Rashford, who was signed by Villa on loan from United earlier in February, was a half-time substitute in the 2-1 English Premier League home victory over Chelsea on Feb 22, assisting on both goals by fellow newcomer Marco Asensio. Enzo Fernandez had scored the game’s opener in the ninth minute before Villa fought back.

Jamie Redknapp feels directors will be asking "why didn't I get Marcus Rashford" as Aston Villa were hailed for a "masterclass" of January business including a the "new Holte End hero".
