Premier League 2019/20 Power Rankings: Week 2

#7 Marcus Rashford

Manchester United v Chelsea FC - Premier League

Marcus Rashford was placed at #4 after his tremendous goal-scoring efforts and a terrific performance. Rashford's counter-attacking threat was immense in the victory against Chelsea in the 1st week. He scored 2 goals on the opening day.

Against Wolverhampton Wanderers, away from home, Rashford retained his goal involvement streak. He linked up with Anthony Martial to create United's first goal and got an assist as a result. In the first half, he was good, winning all three ground duels that he attempted, and completing 32 passes at an 84% accuracy.

Paul Pogba might have got ahead of himself when he took the penalty responsibility upon himself and ended up missing. The penalty gave United a chance to take the lead again but was saved by Rui Patricio, and Rashford was silent in the second half, mostly dominated by Wolves.

There were no holes in the defence to hit them on the break, which cancelled out the effectiveness of Rashford and James. Wolves defended in numbers against United and held them to a draw.

Rashford will drop three places on the account of not winning against Wolves and also not following up his stupendous performance on opening day with another one.
