The message from Marcus Rashford was much welcomed by all its intended recipients. The Manchester United striker and trailblazer for academy stars, reassured the club's youngsters following the announcement that the academy season had been cancelled, with all leagues and competitions - bar the FA Youth Cup - called to a halt due to coronavirus. "Now is not the time to fall out of love with the game," said Rashford. "It's a time to remember why you fell in love with it in the first place. "You've got this and we can't wait to see you all back next season." Rashford's words were filled with the emotion of someone who has fought through all the difficulties that come as a youth player trying to make it at United.
