Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer hailed the performance of Manchester United matchwinner Marcus Rashford for victory at Tottenham.

Shearer wrote for The Sun: "Nobody has ever doubted his ability but he has finally been set free under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer — and it is great to watch.

"Rashford is the main man at Manchester United now and has every attribute in his locker to thrive as a striker going forward.

"His movement is excellent and constantly improving, he has the pace to terrify any defence and his finishing has come on leaps and bounds.

"It was a world-class pass from Paul Pogba to set him up and the strike from Rashford shows just how confident he is right now.

"He is showing a calmness in front of goal now which we have not seen before, but that comes with experience."
