The pair have been tipped by fans and pundits alike to deliver the goods at the Theatre of dreams and return United to their glory days.
Before the pandemic, both were on the treatment table but the postponement of football across the globe has bought them enough time to recover.
Rashford had hit 19 goals in all competitions for the Red Devils before being ruled out indefinitely in January. These goals have been his best return in a season and we all tend to forget that Rashford is just 22. Surely, he has more fans in the world after his campaign to ensure that vulnerable children in the UK have food to put on the table. But then, Rashford will be judge for his performance on the pitch more than any other thing he does off it.
Pogba, on the other hand as barely featured for the club this season due to ankle injury. He had his best season for United in the 2018/2019 season in which he had 13 goals and 9 assists in the Premier League. Talks of a move have not faded away as he continues to be link with Real Madrid and Juventus but the promising prospect of playing with Portuguese sensation, Bruno Fernandes and the financial implications of the pandemic in the transfer market makes the move more difficult to achieve now.
It has been seven years since Manchester United has something really huge to celebrate on the Matts Bubsy way and the pair will really have to work their socks off and prove that they can deliver on the promises of their potentials. In Pogba and Rashford, Manchester have got loads of talents and potentials to work with but United will be hoping both players can hit the peak of their potentials.
Rashford is still learning his trade and Pogba’s commitment to the United cause has been questionable since he had began to seek for “a new challenge” since last summer.
The atmosphere around the team has changed since Bruno Fernandes signed up in January and undeniably, there are a few other talents in the squad.
Like Pogba and Rashford, there are several other ‘talents’ to unlock but it only thrusts the future of the club into several probabilities. United have the chance to convert their potential energy into kinetic energy as they take on Totenham tomorrow evening.
If Pogba and Rashford are the players to lead United to their glory days then they must first lead United to victory tomorrow night and then qualification spot for the Champions league next season. Let’s wait and see.
Do you think Pogba and Rashford has all it takes to lead United to the pinnacle of football. Let us know in the comments section.
