Journalist Dean Jones has identified one of Erik ten Hag's first jobs after taking up the reins at Manchester United.
Jones has claimed that the Dutchman should be looking to address Marcus Rashford's poor form this season.
He reckons that Rashford getting back to his best could potentially save the Red Devils £80 million in the transfer market. Jones told GIVEMESPORT:
“Ten Hag, one of his first jobs at United is to get inside Rashford’s head and find out what’s gone wrong and if he can turn it around."
"That could save you £80m in the transfer market if you can fix Marcus Rashford.”
Rashford has been one of the standout players for Manchester United since he broke into the first team at a very young age
The academy graduate was even rewarded with the number 10 shirt for his incredible development.
However, the England international has had a torrid time this season, enduring the most difficult spell of his career.
The 24-year-old has scored just five times in 32 games across all competitions this season.
The Manchester United attacker seems to be struggling with low confidence and looks lost on the pitch.
According to 90min, Rashford is waiting to speak with ten Hag as he wants to decide his future at the club.
The Guardian previously claimed that the dynamic forward is frustrated with the lack of playing time under Ralf Rangnick.
The 24-year-old was an unused substitute in the Red Devils' last home game of the campaign, a 3-0 win against Brentford.
Can Marcus Rashford revive his Manchester United career?
Given Rashford's age and reputation, Erik ten Hag would be wise to give him a season to prove himself rather than offload him.
He is still very young and certainly has all the qualities to become an asset to the team.
Also, as a player who came through the ranks, Rashford understands what it means to play for the Red Devils.
Even the best players can go through rough patches in their careers and Rashford is no exception.
He has played under so many managers at Old Trafford in different roles and has delivered more often than not.
Ten Hag must give the Manchester United number 10 a chance to prove himself rather than replacing him rightaway. He also needs to find the best position for the 24-year-old.

Rushford is a very good player for a club like Manchester united. he only went out of form after his surgery and hopefully will be back in form next season and due to lack of time on the pitch he can't be back on form really.he just need time on the pitch then he will surprise the hole world especially his former coaches.

Its never a duty of a coach to improve a player's form. Rashford was never serious on improving his form by himself and trying to make himslef great. He will soon be like Deli Ali if he doesn't sooner realized and get improve
It actually is it very much is look modern day football is all about coaching Rashford has played so well under every manager because he's playing bad under Ragnick doesn't mean he's bad If we can work on him those 20 goals that he scored can become even 35 modern day football is all about coaching

All this English journalists, how long will you keep having hope where hope is non existent. IMO Rashford or whatever he is called has refused to up his game amd rediscover form even when he has been given all the chance to do so .the best for both parties is divorce.. let him ply his trade else where . His an utter flop that be revived

In last 10 years only few of the English players remained consistent for club and country whereas most of the are one or 2 seasons whome media highs up and then thrown them down if they didn't perform. It's better for both Manu and Rashford that he leaves.

maybe the last chance to impress United fans and football World of he miss this chance he might not play for big clubs in near future so for man Utd and his own sake he should fight for his place and show his best form and to be impactful United player also including Sancho who also need form and consistency
