Rashford: Man Utd bench duty frustrating but not holding me back

A man chasing down World Cup glory with England acknowledges that he needs to remain "patient" for club and country as he seeks more minutes

Marcus Rashford admits a lack of regular starts for Manchester United is “frustrating” but insists his development has not been stunted as a result.

Having burst onto the scene at Old Trafford under Louis van Gaal in 2016, the highly-rated forward has enjoyed a meteoric rise to the top of club and international football.

He is now an England star chasing down World Cup glory and an important part of Jose Mourinho’s plans at United, but he is also just 20 years of age and still learning his trade.
