    SEE: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Decision Over Rashford And Lukaku Ahead Of Spurs Clash



    The Red Devils come into Sunday's game in top form
    Manchester United star Romelu Lukaku looks set to start Sunday's game against Spurs on the bench.
    The ex-Everton man has had a frustrating start to the season at Old Trafford but he has turned the corner in recent weeks following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's appointment as boss.
    According to the Daily Star , the club legend, who replaced Jose Mourinho in the hosteat last month, has decided that Marcus Rashford is now the club's No.1 striker.
    The England international would often be utilised out wide by the Portuguese boss but it has now been reported that Solskjaer has told the youngster he wants him playing centrally.
    That means that he will more than likely start upfront against the Lilywhites at Wembley this weekend, with Lukaku having to make do with a place on the substitutes' bench.
    The Belgian international has scored in his last three games for United, with his strikes against Bournemouth and Newcastle United coming after he was introduced in the second half.
    If he does indeed start on the sidelines against Mauricio Pochettino's side, Toby Alderweireld is well aware of the threat he possesses if he comes on.
    "He scores so many goals all the time that people get used to it," said the centre-back, as reported by the Independent .
    "If for a period he does not score or things do not go his way, of course, he plays for a big team in the Premier League so everybody expects a lot of him.
    "But he is coming back to form. He is an unbelievable striker.
    "I have played with him in the national team for a couple of years and he is a great person, too."
