“I was struggling at times with more mental things. It wasn’t really my own performance but other things off the pitch. That’s the biggest difference from last season," said Rashford.
Rashford struggled to impress at United last season due to mental issues and he is grateful that he has put everything behind him and he is now enjoying his career.
“Too often last season, I wasn’t in the right headspace for games. I wasn’t surprised by some of the stuff that was happening," added Rashford.
