Marcus Rashford might’ve missed a chunk of the action this season due to an unfortunate double back stress injury, but he caused chaos for opposition before that.
The Man United #10 boasts a great record against the big sides this season, having netted against Chelsea, Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur! But this isn’t anything new.
Rashford has been doing this for quite some-time now and has enviable goal-scoring records against the ‘top-six’ sides over the last few years.
Chelsea seems to be his favourite prey and in 10 appearances against them (in all competitions) he’s netted 5 goals and picked up 2 assists as well.
In 8 appearances against City, he has managed 4 goals and the Mancunian averages a goal every alternate Manchester Derby. In 7 outings vs Liverpool, he’s managed 3 goals including the one which earned United a point earlier this season.
In 6 games against Spurs, he’s managed 3 goals, while he’s also managed 2 goals and 2 assists in 6 games against Arsenal. Who could forget his memorable debut when he netted a brace against the Gunners in 2015?
Marcus really loves shining through on the biggest occasions and while some ‘top players’ struggle against top-six opposition, he seems to thrive under the pressure.
