Ex Man. Utd defender comapares Marcus Rashford to Carlos Tevez

Marcus Rashford has been compared by Rio Ferdinand to Carlos Tevez, a former teammate at Manchester United.

On Sunday at Old Trafford, Rashford scored twice in the second half to help Manchester United defeat Arsenal 3-1.

Ferdinand hailed the forward for his performance in United’s fourth straight victory on his YouTube channel after the game.

Ferdinand said: “Marcus Rashford today, an assist and two goals, and Marcus Rashford who is still searching for the supreme confidence that he came under the spotlight with.

“I think the catalyst for that [his performance], is that he’s gone back to basics. And that’s what we’ve been asking for.

“He’s gone back to basics. He runs around chasing balls into the goalkeeper lost causes and things like that remind me and take me back to a little bit to Carlos Tevez.

“He was like a player who got the fans off their seat for things like that. Got the crowd going, generated an atmosphere, made the other players on the team think, ‘right, we’ve got to go as well.”

This season, Rashford has contributed two assists and three goals. The 24-year-old might play a part in United’s opening Europa League matchup against Real Sociedad on Thursday.
