Marcos Rojo has insisted that he is not at all surprised by Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Marcus Rashford’s rise to prominence at Manchester United this season.
The teenage pair have earned plenty of new admirers for their impressive performance for the Red Devils since being drafted into the first team by Louis van Gaal in recent weeks.
Rashford continued his recent fine form by scoring the winner in United’s 1-0 triumph over Aston Villa at Old Trafford at the weekend, taking his tally to seven goals in his last 12 outings.
Fosu-Mensah, meanwhile, has also caught the eye with a number of impressive displays in the United defence.
However, Rojo insists that he is not surprised by the duo’s fine form in recent weeks and says there is plenty more to come.
Speaking to United’s website, Rojo said: “It might have come as a surprise to everyone else, but certainly not us. It is not a surprise for us because they have been training with us for a while so we had seen what they could do.
“Tim has great maturity and copes really under pressure, while Marcus has been vital for us and has brought us some important goals that came in fantastic wins for us.
“They’ve been showing their qualities out there for the first team and in important matches.”
