Former Manchester United star, Garth Crooks, believes that Marcus Rashford has the potential to be the world’s best player if he adopts the same hunger and mindset as team captain Bruno Fernandes.

Rashford has faced criticism this season for his performance under manager Erik ten Hag, with only eight goals and five assists in 39 games for the Red Devils. This is a stark contrast to his impressive record of 30 goals and 10 assists in 56 games last season.

Despite his current struggles, Crooks is confident in Rashford’s talent and believes that he could reach new heights by following Fernandes’ example. In an interview with BBC Sport, Crooks stated, “Marcus Rashford would be the best player in the world if he had Bruno Fernandes’ appetite and attitude towards the game.”

The comparison to Fernandes highlights the impact that a strong work ethic and determination can have on a player’s performance. By emulating the captain’s dedication and passion for the game, Rashford could unlock his full potential and become a dominant force on the world stage.

As Rashford continues to strive for greatness, fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see if he can rise to the challenge and fulfill his promise as a top-tier talent in the world of football.
