Marcus Rashford ranks first in Premier League chance creation despite struggles
Summary

Despite the lack of scoring, Rashford leads the Premier League with 13 chances created in the opening five weeks of the season. He has since withdrawn from the England squad due to injury. Sam Allardyce has criticized Rashford's performance, suggesting he is not fitting for Manchester United based on recent displays and transfer considerations.
