Erik ten Hag is open to moving Marcus Rashford up front after he scored his second goal in as many games as a striker for Manchester United.
Ten Hag surprisingly started Rashford in his weakest position on the right wing against Leeds but switched him to the opposite flank at the start of the second half with United 1-0 down.
Leeds went 2-0 up through a Raphael Varane own goal in the 48th minute and United striker Wout Weghorst was substituted in the 59th minute for Jadon Sancho. Sancho lined up on the left and Rashford moved inside, where he scored his 20th goal of the season three minutes later from Diogo Dalot's cross.

Anthony Martial missed the 21st United match out of 35 this term in the draw with Leeds and Weghorst only has one goal in seven games. With Sancho back in the squad, Rashford could take Weghorst's place as the No.9 against Leeds at Elland Road on Sunday.
"It's difficult to analyse but I think after we make that change it's different for the opponent," Ten Hag said. "It's difficult for the opponent because the dynamic changes. The defenders are in a certain way, they are anticipating a certain attack and then all of a sudden everything is changing.
"When we moved there, not only Rashford but we bring in Sancho and we bring in Pellistri. And that changes the game, as we did on Saturday as well. And we benefit from that situation, I think."
