Marcus Rashford has warned Arsenal he feels ‘energised’ and ‘ready’ ahead of Manchester United’s Premier League trip to the Emirates.
United travel to north London on Wednesday after crushing Everton 4-0 on Sunday to mark Ruben Amorim’s first league win as the club’s manager.
Rashford impressed in the victory over Everton – scoring twice – but the Englishman is already focused on United’s showdown against the Gunners.
The 27-year-old scored the last time United played at the Emirates in September 2023, a match which ended in a 3-1 win for Mikel Arteta’s men.
‘It is early on but I feel energised and ready for the next game [against Arsenal],’ Rashford told Sky Sports after United’s victory over the Toffees.
‘This game [against Everton] has only just finished but the next one is always the focus for the players.’
Rashford has been in fine form since Amorim replaced Erik ten Hag as United’s manager, also scoring in the recent 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town.
Speaking more generally about the win over Everton – as well as life under Amorim at Old Trafford – Rashford added: ‘It is a nice result.
‘It is important with a new coach and a new play of playing, when we are still learning. We have to back up this performance and win in midweek.
‘We all, as individuals, want to get back to our best and then push to improve so even in the bad moments you are doing the right thing.
‘The connection is going to build and grow the more we get used to him. [Ruben Amorim has] come in in a busy period and hopefully the connection keeps building and growing.
‘He’s come in with a great attitude and it’s passed onto the players.
‘The atmosphere is one of the most special things about his club and playing at this great stadium is always a great feeling.’
