MARCUS RASHFORD equalled a record held by both Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo then fired out a rallying cry to his team-mates.
The Manchester United forward scored three times in four top-flight games in January and has just been named the Premier League’s Player of the Month for the second time this season.
That makes the 25-year-old the third player from the club to win the accolade twice since the start of last season.
Rashford also won it in September after two goals and two assists in his two outings.
Despite the struggles throughout the 2021/22 season, both David de Gea and Ronaldo scooped the player of the month accolade twice apiece.

Now England international Rashford has joined an exclusive list of United players to have won two Premier League Player of the Month awards in the same season.
As well as the two above, he is accompanied alongside greats Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Robin van Persie, Ryan Giggs and Bruno Fernandes.
And after also clinching the club’s player of the month prize as well, he took to Twitter to express his joy.
Rashford wrote: “The last month couldn't have gone better for me.
“On a personal note, it's the first time I've won these awards together and hopefully not the last.

“Thank you to my team-mates, the coaches, my family and the fans for helping me to win these awards.”
Then, with a bumper Europa League showdown with Barcelona approaching, a Carabao Cup Final to look forward too plus Premier League clashes with Crystal Palace, Leeds and Leicester, he added: “Now it's time to look forward to the next group of games and not the past month.
“We have a lot of big games starting tomorrow.”
