Man Utd ace Rashford: I'll take trophies over goals

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford admits this season is the best he has experienced individually.

The Red Devils attacker is in the form of his life, scoring 29 goals in 51 games in all competitions.

The 25-year-old is by far the club's leading scorer, with Bruno Fernandes having only 11.

Asked by Premier League Productions if this was his best campaign, Rashford stated: "Individually, yes. But the year when Jose [Mourinho] was here, we won three trophies. For me, it's about the trophies.

“We've got the opportunity to secure Champions League football and the big one is to win another piece of silverware. That's what we're going to try to do. So that's what the aim is now.

"It's probably more contributions [than goals]. I'm not fixed on just scoring goals.

“I love scoring goals, but I enjoy playing with my team-mates. I want to get assists to help with the link-up, how we build up, and just try to be a better player, trying to improve as a player. And it's not always just goals that makes you a good player."
