Of the several humiliations Manchester United face this year, one close to the top of the list would be Marcus Rashford snatching the FA Cup from his boyhood club – and holders of the trophy – after they went to such lengths to force him out of Old Trafford.

Marcus Rashford feels his best is still to come after firing Aston Villa into the FA Cup semi-finals with his first two goals for the club. The on-loan Manchester United forward struck twice in the space of five second-half minutes to set up a comfortable 3-0 victory for the midlands outfit in their last-eight tie at Championship Preston.
