JAKARTA - Manchester United striker performance, Marcus Rashford, is in the spotlight. After appearing sharp last season, the English player actually fell in the 2023/2024 season.

Rashford is considered less productive by scoring just one goal in his 10 appearances with the Red Devils. He was greatly feared last season in the opponent's penalty box with 30 goals in all competitions.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag believes Rashford will soon regain his sharpness.

"This will pass because everyone knows the quality. Everyone at Manchester United supports him and the whole team supports him, trusts him," Ten Hag said.

Rashford's only goal this season was when Manchester United lost 1-3 to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, early September.

Despite Rashford's difficulties at the start of the season, the 25-year-old striker has shown good progress as in recent weeks he has been involved in a two-goal process when he recorded two assists in the Champions League match against Bayern Munich (3-4) and Galatasaray (2-3).

"With that belief that the team supports it. This will change and will pass," said the Dutch manager, as quoted by Antara.

On the same occasion, alluded to Rashford only needing one goal to reopen his sharpness tap, Ten Hag agreed.

''It will happen and he is very experienced, he also knows it. When he does the right thing and the team does the right thing, that momentum will come and he will be excited,' said the former Ajax Amsterdam coach.

Rashford is in the Reds Devils squad to face Brentford at Old Trafford on Saturday at 21.00 WIB.

In that match, Rashford is expected to find his sharpness again, especially since he has sweet memories against The Bees where from four meetings in the Premier League scored two goals.
