Barcelona manager Hansi Flick praised English after the match, saying that this is the first step in the right direction. He added that the splint should give him the confidence to make more and said (via ESPN):

“For me, it was the first step. He has to make the next step. This match, these goals here in England against Newcastle for Barcelona in the first game of the Champions League this season, it’s great. It gives him self-confidence. This is the most important thing.”

“But I am not surprised. His skills are incredible and his finish is incredible. For an attacker, of course, it is always good to score. I’m really happy. He is an important player. When we talked before the season, what we need for the team, we needed a player like him.”

Marcus Rashford has always performed well in Newcastle United, and he continued his sequence on Thursday, September 18. He now scored 11 goals in just 16 games against the Magpies in all competitions.

Marcus Rashford names Lionel Messi as his favorite Barcelona player of all time

Marcus Rashford spoke to the media after having moved to Barcelona and appointed Lionel Messi as his favorite player of all time on the Catalan side. He chose Lamine Yamal as the player with whom he is the happiest to play the club, while talking about the decision to leave Manchester United this summer.

He said (via Mirror):

“The situation with United is that the club has been in a period of change and they have been so for some time. I have nothing wrong to say on Manchester United. I think it was an important part not only in my career, but in my life. I am grateful for the opportunity to play for them, but football is the same as life and everything is not going as simple as you think.”

“This is my next step, my next chapter. I am fully focused on this and I try to improve and help the team win trophies. This is where I’m focused at the moment. I have nothing to say on Manchester United, I wish them all the best. I hope they succeed in the future.”

Lionel Messi faced Marcus Rashford twice during his career, when Manchester United faced Barcelona in 2018/19. The Catalan team won the two legs of the quarter -finals of the UEFA Champions League and sealed its place in the Final Four.
