Erik ten Hag told he must start 'incredible' Man Utd star vs Liverpool, he 'always shows some quality' for Red Devils

Ten Hag urged to unleash in-form forward against Liverpool

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes believes Erik ten Hag should start in-form forward Marcus Rashford against rivals Liverpool on Monday night. Rashford has been in excellent form for United in recent weeks, scoring in each of his last four appearances. The 25-year-old has also been a key part of England's impressive start to the World Cup, scoring three goals in their opening two Group B matches.

'He's always showing some quality'

Scholes believes that Rashford's current form makes him undroppable for the Liverpool clash. "He's always showing some quality," Scholes said of Rashford. "He's always a threat in behind, he can score goals, he can create chances. I think he's a must-start for United against Liverpool."

Rashford has been one of United's most consistent performers this season, despite the team's struggles. He has scored 10 goals in all competitions, including six in the Premier League. His pace and direct running have caused problems for opposition defences all season.

Liverpool will be a tough test for Rashford and United, but Scholes believes that the England international has the quality to make a difference. "He's a big-game player," Scholes said. "He's scored goals against some of the best teams in the world. I'm sure he'll be looking to do the same against Liverpool."

• Marcus Rashford has scored in each of his last four appearances for Manchester United.
• Rashford has also scored three goals in England's opening two World Cup Group B matches.
• Paul Scholes believes that Rashford is a must-start for United against Liverpool.
• Scholes says that Rashford is a "big-game player" who has "scored goals against some of the best teams in the world".

Ten Hag has a big decision to make over whether to start Rashford against Liverpool. The United boss could also opt to start Cristiano Ronaldo, who has not been in the best of form this season. However, Rashford's current form suggests that he deserves to keep his place in the team.
