'I’d be playing him on the left': Michael Owen explains why Rashford should be starter for England

It seems like Michael Owen is changing his tune about Marcus Rashford! Owen once had doubts about Rashford's goal-scoring abilities for Manchester United but now he believes that Rashford's speed is super important for England.

Quoted by Manchester Evening, Rashford said: "If we don’t have someone like Rashford, then I don’t think we have masses and masses of pace to frighten the life out of anyone."

"I think when you have a combination of the likes of Bellingham, Foden and Saka and then you have the raw pace of Rashford, teams won’t know whether they are coming or going."

"And at the moment I’d be playing Rashford on the left and keeping an eye on Cole Palmer. So Saka on the right, Foden as the 10, Rashford on the left with Kane up front and Bellingham and Rice in midfield."
