The departure of Ronaldo and the arrival of coach Ten Hag appear to have freed him to excel
While most players ease their way back into their club side after a gruelling World Cup, Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford has not wasted any time, scoring in every match since his return to take his season’s tally to 15 goals.
Not bad for a forward who was woefully out of form last season and scored only five times in all competitions. Ronaldo’s arrival in 2021 was seen as a vanity signing as United were not a team that was struggling to score while Rashford was also on the rise having completed a second straight season with 20-plus goals.But even as Ronaldo added to his burgeoning goal tally with 24 strikes, the rest of the team suffered as United struggled to their worst Premier League points total last season.
Disciplinary issues marked the end for Ronaldo, who left games early after being upset at being benched, but Rashford has graciously accepted punishment and come out the better for it. Since losing 6-3 to Manchester City in October, United have won 15 of their 18 games, losing only once.
