I have endless respect for both and I'm looking forward to bettering my game under the staff... I'm not sulking, I'm not unhappy," Rashford wrote in a statement on Twitter.
"Am I disappointed in some recent performances? Of course I am. I'm my own biggest critic. It's been a tough start but I am determined to prove my worth. My dedication and my desire should never have been in question. I love this club," he added.
