Manchester United supporters believe Marcus Rashford’s reunion with\u00a0former fianc\u00e9e Lucia Loi could be the reason behind his upturn in form.<\/p>\n
Rashford scored his second Premier League goal of the season in United’s 3-0 victory over Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday that moves Erik ten Hag’s side to within six points of league leaders, Arsenal.<\/p>\n
It was the United winger’s first match back after he was spotted on a date in Manchester with\u00a0with Lucia at a city centre restaurant, and club supporters believe his love life is destined to help performances.<\/p>\n
The pair who\u00a0who met and began dating at school have shared an on\/off relationship with Rashford proposing in May last year before eventually separating again.<\/p>\n
Their most recent outing coincides with the 26-year-old returning to the scoresheet for United after he was trusted to take a decisive penalty against Everton and England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.<\/p>\n

United skipper, Bruno Fernandes, explained he decided to hand Rashford penalty responsibilities because he ‘needed confidence’ after a difficult start to the new season.<\/p>\n
Optimistic club fans have drawn comparisons with Rashford’s improved performances when he has previously been in a relationship with his school sweetheart and his on pitch struggles when single.<\/p>\n
Rashford’s best years at United have come while he has been partnered with Lucia and recent struggles have been highlighted by fans who think his off-field romance could be to blame.<\/p>\n
The United superstar achieved consecutive seasons of over 30 goal contributions before splitting with Lucia. An underperforming year followed before the pair reunited and Rashford then went on to enjoy his best campaign at the club yet last season.<\/p>\n
He has similarly struggled in recent months, appearing to be suffering with low confidence and poor composure in front of goal, but has been consistently picked by Ten Hag in a show of trust.<\/p>\n

One United supporter posting on X, said: ‘As soon as Rashford got back with Lucia, he scored #results’.<\/p>\n
Another added: ‘Rashford should never breakup with Lucia until he decides to end his professional career.’<\/p>\n
A third hopeful fan explained: ‘Some girlfriends bring you good luck, example is Lucia Loi in Rashford life…..whenever they’re not together his performance will diminish once together he’ll start balling. Please don’t go again.’<\/p>\n
Another similarly stated: ‘Thank you Lucia Loi for your magic on Marcus Rashford . Please make sure he don\u2019t runaway from you again.’<\/p>\n
