Aside from the stats, he has been terrible on the pitch. He has looked underconfident and hasn’t been able to reach the heights he is often touted to reach.
Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher spoke to CBS (via Metro) about Rashford’s performances this season. He said:

Manchester United’s options to replace Marcus Rashford
Under interim manager Ralf Rangnick, 19-year-old Anthony Elanga has started to show promise. He has become a regular substitute for Rashford in recent matches.
Manchester United drew 1-1 against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Round of 16 clash in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Elanga replaced Rashford in the second half and went on to score the equalizer at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.
Elanga also scored in United’s 4-2 win over Leeds United in the Premier League on Sunday. He has emerged as a good option for Rangnick.
The German tactician could also play Jesse Lingard in place of Rashford like he did against Leeds. The Englishman might need a couple of games to get up to speed on things due to a lack of game time. However, he could be a goalscoring option for the club.
However, both Rangnick and the Manchester United fans will hope to see Rashford return to form sooner rather than later.
