“He is definitely one of them,” Ten Hag replied when asked if Marcus was among the best forwards in Europe during his post-match press conference.
“I was convinced [by him] from the first moment. I was really excited to work with him. I thought I could get more out of him.
“He has so many skills, such high potential, and I think that can be even more. When he works well, he will score even more goals because he can score with his right, his left, and with his head.”
In his post-Leeds press conference, Ten Hag referenced a question he was asked during his first few months at the club.
“You [the media] asked me: ‘do you have a player in your squad that can score 20 goals?’ in August/September, and I confirmed, I think he [Rashford] can do it,”
