Tuchel said that PSG \u2018value\u2019 Rashford a lot but also mentioned that the habit of Rashford scoring against PSG is getting \u2018annoying\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cWe value him very much when he plays in England and not Parc des Princes, honestly, because (him scoring against us) gets a little bit annoying,\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe guy is a very young adult who takes his responsibility on and off the pitch very impressively. I have met him as an opponent three times and every time I\u2019ve met a calm and humble guy and a nice person, which is amazing. I like this mixture a lot,\u201d<\/strong> added Tuchel<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the qualities Rashford brings to the table as a footballer, Tuchel said, <strong>\u201cFor me personally, the sporting side is clear \u2013 he\u2019s a big threat with his speed, with his ability to score, with his determination and his finishing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cHe\u2019s very precise, taking shots inside and outside of the box. He is super rapid on counter-attacks and strong in the air with headers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cHe\u2019s had a big impact and it\u2019s nice to see guys like him from the academy having such a big impact in a big, big club like United.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rashford scored the winner against PSG in the 1st group stage match at Parc Des Princes. The Englishman also scored against the French Champions in March 2019 to complete a famous comeback from 2-0 down in the first leg to win 3-1.<\/p>\n<p>If United beat PSG, then Tuchel\u2019s side are in great danger of dropping down to the Europa League.
