Man Utd boss Solskjaer praises 2-goal Rashford: Absolutely top class to work with

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hailed two goal Marcus Rashford after their 4-0 defeat of Norwich City.

The match marked Rashford's 200th for the club.

Solskjaer said, "He's been absolutely sensational all season. The work-rate, attitude and the goals he scored today. The first one, a good finish. The second one was very calm and composed on his penalty. Remember, we missed two against these last game, and he was practising penalties yesterday, so I was quite confident.

“What an achievement to get to 200 games at his age. He's been absolutely top class to work with. He's a great kid, with a great attitude. He wants to learn, wants to improve, and knows to keep his feet on the ground. He's always available and he's carrying quite a few knocks but there's no way he's going to say to me before the game that he doesn't want to play."
