Giggs tells Rashford how to end his goal drought

Marcus Rashford needs to get back to basics in order to end his Manchester United goal drought, according to Ryan Giggs.

The United forward has failed to score for club or country since his strike against Leicester City back in September.

Old Trafford legend Giggs, who left his role as assistant manager in the close-season, thinks Rashford, 19, could have missed out on some stages of his development due to his rapid rise to the first team and had advice on how the England international can return to form.

"There is one problem with being an early developer in football and that is you miss out on some of the basics that are standard for young players who progress more slowly from youth team sides, to the reserves - as it was in those days - and then gradually into the first team," Giggs wrote in The Telegraph.
