Midfielder Darren Fletcher has revealed the prospect of becoming the most successful club in English football history is driving Manchester United on to reclaim the Premier League title.

The Red Devils currently stand level on 18 top-flight titles with bitter rivals Liverpool following their last success in 2009.

Last season Chelsea took their Premier League crown and Fletcher believes the prospect of becoming the undisputed kings of English football can push United past the finishing post this season.

"This club is all about breaking records and achieving a new status," said the Scotland captain.

"To be the most successful team in the English game would mean everything to the club and to the fans especially.

"They loved it when we equalled Liverpool's record, so to beat it would mean an awful lot to them.

"As players, we want to put right the disappointment of not winning the league last year."
