Forget Shaw, Rashford's brilliant form is great news for Man Utd wonderkid on make-or-break season

Manchester United dropped two points against Everton but Marcus Rashford's form is a huge positive, for more than just Luke Shaw. For the third game in a row, Marcus Rashford stood out as the best attacker in Man Utd's front three despite not scoring or assisting. His trickery and directness aren't replicated by anyone else in the Man Utd squad, and the downgrade felt when Patrick Dorgu comes on is palpable. The partnership with Luke Shaw is flying, but Rashford's form is even better news for a Man Utd wonderkid fighting to save his career.

This is a pairing that has had many great games together, so to see them pick up from where they left off is a huge boost. Having said that, Shaw's overlapping athletic style is not going to allow him to play every game this season. More United News Enter Harry Amass, who ended up staying at Old Trafford this summer after United failed to sign a left-back. Amass is the perfect partner for Rashford, as he has the dynamism to run up and down the wing all day, not allowing Rashford to miss Shaw's presence. The defensive downgrade might be the cost, but if Rashford is in such sparkling form, Amass is more than capable of being a rotation option. Rashford needs an option on the overlap, and Amass needs an inside forward who can find him on those lung-busting runs. Much like Shaw, Amass is the perfect partner for Rashford. Rashford can save Amass' Man Utd career Amass was very close to leaving United in the summer, and only the club's failure to sign a left-back extended his stay at Carrington. Harry Amass is STAYING at Man Utd! Let us know your reaction! Are you happy Harry Amass is the alternative to Luke Shaw? Do you expect him to play? The asking price of just £6m said everything about how the club rates Amass, and it is up to the player to take back control of this narrative. Rashford can help him by freeing him to do what he does best, which is getting into the final third and creating havoc. Forget about the whole season, Amass faces a crucial three months until January, because exit rumours will flare up again as soon as the winter window opens. If he can make a few encouraging appearances between now and January, he can push United's stance to the summer, when he will be in a better position. Rashford can save Amass' Man Utd career if Carrick just gives him a chance.
