How Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s United may line up

Swansea City v Manchester United - Premier League
Swansea City v Manchester United - Premier League

Striker: Marcus Rashford

If there’s one player that deserves to be in the striker’s position due to hard work and determination, then it has to be Marcus Rashford.

Romelu Lukaku has been the obvious striking option for Manchester United, but he just isn’t up to it. Just take a look at his record against clubs in the top six.

With Rashford, the team will have a striker that will chase all the balls in his path and also put pressure on the opposition’s defence any time the ball is with them. With his industry and hard work, Rashford will also be the first line of defence for Manchester United as he will press the ball higher up the pitch for them.

With that Manchester United will be a tough team to play against as they will hunt the ball immediately they lose it.

With a consistency of games in the striking position, Rashford will add more goals to the meagre tally he has at the moment. He has shown that he’s a big game player already and there’s no need to halt his progress any longer.

Conclusion

Expect a whole new playing style from the former Manchester United striker and also, a difference in how games are approached.

From his time at Molde and Cardiff, Ole Gunnar has shown that he took to heart what he learnt from the great Sir Alex and he’s now ready to implement the same at United.
