Rashford has been in great form since joining the Catalan giants in the summer, scoring six goals and providing seven assists in 14 appearances in all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>However, the forward feels the score could have been higher had his decision-making been better. Rashford said: &#8220;I&#8217;m just trying to do the right things on the pitch. Even today I could have had more assists, more goals and sometimes I misjudged a shot or a pass.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;But I&#8217;m going to have days like this. It&#8217;s always the team that matters and today we won, so I&#8217;m happy about this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My focus isn&#8217;t so much on results. I know that if I&#8217;m doing the right things, I can always score or assist. My focus is on building a relationship with the team and feeling comfortable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Barcelona coach Hansi Flick fully agreed that the forward can develop further. &#8220;One or two more goals would be good for him, seeing as he has the chances,&#8221; Flick said after the weekend&#8217;s game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But of course we can be happy with him. I&#8217;m very happy with him. He can play at this level and I&#8217;m happy to show that. He&#8217;s a very important player for the fans, for the club and for his teammates.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Rashford will aim to continue his good form next week as he faces a tough fixture schedule against Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p>The Catalan team will face Belgian side Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday, before a crucial La Liga match against Celta Vigo.<\/p>\n<p>With Barcelona already lagging behind in the title race, Flick will be keen to win back-to-back games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>They currently sit five points behind rivals Real Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>The club also have important decisions to make regarding Rashford&#8217;s long-term future.<\/p>\n<p>They have the option to secure his services permanently at the end of the season for around \u00a326.2m.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2129167\/Marcus-Rashford-Barcelona-Man-Utd-transfer-news\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite an excellent start to life at Barcelona, \u200b\u200bforward Marcus Rashford, on loan at Manchester United, believes he could have done better.
