Ander Herrera expects Manchester United teammate Marcus Rashford to get better and better over time until he becomes "unstoppable".

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has insisted that Marcus Rashford cannot be compared to any other modern-day forward and believes that his teammate "will be unstoppable".

Rashford has thrived since being given a regular run through the middle by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, rewarding his interim manager's faith with six goals in eight Premier League matches.

The England international struck the winning goal against Leicester City last weekend and has scored more goals in all competitions since his debut (42) than any other United player.

Herrera, another player who has looked much improved under Solskjaer, expects Rashford to get better and better over time.

"He's different," Herrera told ESPN. "We know at the moment there are some fantastic wingers in modern football: Ousmane Dembele, Raheem Sterling, Anthony Martial, Eden Hazard - but Marcus is different.

"Marcus can shoot, he can play one-against-one, but he also has the quality to combine and not lose the ball for the team.

"I couldn't name another player that reminds me of Marcus Rashford. I think he's already a top, top, top player, but I think he will improve. With time, and [improvements] in his decision-making, he will be unstoppable."

Rashford is reportedly in advanced talks with United over a new long-term deal.
