What Rashford needs to work on

Thiery Henry clarified during a tv show what the Red Devil needed to work on. "This is what I say when this ball is coming to you, have a look at the goalkeeper to freeze him. Strikers don't do that often, the ball is coming to you, you know it, you have to look at the goalkeeper to freeze him and he never looked", he said. But he also considered Rashford only relied on his power while aiming to score. “What you do normally, he just fires low and across. Power is not always the answer. You open the ball up, just finish it. Place it down. Why hard? ”
