Have you noticed how well Marcus Rashford is moving this season? The guy looks nothing like the miserable boy who struggled to make an impact last season. This is a new and improved version of Rashford. And it’s largely because of his work with South American icon Benny McCarthy.Bafana Bafana legend appointed to teach Manchester United strikers how to scoreThe former Porto and Blackburn striker was brought in as a first-team coach at United earlier this year, specialising in coaching forwards and improving their positioning. Lately, he got a lot of credit for the progress of several players.Match commentators acknowledged Benni’s contribution after Rashford scored against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday evening.”It’s his responsibility to get this team to find the back of the net regularly.
