Ten Hag and Rashford up for Premier League awards

The Reds went unbeaten during the month in all competitions – although only league fixtures count towards these particular prizes – winning three and drawing one of the four Premier League matches we played.

Home triumphs over Crystal Palace and Leicester City, an away win over Leeds United and a draw against the Yorkshire side at Old Trafford mean United picked up 10 points from a possible 12 to sit third in the league table after 24 matches.

The Reds also lifted the Carabao Cup after our 2-0 win over Newcastle at Wembley, ensuring a successful month for Erik, and one that could result in him lifting his second Manager of the Month award of the season – after his September win.

Ten Hag is nominated alongside Spurs’ Antonio Conte and Fulham’s Marco Silva, after both London clubs also impressed in February.

The vote for Manager of the Month is now open, and you can back Erik here.

In addition to Erik, United are also represented on the shortlist for the Player of the Month award, by Rashford.

Our no.10 has continued his red-hot form and scored a remarkable five goals in our four Premier League matches across the month.

Marcus notched in each of our fixtures, starting the month by getting on the scoresheet in the win against Palace, before scoring home and away against Leeds – both of which were powerful headers. 

He capped off February with a superb brace against Leicester at Old Trafford.

While his goal against Newcastle at Wembley does not count towards this award, five strikes in four league matches speaks for itself.

Joining Marcus on the shortlist are strikers Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa), Manor Solomon (Fulham) and Kelechi Iheanacho (Leicester), as well as Spurs defender Emerson Royal and Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno.

Vote for Rashford to win the award here.

Both the Manager of the Month and Player of the Month votes close at 12:00 GMT on Monday 6 March, and the winners will be announced on Friday 10 March.

Good luck to you both, Erik and Marcus!
