Manchester United boss Ralf Rangnick admits Marcus Rashford is in a form slump.
Rashford started on the bench in Manchester United's 0-0 draw with Watford on Saturday afternoon before coming on in the 74th minute as the team pushed to break the deadlock.
However, he failed to make an impact and it is now six consecutive appearances for the 24-year-old without finding the back of the net.
"Right now he is trying to find his best possible shape and performance and we are just trying to give him that helping hand with everything we can, showing him video footage and speaking with him regularly," said Rangnick.
"In training, he is in top form and shape and that is why I played him. But now it's about transforming that performance from training into the league and this is the next step he has to take.
"By the way, we had a very similar situation with Jadon (Sancho) six or seven weeks ago and he is the best example about what can happen, it's the player himself who has to perform and get the best out of his own performance. This is the same for Marcus now."
