Marcus Rashford concluded a six-month goal drought by scoring three goals in his previous two matches, with veteran Premier League defender Bacary Sagna confident in his ability to return to peak form.
Bacary Sagna feels that Marcus Rashford requires ongoing help from Manchester United to regain his peak performance.
Rashford concluded a six-month goal drought during United’s 3-0 Premier League victory against Southampton last Saturday and then scored twice in Tuesday’s 7-0 rout of League One Barnsley at Old Trafford.
The United striker encountered challenges both on and off the field last season, resulting in only eight goals, a significant decline from the prior season, during which he achieved a career-high total of 30 across all competitions.
Former Arsenal and Manchester City defender Sagna is certain that Rashford can regain his peak form this season, provided that the entire United team continues to offer him the necessary assistance.Sagna stated to Paddy Power, “Given Marcus Rashford’s caliber, it is essential to provide him with support.” “I admire him and assess him highly as a player, but for Manchester United to regain their former excellence, all their players must perform optimally.” I was pleased to witness his scoring and think it would facilitate his return to peak performance, akin to the start of his career.
“Mentally, I am uncertain if he was in an appropriate state, and his mother expressed concerns regarding his distress following a recent loss.” He is a human person, and these factors can affect his performance.
“Manchester United has exercised patience with him; it is hoped he will return to his peak performance and regain his previous impact.”
Although United has secured consecutive victories, Sagna believes that Erik ten Hag’s team is not performing at its optimal level and must elevate its quality of performance while achieving better consistency in outcomes.Sagna stated, “Manchester United is among the premier teams in Europe; however, I am uncertain if they are performing at their expected level.”
“When I contemplate United, I reflect on their former players.” The mindset was distinct, and the effect on the field was varied. They has exceptional players currently; nonetheless, they must enhance their efficiency to secure victories.
Kobbie Mainoo is now one of the premier players in his position. He possesses the requisite qualities, exhibiting considerable confidence at a young age, and will only improve through more play. He ought to continue playing if he is free from injuries.
