Man Utd boss ​Solskjaer unconcerned about Rashford form

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has no concerns about the form of Marcus Rashford.

The 21-year-old England striker struggled to get his game going in the 1-1 draw with Southampton on Saturday.

Rashford is now a key player at United, but he will have to improve his output if he is to succeed at the highest level.

"He'll get it," Solskjaer said to reporters about Rashford.

"He's getting there, so we keep on practising them finishes and crosses and if we can build the pressure as we did today I'm sure we'll be okay.

"He wants to have the full array of armoury. He wants to play on the left, he wants to play through the middle, as a 10, as a right winger, because he knows both for England and for us, he's got great teammates.

"When Harry Kane's the number nine for England, when Anthony [Martial]'s for us, he knows he'll have to play sometimes off the left."
