Marcus Rashford reveals boots he hopes will fire Manchester United to brink of Champions League football

Straight from the original Ronaldo himself

We’re not sure if Ronaldo Luis Navaro popped down to the post office and stuck these in the mail.

Regardless, Marcus Rashford is grateful that his new Nike boots have arrived in England in time for a whirl against West Ham.

The 18-year-old missed out on Saturday’s 1-0 win over Norwich City but he is expected to be restored to United’s forward line tonight.

Rashford has seven goals in 15 senior appearances with United and has made vital scoring contributions against Arsenal and Manchester City. With Anthony Martial and utility forward (utility everything) Marouane Fellaini suspended, United need another big game from the teen.

On Monday, Rashford got hold of the new Nike Mercurial boots he will don at Upton Park.

United fans will hope that Rashford is not thrown off too much by the bling.

Louis van Gaal’s side need a win to overtake City, in fourth, going into the final day.
