Rashford was the star of the show as United beat Everton at Old Trafford on Friday. He set up the opening goal, forced Conor Coady into an own goal and then netted a penalty to secure the victory. He has now scored in each of his last five appearances for the Red Devils.
In his post-match interview, Ten Hag stated:
“He is in good form and on a good run, keep it going. If he keeps focus, concentration and good work. If he keeps investing in training and games, I am convinced he can keep it going.”
Everton were resilient and cause United plenty of problems.
Ten Hag spoke about how he wants the players to take every game at a time and not focus on the end goal.
“I know Manchester United are always aiming for trophies and we are going for that.”
” We cannot force this and have to focus on the next game, not focus on trophies, that is far away. We have to work on the team and development.”
“I think we will have that [players to win trophies], we can fight and fight back if necessary.”
” We can act and stay composed so we have resilience. We have good skills in the team to win games and win prizes.”
Marcus Rashford feels he is in the best form of his career after he helped fire Manchester United to a 3-1 win against Everton in the FA Cup.
“In terms of performances, it’s probably the best that I’ve been so I feel good on the pitch,” he said to ITV. “I’m getting into positions and areas to score goals. If I keep creating chances, I feel like I’ll keep scoring.”
The victory makes it seven wins in a row for Erik ten Hag’s men and takes them through to the fourth round of the FA Cup. The Red Devils are still in contention to win the Carabao Cup and Europa League, too, and Rashford hopes they can get some silverware this term, adding:
“That’s the aim, that’s why we do what we do and why we work so hard. We want to be in finals and the biggest games. Ultimately, we want to be win silverware and a trophy. Hopefully this season we get a chance to do that.”
Roy Keane remarked that Rashford is playing with confidence which is helping him meet expectations and hit the high standards expected of a United forward.
“The beauty of tonight, is that is what I expect from him,” Keane said.
“I’m not surprised by his performance tonight. He is becoming one of main players for United. Can he get them back to competing for trophies?”
