MARCUS RASHFORD is statistically on course to dethrone Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the world’s best footballer.

Rashford has scored seven goals in 12 games during his first season at the Theatre of Dreams, Ron only managed six in 40. And the rookie’s record against five-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi in terms of shot conversion is monumentally better.
