'Rashford could be like Owen at 1998 World Cup'

Former England defender Danny Mills says inexperience shouldn't stand in the way of Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford going to Euro 2016 with England.

The 18-year-old has scored six goals in 11 appearances for the Red Devils, after making his debut in February.

Mills said: "He hasn't got that much less international experience than Jamie Vardy - Michael Owen didn't do too badly when he was inexperienced at the 1998 World Cup.

"He's in great form. Why not take him as a substitute over the likes of Daniel Sturridge?"
