Jose Mourhino was caught on camera shaking his head in despair on the touchline when Marcus Rashford missed a simple opportunity against Young Boys in the Champions League when he came one-on-one with the goalkeeper but scruffed the ball over the net. Fast-forwarding three months, Marcus Rashford found himself in a similar position against Watford yesterday, but this time, he put his ghosts of the pasts behind him and brilliantly passed the ball into the back of the net as he went past Ben Foster. The Norwegian vowed to turn Marcus Rashford into a better finisher when he arrived and that finish yesterday exhibited how much work Solskjaer has put into the youngster's finishing on the training pitch. Marcus Rashford looks much more composed in front of goal since the arrival of the Norwegian.
