Rashford, of course, has the chance to make amends after being named in the starting line-up for Manchester United’s clash with arch-rivals Liverpool.
Ahead of kick-off, former West Ham boss Nolan, who made 401 Premier League appearances for Bolton, West Ham and Newcastle during his playing days, has revealed how he would help Rashford.
“If I had Rashford working with me, I would try to strip everything to put the ball back in the back of the net,” Nolan told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“Everything he does seems to have a huge weight on him. Every wrong decision or if he doesn’t get a shot on goal, it’s the worst thing in the world.
“When you’ve had the few years he’s had and you start this new season with a lot of people doubting you, it’s difficult.
“He has to go back to the drawing board and go back to the basics and go from there.”
