But this year Rashford has been deployed on the left-side of a front three and now has three goals in his last three games.
The teenager has been touted for a bright future at international level and Liverpool legend Gerrard is excited to see what he can do for his country - but not for United.
"He's got a huge future ahead of him," Gerrard said on BT Sport.
