Hopefully this lad gets his hattrick. Very impressed.

Probably got away with a handball/red card. But oh well...what a player! Great movement for both goals (again)
Everything happens for a reason. So happy for him. Looks to have a great future ahead of him.
OptaJoe?
Dream start for the lad. Hate when young players get unreal expectations because of good debuts. Hopefully he continues to get more minutes to develop and prove himself
Just watched the replay. Clearly hits his arm that is in natural position, but it looked a bit like he pushed the ball forwards.
BBC Sport says he has 4 goals with his first 5 shots as a professional! Already scored as many United goals as Radamel Falcao! The hype is going to be something extraordinary.
The lad needed just 30 min to score 2 league goals. Rooney needed 1300 min to score the same amount of league goals in the first half of the season. But Rooney fanboys blamed the system
Bit of a weird time to bring it up. We've clearly been playing more offensively as a team for a couple of months now. Rooney scored 7 goals and got 3 assists in 9 games in 2016. That's partly because he wasn't playing like a donkey any more but also partly because we started to play more open football.
Yes I think it's the shoulder move to, rather than away, that makes it debatable. I'm sure Wenger/Arsenal fans will rage about it if they drop points
Is he the real deal?
I mean will he now be our starting xi for now on?

Yeah, LvG loves juice and if he's playing well there's no way he'll take him out of the first team.
Started as a winger. Converted into a striker. Ironically, his biggest problem at the U18 levels was his finishing.
. Feck, has he improved on that.
You are having a laugh.
Gutted if it's a hamstring
*phew*
Didn't he just get kicked in the balls?Gutted if it's a hamstring
Yeah. Was just weird the way he went down. Would expect something more WWE style.
An assist as well now. Good awareness too. Looks like he's going to take on his men, but sees Herrera's run and slots it to him at the perfect moment. What a performance!
He's the real deal. Awareness, decision making, movement, pace.
Assist.
Good hold up play.
Good hold up play.
United have an enviably young front three.
Great awareness and composure to get the assist, most youngsters (and plenty of experienced players) would have smashed a pointless shot into the defender.
He's dangerous. What a difference it makes (much like Martial) having a striker like Rashford who has pace, strength as well as good drive to make it count.
And Yes, I'm referencing Rooney.
And Yes, I'm referencing Rooney.
Rashford>Messi imo
4 goals and an assist in two games.
Sign Mahrez and you got yourself a potentially dangerous and fast front three in Martial, Rashford and Mahrez
And to think we've still got to put up with Rooney as first choice until he breaks Sir Bobby's record.
I'd be very annoyed if Rooney gets into the team ahead of Rashford again, providing Rashford continues to perform.
Looks shattered. Can't blame him.
Another brilliant performance from the lad.
Brilliant today, looks like complete CF in the making.
His giggling in the interview
No, it isn't weird at all. A barely known youngster form the academy exposed the incredibe shitness of Rooney in the first half of the season. Rashford did more in one game than Rooney did for the entire first half of the season! Even if are playing a bit differently now (didn't LVG deny it though?; besides, we didn't attack that much in this game!) Rooney was ineffably shit in the first half of the season and ruined our league campaign.

Anyone see him in the post match interview with Shreeves? Giggling like a kid - he is a kid! - throughout the interview, seems like a down to earth guy. So, so chuffed for him!
The commentators just said Nicky Butt has been showing him old school RvN videos this week.
What a player. What I like about him is that all four goals have seen him be in the right place at the right time... You cant teach that.
What a great looking kid, just saw his post match interview, giggling and completely oblivious to what he's become. Just wonderful. So good to see the local lad comet through. I have a feeling his life has changed forever.
Wayne who?
