Marcus Rashford reveals that former manager Jose Mourinho showed the Manchester United striker how to win penalties... and he adds there is 'no bigger game' than playing Liverpool ahead of title showdown

Marcus Rashford has revealed how Jose Mourinho instructed him to become more streetwise in the box as the Manchester United forward prepares for Sunday's title showdown with Liverpool.

Reds manager Jurgen Klopp recently bemoaned the number of penalties his team are awarded compared to United.

And Rashford claims former United boss Mourinho triggered the change in the club's fortunes in that area.

The United striker (centre) said he 'started to get a few penalties' after Mourinho's coaching

'There have been times when we have probably not got penalties,' he said.

'I remember when Jose was manager, there were five or six times where I should have had a penalty and he ended up saying to me, "If you are not savvy about the way you do it, then you are not going to get it".
