'He's a nightmare!' - Roy Keane claims Marcus Rashford is 'as good as any player' & 'almost impossible to stop' after seeing Man Utd loanee runs rings around Man City defence with Aston Villa

<p>Rashford started as Aston Villa's No.9 <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/unai-emery-blasted-ollie-watkins-up-for-sale-aston-villa-striker-dropped-marcus-rashford-man-city/blta72028616c4b88c4" target="_blank">ahead of Ollie Watkins</a> against Manchester City in the Premier League on Tuesday and displayed one of his finest performances since moving to Villa Park on loan from Manchester United. After <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/aston-villa-fans-turn-on-emi-martinez-another-bozo-error-man-city-goal/bltcd4a9aaec3436114" target="_blank">Emiliano Martinez's blunder helped Bernardo Silva to break the deadlock</a>, the English forward scored the equaliser to bring his team back in the game. Unai Emery's side were on the verge of snatching a point away from the champions, but <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-aston-villa-matheus-nunes-pep-guardiola-marcus-rashford/blte4ec736bf2bc4525#csd5612ddc7bdbb379" target="_blank">Matheus Cunha's last-gasp goal confirmed a crucial 2-1 win for City</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Speaking on <em>Sky Sports</em> after the match, Red Devils legend Keane spoke highly of Rashford's abilities as he said: "He was a threat tonight, he had a really big chance in the second half but when there is grass in front of him he is as good as any player. Ask the defenders, he is a nightmare. It is almost impossible to stop."</p><p>The former United midfielder added: "The problem for Villa is they are running out of games and the goal difference is a problem. They are well organised, but they give up late goals and that will be costly. There will be one or two twists but where you are in a position to draw, don’t lose, keep the momentum and city near you. You have seen the reaction of city, they know what a big moment it was last kick of the game."</p><p>"</p>

WHAT ROY KEANE SAID

<p>The 27-year-old forward has thrived since joining the Villans in January, and his four goals and six assists have sparked reports he could sign a permanent deal with the Birmingham club, although Aston Villa would have to meet the player's £40m ($49.5m/€48.8m) buy option which was included in the loan deal.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Emery's men will be back in action on Saturday as they face Crystal Palace in the FA Cup semi-final.</p>
