VAN PERSIE: RASHFORD IS ON A MISSION

As a former Manchester United marskman of the highest calibre, Robin van Persie is well judged to gauge how Marcus Rashford is performing in 2022/23.

作为此前曼联最高能力的射手，罗宾·范佩西认为拉什福德在2022/23赛季的表现很好。

The Dutchman believes the homegrown talent is in the "form of his life" and playing with such joy that it is really coming across in his displays under Erik ten Hag.

这位荷兰人相信这个曼彻斯特本土成长的天才正在他正确的“人生之路”上，他现在踢得非常快乐，这可以从他在滕哈格手下的表现中看出。

With 27 club goals to his name in all competitions this term, the connections he has on the pitch are evident, including a special relationship with creator-in-chief Bruno Fernandes.

本赛季在各项赛事中，他为曼联打入27粒进球。他在球场上和其他队员的联系是显而易见的，包括他和B费的特殊联系。

And van Persie has no doubts that Rashford is determined to keep scoring, and getting better and better.

范佩西认为，毫无疑问，拉什福德会争取保持进球，并且坚持变得更好。

Marcus Rashford scored in both legs of the Europa League tie with Real Betis.

马库斯·拉什福德在对皇家贝蒂斯的两场欧联杯中都取得了进球。

"Yeah, you can see he’s having maybe the best form of his life," van Persie said of Marcus, during an exclusive interview with club media. "The way he plays, he looks very fit. He looks very focused.

“你可以看到他的状态达到了生涯之巅，”范佩西在俱乐部媒体采访过程中评价拉什福德。“他打球的方式，看起来很健康。他看起来很专注。

"He looks to have fun. He’s on a mission now. Everyone knew from an early age, because he broke through from a very early age, everyone knew how good of a player he was - and still is of course - but now you see that everything clicks, and that is partly down to him, but as well a coach, and, as well, your team-mates.

“他很享受比赛，他现在正在状态中。所有人很早就知道了这一点，因为他在年轻的时候就一鸣惊人，所有人都知道他之前有多强，当然现在依旧很强。但是现在你看到一切都很顺利，部分原因在于他，还有教练和队友。

"If you look at the connection he has with Fernandes for example, that is something unique. You only have that connection with a few players throughout your career. And he has that now. He is like going from strength to strength."

“举个例子，如果你看到他和B费之间的联系，就会感觉这很特别。你只会在生涯中和很少的球员形成这样的默契，而他现在正有着这样的默契。他正在变得更强。”

Rashford sustained a knock during the Emirates FA Cup quarter-final win over Fulham and was forced to pull out of the England squad for the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against Italy and Ukraine.

拉什福德在足总杯1/4决赛战胜富勒姆的比赛中受伤，被迫退出即将到来的2024年欧洲杯预选赛对阵意大利和乌克兰的英格兰队。

However, hopefully, he will be fit again soon and looking to fire the Reds to more glory this season.

然而，他会很快恢复归来，为红魔攻城拔寨，带领曼联赢得更多的荣誉。

"From a coach's point of view, it looks really fun to work with a player like Rashford," added van Persie. "But it goes both ways. I’m sure Rashford is really happy with Erik [ten Hag] as well.

“从教练的角度来看，和拉什福德这样的球员合作很快乐，”范佩西补充道。“但是这是双向的，我很确信拉什福德也对和滕哈格合作很开心。

"You can see he’s growing, he’s confident; with him, you know almost every game he plays, it doesn’t matter against who, that he will score a goal or be decisive in most matches.

“你可以看到他在成长，他的自信心；和他一起踢球，你可以了解到他几乎每场比赛的表现，这并不取决于和谁对阵。无论和谁踢，他都会进球或者成为比赛的胜负手。

"From a fan point of view, it is fun to watch as well, because this is the Rashford we would like to see every week, every three or four days, so he is bringing a lot of joy."

“从球迷的角度来看，看他踢球也很开心，因为这就是我们想要在每周甚至每三四天看到的拉什福德，他带来了很多的快乐。”
