"Rashford was on target twice last night as Hansi Flick's side thrashed Olympiacos 6-1, and he earned himself an 8.5/10 rating from Football Espana. The Spanish football publication also praised Rashford's classy moment when he allowed Fermin Lopez to shoot so he could complete his hat-trick, even though the Man Utd loanee was also in a good position to try to go for goal himself."
"The 27-year-old was one of United's best players for many years, and it could be that this change of scene is helping him rediscover his best form. That might mean Rashford could now return to MUFC and perform for them again, though it might also be a sign that he just needed to get out of Old Trafford."
"Rashford is one of several former United players doing well after leaving the club, with Antony shining at Real Betis while Rasmus Hojlund and Scott McTominay are really thriving at Napoli. This perhaps just shows that players need to continue to escape that toxic atmosphere at United and go back to enjoying their football again somewhere else."
Marcus Rashford is on loan at Barcelona and is showing renewed form after struggles at Manchester United and an underwhelming loan at Aston Villa. He scored twice in Barcelona's 6-1 Champions League win over Olympiacos and received an 8.5/10 rating from Football Espana. He allowed Fermin Lopez to take a shot to complete a hat-trick despite being well positioned to shoot himself. The performances raise questions about his United future, with a return possible but a permanent move to Barcelona also conceivable if form continues. Several former United players are thriving after leaving the club, suggesting environment influences player performance.
