Manchester United player, Marcus Rashford has revealed that he prefers to play from the left which he says leaves a player with the opportunity to create more for a team.

The 22-year old who spoke to UTD Podcast revealed that he feels isolated when played as the main striker in a team.

Rashford who began the season as United's striker has scored 19 goals in 31 appearances before he went down with an injury.

“When you are on the left, you can create a lot more things on your own, giving that little bit more to the team.

“Whereas when you are playing up front, sometimes you are isolated and need someone in midfield who can find passes for 90 minutes of a game, so you can disappear in games sometimes as a number nine.

“When I transitioned to a number nine when I was younger, that’s the bit that I struggled with as I was always someone who wanted to express myself on the ball,” Rashford said.
