Former Manchester Untied player Michael Owen has suggested that Marcus Rashford is not a natural goalscorer like Sergio Aguero and Harry Kane.
"I don’t think he is obsessed with goals," said Owen.
"He is a better all-round player than me, he has a great touch and all round skill that I never had, but he hasn’t got the killer instinct that I had.
"I was just obsessed…but I don’t think scoring goals is what he goes to bed craving."
To which, Marcus Rashford has issued a response as he is expected to make a start in England's Euro 2020 qualifiers game against Bulgaria.
"He [Owen] can only go on what he sees," Rashford said. "Whereas the people around me [know].
"Especially when I was younger, the reason why you started playing is because you see things that you like and for me, it was goals and watching exciting people doing exciting things with the ball.
"So, the important thing is what I know. I know what I want, what I want to become and what I will become if I keep my mind on it.
“If you watch training, then you’d see how it all works,” Rashford said. “I could use Harry Kane as an example. He’s one of the best finishers that I’ve played with and whenever we do finishing, in my head, it’s about being as close to him as possible.
“So if he scores six, you want to score six, if he scores seven, you want to score eight. Little things like that are the bits that people never see."
