Five on shortlist for November PL Manager of the Month award

Five managers have been nominated for the Premier League Manager of the Month for November with Pep Guardiola leading the charge.

Guardiola, who won all of his four games last month, is joined by Burnley’s Sean Dyche, Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp, Manchester United’s Jose Mourinho, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte and Arsenal chief Arsene Wenger.

Chelsea boss Conte is one of three nominees to end the month with an unbeaten record, claiming three wins and a draw away to Liverpool.

Klopp guided Liverpool to three wins and a draw at Chelsea, while Guardiola won the award in September and October and would follow in the footsteps of Conte last season if he claimed his third straight prize.

Wenger guided Arsenal to wins over Tottenham, Huddersfield and Burnley, but was beaten at Man City.

Mourinho’s United lost at Chelsea, before recording three wins and Dyche claimed three wins and lost just once – away at Arsenal.

 The winner will be announced on December 15.
