Manchester United: Erik ten Hag wins manager of the month, Marcus Rashford named player of the month

Manchester United's Erik ten Hag and Marcus Rashford have won the Premier League's manager and player of the month awards for September.

Ten Hag, 52, lost his first two competitive matches following his move from Ajax, but has since lead United to four consecutive league wins.

Victories against Liverpool and Southampton in August preceded wins over Leicester and Arsenal this month.

Marcus Rashford, 24, scored twice against Arsenal to fuel United's rally.

Ten Hag's decision to move Rashford into a more central striking role has been a major factor in their improvement.

The England forward, who was unable to play during the recent international break due to injury, set up Jadon Sancho for the only goal in the victory at Leicester and assisted Anthony's opener at home against Arsenal.
