During England‘s 3-0 win over Wales on Sunday, England manager Gareth Southgate described Marcus Rashford as a “completely different version” to the one that played for Manchester United last summer. The midfielder made his first start for the Three Lions during their win and was credited with a number of contributions on the pitch.

England’s 3-0 win over Wales

Despite his underwhelming performance at the World Cup last summer, Marcus Rashford has returned to his former self. His goal in England’s 3-0 victory over Wales was a well struck free kick that went through the legs of goalkeeper Danny Ward.

Rashford’s performance in the opening game against Iran was a resounding success. He tallied a goal and two assists. The highlight of his game was a well-struck rocket-like free kick from just 25 yards out.

Although Rashford is still a fringe player at the Euros in 2021, he has managed to reinvent himself in Qatar. He has impressed with his all-round game and looks rejuvenated under new manager Erik ten Hag. He is now in line for a starting berth in England’s last-16 match against Senegal.

Rashford’s performance was not without its shortcomings. England’s lone major trophy came in 1966. It’s unlikely that they will win another major trophy before the 2022 World Cup. But Gareth Southgate has navigated the group stages of each major tournament successfully. So the big question is whether he can do the same at the World Cup.

Rashford also proved his mettle in England’s opening game against Iran. His performance was impressive in a match where he was only introduced in the second half. His goal and two assists helped England win 3-0.

Marcus Rashford’s contributions on the ball

Throughout his career, Marcus Rashford has made his contribution on the ball. From scoring goals against West Ham and FC Sheriff in the Europa League to assisting Phil Foden’s free kick in the World Cup final, he has made an impact on the field. But he is also a passionate social activist. This year, he has campaigned for food assistance for children and is raising money for FareShare.

He has also received an MBE and was named in the Queen’s Birthday honours. He has also won the PFA Merit Award. And he has been linked with luxury brands. The 24-year-old Manchester-born man was born into a single mother’s family, who worked long hours to support the family.

In his childhood, Marcus relied on free school meals. As a result, he was motivated to make a change. So in November, he campaigned for a U-turn on the Conservative government’s decision to cut the free school meal scheme during the summer holidays. He succeeded and the government reversed its decision.

He has also campaigned for an extension of the free school meal voucher scheme into the summer holidays. He has spoken out against online bullying and against online abuse of children. He has received a number of awards for his selflessness. He has also launched a poetry competition for deaf children.

Gareth Southgate’s desire to have attacking options

Despite having an incredibly talented attacking line-up, Gareth Southgate has been criticized for not providing sufficient attacking options. He prefers to put faith in a small group of players. The result has been a series of close calls over the past two tournaments.

One of the reasons for Southgate’s lack of flexibility is that he can’t fit everyone into his squad. This means he’s been forced to make decisions that may not have been the smartest.

One of the best examples of this is the way he’s used players in different roles. For example, James Maddison has been in good form for Leicester. He can link with overlapping full backs and create from crosses and cut-backs. He also has the ability to drift into inside channels. He has scored eight goals in eight Premier League games.

In addition, Southgate has made nine defenders a part of his squad. This is a curious selection. There aren’t many other nations that have named that many players at the defender position.

In addition, he has opted for a 3-4-3 formation, which means that England have a double pivot. This system will allow England to create in the midfield area. It also leaves the rest of the team dependent on finding a way to break through the defence on the break.
