Clearly I&#8217;ve learned a lot and it&#8217;s a new way of football. I enjoy it all. I think it makes me a better player.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To be honest, it&#8217;s a great experience. I&#8217;ve always been a huge admirer of Barcelona. Most people of my age have seen them play since we were younger, so it&#8217;s great football, great players and we just want to win as much as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Marcus Rashford celebrates Barcelona&#8217;s score against Newcastle (Photo: Clive Mason\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>He added: &#8220;I&#8217;m full of excitement.
