Gary Neville has proclaimed that Marcus Rashford has been 'stupendous' since the World Cup, but he also believes that another Manchester United player has equalled him in terms of performance.

Rashford, 25, has had a record-breaking season at Old Trafford, having scored 27 goals in 41 matches in all competitions. Notably, since the season resumed post the World Cup, the United academy graduate has been particularly prolific, netting 16 goals in 17 matches - the most of any player in Europe's top-five leagues.

His outstanding form has helped the Red Devils rise to third in the Premier League, with a gap of five points between them and the leaders, Arsenal, and they have also qualified for the EFL Cup final.

Neville has mentioned that United 'cannot do without' Rashford due to his proficiency in front of goal, but he has also noted that Luke Shaw has been as 'splendid' since the World Cup.

The 27-year-old has excelled at left-back and centre-back in the last two months, but Neville believes Shaw does not get the recognition he deserves.

He said on his Sky Sports podcast: 'Marcus Rashford's form since the World Cup has been fantastic, but I need to also point out Luke Shaw, who has come back from the World Cup in tremendous shape too. He is really outstanding, but he isn't getting the credit he deserves because he isn't scoring goals. But I have to keep mentioning full-backs and Shaw because he has been remarkable.'

On Rashford, Neville added: 'He has been sensational. Regardless of where he plays, either on the left or in the centre, he looks like he has defenders right where he wants them.'
