'I feel energised' - Marcus Rashford shares renewed hope for Manchester United after big win over EvertonGetty

Marcus Rashford feels "energised" after Manchester United won their first Premier League match under Ruben Amorim on Sunday with a 4-0 win over Everton at Old Trafford.

Two goals each from the winger and Joshua Zirkzee powered the Red Devils to the big victory, with the club now undefeated through three matches under their new manager.

For Rashford, the win was indicative of what United can do with Amorim at the helm, although he acknowledges work needs to be done to restore the club back to prominence.

"It is a nice result," he told Sky Sports. "It is important with a new coach and a new play of playing, when we are still learning.

"We have to back up this performance and win in midweek [at Arsenal].

"We all, as individuals, want to get back to our best and then push to improve so even in the bad moments you are doing the right thing."

That all four goals were scored by Rashford and Zirkzee, who came under fire for their lack of production under Erik ten Hag, is not lost on the 27-year-old England international.

He expects continued improvement for the entire United squad with more time under Amorim, adding: "The connection is going to build and grow the more we get used to him.

"He's [Amorim] come in in a busy period and hopefully the connection keeps building and growing. He's come in with a great attitude and it's passed onto the players.

"The atmosphere is one of the most special things about his club and playing at this great stadium is always a great feeling.

"It is early on but I feel energised and ready for the next game. This game has only just finished but the next one is always the focus for the players."
