I analysed over 400 shots from Marcus Rashford since 15/16 and found that the more he used the round-legged instep technique — I wrote extensively about this before — the better his goalscoring rate has been.

His current season's form is no surprise.
Note:

The side a player's node is closer to the greater the share he has. For example, in the 16/17, 17/18 and 18/19 seasons, ~70% of Rashford's shots were laced which is why his nodes are there. If they're in the middle it means there's a 33% split share across all three types.
The round-legged instep:

Notice how the leg comes across the other.
