Manchester City Receive Triple Premier League Nominations for November Awards
Manchester City’s strong performances throughout November have earned the club
three major Premier League award nominations, recognising the team’s attacking brilliance,
individual excellence, and managerial influence during a busy month of action.
The month delivered a mix of convincing victories and testing challenges for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Commanding home wins over Bournemouth and Liverpool showcased City’s sharpness in attack,
while a tight defeat against Newcastle United served as a reminder of the Premier League’s intensity
as the winter schedule ramped up.
Manchester City’s November Performances
City opened the month with a solid 3-1 win over Bournemouth at the Etihad, a result that helped build
momentum heading into one of their most complete displays of the season — a
3-0 victory against Liverpool.
Jeremy Doku stole the spotlight in that match with a stunning individual goal, his only strike of the month,
but one impressive enough to earn national recognition.
Though November ended with a narrow 2-1 loss to Newcastle at St James’ Park, the overall quality of
City’s performances has now been rewarded across three Premier League award categories.
Jeremy Doku: Double Nominee
Winger Jeremy Doku has earned two nominations:
- Premier League Player of the Month
- Goal of the Month for his sensational solo effort vs Liverpool
He joins a strong list of Player of the Month contenders including
Harvey Barnes, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Bruno Fernandes, Morgan Gibbs-White,
Reece James, Declan Rice, and Igor Thiago.
Doku’s explosive dribbling and direct attacking play were key features of City’s November performances,
and his Liverpool goal is widely expected to be one of the leading contenders for the monthly honour.
Pep Guardiola Nominated for Manager of the Month
City boss Pep Guardiola has also been nominated for the
Premier League Manager of the Month, reflecting the stability and growing dominance City showed
during November despite injuries and squad rotation.
He is shortlisted alongside several top-performing managers:
Mikel Arteta, Unai Emery, Fabian Hurzeler, Enzo Maresca, and Marco Silva.
With City climbing in form and confidence, Guardiola’s nomination highlights the team’s steady progression
heading into a demanding December schedule.
