Rashford set for big season, says Mourinho

United’s next match, after the worldwide break, is a derby clash with Manchester City – who Rashford scored one of his eight club goals last season against.

Rashford struck a 92nd-minute victor, having replaced Juan Mata 20 minutes earlier, as United broke Hull’s resolve to extend Mourinho’s winning start at United. “I loved it and hopefully there’s more to come”.

“We’ve got to wait and see how things go in September and October, but there is respect between us and that’s important for me”.

“In the two matches when we have needed a victor, against Leicester and today, he [Rashford] has done the job”, Man Utd manager Jose Mourinho said.

“It is time for him to acknowledge that he simply can’t keep doing both – and I mean that for his own good”.

“It was an unreal feeling and even a few of the lads in there (the dressing room) said it was like taking them back to the old days when they sometimes used to get those smash-and-grab wins”.

Hull caretaker-manager Mike Phelan praised the efforts of his players, and called for a quick conclusion to the club’s takeover saga. Yes, we have four or five injuries, some of them are a bit more long-term than others, but we need to add.

Ibrahimovic then backheeled into the side-netting just before half-time, and United’s search for a goal continued with little success for much of the second period.

“It’s going to be touch and go”, Phelan said.

Orlandelli spent 11 years working for Arsenal so is well versed in what qualities prospective players need to handle Premier League football.

“Of course my absolute dream would be to play for Manchester United and help them reach the goals they have”, the former Germany captain said at a press conference in Dusseldorf on Tuesday.

Hull are expected to complete the signing of goalkeeper David Marshall from Cardiff next week after the Welsh club confirmed they had accepted a bid.

Hull has been the surprise team in the first weeks, winning its first two games despite having no permanent manager, a slew of injuries, no signings since the end of last season, and with its owners looking to sell up.
