He wouldn't be promoting Rashford, though.
I hope you're right because I think Rashford looks an exciting prospect.
However, he's still very young and will need to be protected next season, so I'll doubt he'll be a starter under Jose
As if the hype isn't already getting going a bit
If we get Ibrahimovic, it will be hard to imagine where he will fit in. Mourinho preferred system is the 1-4-2-3-1, so he would most likely be on bench since he is not a wide player or a number 10.
If we adopt a 1-4-4-2 or a 1-4-2-2-2 then he will have a better chance to develop like Kane under Pochettino.

I can see this working for United under Mourinho. But with the amount of midfielders we have compared to our strikers, it will make little sense to implement.Darmien - Smalling - Manolas - Shaw

I love this lad. I just hope he stays grounded, works hard and keeps the right attitude. If he does I'm sure he will have a very bright future.
I'd like to think so. He's not famous for promoting youth, but Rashford has already made a name for himself in the first team and is an England international as well. I can't really see Jose demoting him to a bench warmer or something. He persisted with Varane and Santon, so it's not all bad in that aspect.
I also don't think it'd be bad if Rashford takes a slight step back and doesn't start every single game for us as he's basically been doing since his debut. We need another reliable striker if we want to challenge on all fronts and Rashford would still get plenty of chances to start/play. He's a brilliant talent, but it wouldn't be a good idea to expect him to carry our attack along with Martial. He's still only 18 after all.
Signing Ibrahimovic would be great for the team and most of all - for Rashford. Ibra will be 35 soon and would only stay a couple of seasons at most at United and by that time Rashford should be even more ready to be a regular for us. He'd also be able to learn from one of the best in the game.
I love how loads of the opposition fans I see on other forums are incredibly bitter about his success. If he played for Arsenal or Spurs or Liverpool they'd be perfectly fine with him being in the England squad, but because it's us it's just wall-to-wall sulking. 
Brilliant
I love Rashers, he had a slice of luck, great to see him bring home the bacon, and be bac on track.
Well deserved
That's wonderful news.. The article also talks about how CBJ is also on the verge of signing a new contract..
Good that we are tying them up to long contracts..

Quite remarkable that he has a show reel like that from just a few months of first team football.
it's quite impressive how he developed over past three months. From u18 to the first team, he would deserve to start ahead of most senior strikers in the league. He also keeps surprising me as Martial did who I though couldn't keep that initial form but kept that for so long that it became normal and even my expectations of him rose in the end. Rasher is like that now as well. He doesn't have bad games and always gets himself at least a goal or involvement in an attacking move. His touch could be better at times but it's quite normal for a player who had to take step from u18 straight to the senior team. His stamina is awesome for such a young player, something Wilson can only dream of but he would need to stay fit first. I also admire his positioning and he doesn't seem just like a give and run striker. he's got football brain and exactly knows where his players are and most importantly knows where the goal is and will score which gives him very good chance to get minutes under Mourinho, he may not him use him as a primary striker, especially when we buy Zlatan but he could always use him as an impact striker for the last 20-30minutes and he could be deadly when super fresh against tired teams. Cant wait for the next season to see him tearing teams apart.

What a player he is shaping up to be. Some of his flicks and back-heels almost have an air of Berbatov to them. He and Martial should form a pretty lethal partnership in the future.
It's all happening for him. Great news on a new contract and really feel he'll become a United legend in the future.

Excellent BBC!
Come the hell on! You insinuated that he doesn't or hasn't scored with a header at all! Martial is not too bad with headers either. The technique and power he got on his header that hit the post in the F.A. cup final was pretty impressive. Not doing it often (or not being presented with chances to do it often) does not mean he isn't good at it
No I asked a question, I genuinely don't know how good he is at heading the ball and I don't remember him heading the ball.
I love Pardew's look away when Rashford made that stunning turn in the FA Cup Final around the 6:02 minute mark.
He really could form a brilliant partnership with Martial. Both incredibly dangerous.
He (and us actually) was also incredibly lucky that the string of injuries that hit our front line happened at the same time otherwise he probably wouldn't have had the chance he had against Midtjylland and Arsenal.

I think that's unfair
Ok I'm a Charlton fan but I think Rashford is a breath of fresh air
Great potential
However, he is young and needs to be protected
As for Jose....I'm not sure he'll give him much
I hope I'm wrong, because I think he may be the real deal
Any problems with this disinterested view?
Noticed he's being line up in a wide right position in people's fantasy XI's for next season so I ask, didn't LVG already try that last season to terrible effect?
Yes and Mourinho wont
Not at all, what you've said is perfectly fair. But there's some people that are going for the "oh, the media are talking about Marcus 'better than Pele' Rashford again" or "England Saviour Marcus Rashford" over the top sarcastic approach to him. Like it's a completely new thing for a young player to come through and do well, and have that subsequent hype surrounding him. They're the ones I'm on about.
He played wide right for about half a game to one game max and was infact very lively. No reason whatsoever that Mourinho won't try that despite the poster above saying otherwise.
LVG played him as a deep right midfielder in one game. I would like to see him given some game time as a right inside forward to see how he does. If Jose allows the front three to interchange and/or gives Rashford the freedom to make runs in and around the box I think we will continue to see the best of him, if not he will get plenty of game time upfront as I don't think Zlatan will play every game.
Needs to bulk just abit to really annoy defenders, he already is a nuisance. I am concerned that it might take away some of his agility/change of pace tho.
Rashford debuts in a major tournament for england. Good on him.
Let's see how he does in the Martial-position!
Our boy doing fine!
Done more in 15 minutes than Sterling and Alli has done all match.
This may be an unpopular opinion but I think he is very poor technically. His dribbling awkward and more hoof and chase, his first touch is too heavy a lot of the time, he seems to trip over himself and lose track of the ball and he always gets the ball tangled in his feet when he does stepovers. Great finisher though
