No player scored more than Zlatan Ibrahmovic's five strikes in six December fixtures to take his tally to 50 league goals in 2016.

Starting the month with a flicked lob at Goodison Park the Manchester United forward got the late winner at Crystal Palace, while scoring twice against West Bromwich Albion and once at home to Sunderland.

The Swede has 13 Premier League goals and his first at The Hawthorns is also up for Carling Goal of the Month.

“I had a fantastic year," Ibrahimovic told manutd.com. "I came to the Premier League and people thought it would not be possible [for me to succeed], but like always, I make them eat their words!”

You can vote for Ibrahimovic as your EA SPORTS Player for December in the poll above before midnight 9 January.
