much bigger than what we've done so far.
