Marcus Rashford says he's 'playing better' at Aston Villa as England international puts Man Utd struggles behind him with FA Cup heroics

Rashford scored twice against Preston as Villa sealed a comfortable 3-0 win the FA Cup quarter-final. They will now play Crystal Palace in the last four, and Rashford admits he is enjoying his football once again after leaving Manchester United, albeit on a short-term deal.

The England international now has two goals and four assists to his name across 10 games for Villa in all competitions; at United, he scored seven and registered three assists in 24 games as he struggled for form and consistency.

Rashford told BBC Sport: "It's a great feeling. It's always nice for a forward to get a goal, so hopefully it continues. I feel like I've been getting fitter and playing better football since I've been here. I missed a lot of football before joining up with them. My body feels good and I'm enjoying my football for now."

Villa face Brighton on Wednesday before taking on high-flyers Nottingham Forest next weekend.
