The Premier League is home to some incredible attacking talent – and there’s no denying that Manchester United‘s Marcus Rashford is up there with the best of them.

As well as being an all-round great bloke, Rashford has scored 10 goals in 17 appearances in all competitions so far in 2020-21 and a total of 77 in 231 over the course of his career to date, contributing 45 assists in that time too. Not bad for a 23-year-old.
