Man Utd striker Rashford: Christmas programme can change everything

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford insists they can turn their season around over Christmas.

Rashford knows the glut of games can shoot United up the table.

"We have to try to keep up the intensity that we've shown in the last couple of [Premier League] games and keep improving," he told MUTV.

"It's always a good feeling to see the ball hit the back of the net but, in the last game, I was happy anyway. I was happy with the performance in the first half. I think, at the beginning of the second half, it dropped a little bit, which is natural when we've had a run of tough games, but we managed to lift it again which was important for us.

"I just want to see the team improving, and for us to improve ourselves as individuals, so we can become more consistent. That's what we've been lacking and that's why we're not higher up in the table. The Christmas period is always busy so consistency is the main thing. The look of the season can change in just this one month, so we need to pick the points up and keep improving.“
