Marcus Rashford believes Manchester United are “capable of winning big trophies” but admits there is still room for improvement following their disappointing Champions League exit.

United have won just three major trophies since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013 – the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League under former managers Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho.

The last of those triumphs was in 2017 and although current boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer guided United to the semi-finals of the FA Cup, Carabao Cup and Europa League last season – as well as a third-place finish in the Premier League – the club’s wait for silverware continues.

However, despite an inconsistent start to this campaign – including a disappointing group-stage exit in the Champions League – United are now unbeaten in six Premier League matches and could close the gap on leaders Liverpool to two points if they win their games in hand

Their next match sees them rekindle their rivalry with Leeds United at Old Trafford on Sunday, live on Sky Sports, and Rashford feels Solskjaer’s side are now starting to show signs they could soon compete for major honours once more.
