Man Utd ace Rashford looks ahead to derby after impressing Allardyce
Posted Wednesday, September 07, 2016 by tribalfootball.com
Marcus Rashford has quickly cast his attention to this weekend's Manchester derby.
The Manchester United striker scored a hat-trick and took Man of the Match honours in his first match for the England U21 side in their 6-1 Euro2017 qualifying win over Norway on Tuesday.
Rashford, 18, feels he has now provided United boss Jose Mourinho with a headache while also putting himself at the forefront of England senior team manager Sam Allardyce's mind.
"That's all you want to do as a young player, give your manager a decision about whether to play you," he said.
"I'm looking forward to (the derby). It means a lot (that Allardyce was here).
"It's the England seniors, there is a new manager and they are doing well. Everyone is working hard to get into that side, so it was important that he was here to see our development."
