MARCUS RASHFORD has hailed his on-the-pitch relationship with Romelu Lukaku for Manchester United.
United have made an excellent start to the season, winning three Premier League games in a row, scoring 10 goals and conceding none.
Rashford and Lukaku have been instrumental to their impressive opening, with five goals between them and an instant connection on the pitch.
And Rashford believes the pair have clicked since they first played with each other.
“It’s just clicked, we’ve got that understanding,” the 19-year-old told MUTV.
“We’d never met before his arrival, and we didn’t know what each other were like, but when we got on the pitch together we just knew where each other was.
“Hopefully we can keep growing the relationship more and more.
“Obviously it’s only in the early stages, and the better we get at playing together, the better the results will be for the team.”
United have a history of prolific double acts as strikers and Rashford admitted he is flattered by comparisons which have likened him and Lukaku to Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole.
“It would be great if we could be like them,” Rashford said.
“But the most important thing is for us to work for the team together.”
