Rooney, who's the current manager of DC United in the MLS was very confident in mentioning Rashford as the key to England's success at the tournament. He stated that he expects Rashford to thrive on his newfound form and have a big say in the tournament.

Marcus Rashford was subject to an exit in the summer but things turned around after Ten Hag intervened to block his move. He has since then gone on to impress both the club and its fans with quality performances. Rashford has so far scored eight goals and provided three assists to United course this season.

HOW FAR CAN RASHFORD AND ENGLAND GO AT QATAR?

Although the English team is brimming with talents for several top teams in Europe, their chances at the Mundial are not as high as those of Brazil, Argentina, Germany, and France, who are all prime favorites to win the tournament. Rashford will surely get his chance with England and will be expected to make a great impact for the Three Lions based on his current form.
