As for Rashford's numbers, he scored five in four fixtures last month versus Crystal Palace, Leeds United, Leicester City and Leeds United. United won against the former three while drawing against the latter. He, so far, has 14 goals this season, while the chart is led by Ivan Toney (15), Harry Kane (18) and Erling Haaland (27). He formerly won the award last September and January this year.
On the other hand, the Red Devils head coach Erik ten Hag has been adjudged the Manager of the Month for the second time in what happens to be his debut season in England. United did not concede a meeting last month, as it remains firmly placed third in the league table and well in contention for the top-four spot.
