Ralf Rangnickbelieves that if Marcus Rashford wants to regain his spot at Manchester United,he must be able to replicate his training performances on the pitch.

In spite of the absence of fellow attackers Cristiano Ronaldo,Edinson Cavani and Anthony Martial, Rashford was left out of the United XI for the defeat against City.

That's when it came out, on Monday. Because Rashford has started just twice in the last 11 Premier League games, he was contemplating his future. Because Ronaldo and Cavani are both expected to return from injury against Tottenham on Saturday, the 24-year-old is not sure if he will start.

Cristiano Ronaldo's situation has been updated by Manchester United.

According to people close to Rashford, his performances in training have been excellent; the only problem is that he hasn't been able to replicate them in games.

Rashford had to play at the same level he trains if he was to reclaim his place in the Bayern Munich starting line-up, according to coach Philipp Rangnick. In a press conference just a week or two ago, we discussed this topic.

When it comes to the modern striker, "it's all about transferring the performance of the training sessions into the regular games," as manager Jose Mourinho said of Marcus Rashford.

In the wake of Arsenal's win at Watford, Manchester United were relegated to fifth place. With a game in hand, Arsenal leads United by a point. However, Arsenal must play Chelsea, Tottenham, and Liverpool in that game. With a win at Old Trafford, Tottenham would leapfrog Manchester Unitedinto a playoff spot. Rangnick acknowledged Arsenal's advantage in the race for the final Champions League qualification spot.

"Yeah, but not only us, the same is true with two or three other clubs," Rangnick said of the top four tussle. "They (Arsenal) seem to be in the greatest conceivable position but there are still 10 games to play.

"We are completely aware that we must look after ourselves and avoid losing any additional points."
