Man United play Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday and Marco Silva was full of praise for the Reds ahead of the clash.

Fulham manager Marco Silva thinks Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford have been the standout performers for Manchester United this season.

With Harry Maguire making just seven league starts, Fernandes has worn the captain's armband for most of the season, whilst the prolific Rashford has been the team's leading goalscorer by some stretch throughout the campaign.

Rashford impressively scored his 30th goal of the season in the stylish 4-1 win against Chelsea earlier in the week and that strike meant he became the first United player since Robin van Persie in 2012/13 to reach that number of goals.

Both players have been instrumental for United this season and Silva, speaking ahead of his side's match at Old Trafford on the final day of the Premier League campaign, picked the pair out as 'key'.

“This will not be the last game, they are going to play another final," Silva said. "They already played one final and they are going to play another one and, of course, for a club like Man United it is really important that they are fighting for some titles.

"They changed some things [this season], they signed good players as well. Some players have been the key for them the last few seasons, like [Marcus] Rashford, like Bruno [Fernandes], all these players.

"They signed two or three players that made a huge impact in their squad as well. You know that you are going to play against a very good side. I think they've been showing this season that they’re a massive club.

"[Against Chelsea] they showed again their quality. The individual quality they have, in my opinion, is clearly in the best teams in this league, because if you look for their individuals they are really a top, top, top level.

“They have players in the attack line and midfield line who can decide the game in one second if you switch off. And, of course, all those things demand from us to be top in all the moments of the game.”
