​Rashford lauds Solskjaer for helping Man Utd progress

Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has praised manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for the team's return to form.

The Red Devils added another three points with a 5-2 win over Bournemouth in the Premier League.

And it is the latest encouraging performance from the team since the league resumed after the COVID-19 shutdown.

Rashford was asked about the team's progress by reporters after the game.

"I remember doing a few interviews at the beginning of the season and I was saying then that progress has been made. We're continuing to make progress," Rashford said.

"But, you know, it's easy for me to see progress because I train with the lads every day. I see us getting better day in, day out.

"For the fans, sometimes the only time they get to see it is on matchday.

"You know as well as us that some matchdays they don't go your way. It can look like there's no progression, but 100% this team has been progressing since the start of the season.

"The manager has helped us a lot. He's stuck with us in difficult times and we've listened and tried to take on board what he's saying and what he wants us to deliver on the pitch.

"Where we are now, it's getting closer to what we picture but there's still a lot more work to do to be back challenging for the Premier League."
