Marcus Rashford, a striker for Manchester United, has earned high praise from legend Roy Keane.

The 24-year-old's performance against the Gunners was praised as "absolutely brilliant" by Roy Keane.

After assisting Antony on his debut goal, the England international scored twice as United defeated Mikel Arteta's team 3-1.

The Red Devils are now within three points of the top of the Premier League with their fourth win on the trot.

Keane noted that the forward will "always cause problems" having rediscovered some much-needed "hunger" in his game.

“Hunger, desire, the skill levels, the decision-making, stretching teams,” he said on Sky Sports while discussing Rashford.

“He has had a full preseason with the club, different [from] last summer. Now he looks settled, he is happy in his mindset and when Marcus is at it, he is a handful."

You don’t want to play against him because he causes problems. When he stretches teams, he is a good player.

“Today, he was outstanding; it was an absolutely brilliant performance." And I have been tough on him the last year or two. He needs to be more consistent, but today, he was fantastic. "
