Mourinho should give these 3 Manchester United stars a chance against Anderlecht

Marcus Rashford

And finally, Marcus Rashford deserves a start after his impressive substitute appearance against The Black Cats.

With fellow forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic a certain starter, Mourinho may be tempted to drop a midfielder, perhaps Marouane Fellaini, after his unconvincing display as stand-in skipper on Sunday, where he lost possession frequently and couldn’t use his renowned strength to good use.

Nineteen-year-old Rashford came on for Jesse Lingard at Sunderland and netted United’s third and final strike, linking up well with Ibrahimovic to blast the ball home into the far corner for just his fourth Premier League strike this season.

With away goals proving decisive in Europe this campaign, just look at Manchester City(!), getting on the scoresheet in Anderlecht will be key for their last-four hopes.
