Marcus Rashford living up to the hype thus far for Aston Villa

Did Manchester United make a massive mistake in letting Marcus Rashford leave town for the rest of the season? That's what a lot of people have on their minds, as United is currently in 15th place of the Premier League table, which feels like rock bottom for the EPL giants.

On the other hand, though, Rashford's new club in Aston Villa has been playing well, sitting in eighth place. On Saturday, Villa posted a come-from-behind 2-1 win over Chelsea FC at home. Marco Asensio scored both goals, with Rashford providing both assists:

On the first Asensio goal, Rashford showcased incredible focus to somehow get the ball over for his teammate to tap it in. Chelsea was hoping to post a late winner, but Rashford and Villa had other ideas in this one.

It was an important three points for Aston Villa, which is also still alive in the Champions League. This team is loaded with potential for the rest of the campaign now that Rashford and Asensio are suiting up and making plays for the squad. As for United, there's no question it is missing Rashford these days, as the Manchester born and bred standout would have been able to make a gigantic difference for Ruben Amorim.
