'People don't see that' - Phil Jones on how Marcus Rashford has reignited his Man United career

27.02.2023 - 00:23 manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Manchester United defender Phil Jones believes that it is Marcus Rashford's mentality that has helped him improve his form this season.

Rashford is United's leading goalscorer this term having notched just five in all competitions last campaign. Erik ten Hag has previously compared the Englishman to Kylian Mbappe for his ability to get in behind the opposition defence.

Despite being injured this season, Jones has been able to observe Rashford's rise at Carrington. He told Sky Sports, ahead of the Carabao Cup final, that the 25-year-old's dedication sets him apart from other players.
