#2 Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford had a splendid introduction to United fans, scoring a brace on his debut in the Europa League against Midtjylland. In his first game against Arsenal, he repeated the feat.
The 21-year-old has long been touted as one of the best young players in the world owing to his tremendous potential, but he was in danger of frittering out due to his struggles under Jose Mourinho. At one point, there were speculations that he could leave Old Trafford.
Public chides, demoralizing substitutions and questions about his maturity level, Rashford was not spared any punches from Mourinho, with all this having a massive impact on his performances. The England international went from being confident and technical to a player unsure in his abilities and second-guessing every move.
Like most of his teammates, Rashford has been one of the most major beneficiaries of the change in management at Old Trafford, being deployed in a central role and flourishing as the spearhead of United's attack.
In 11 Premier League matches under Ole Gunner Solskjaer, Rashford has scored six goals and assisted two to help propel United up the table and install him as one of the favorites to be named PFA Young Player of the Year.
