Pep Guardiola picks up Premier League award for October

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has won the Premier League's Manager of the Month award for October.

City are yet to lose a game in the top flight this season and after three wins and 13 goals were recorded last month, the selection panel went with the obvious choice.

The league leaders returned after the international break to register a 7-2 victory over Stoke City at the Etihad Stadium, before that success was followed by a 3-0 triumph over Burnley.

On the final weekend of the month, West Bromwich Albion put up more of a fight against the North-West giants, but City eventually prevailed by a 3-2 scoreline.

Arsenal's Arsene Wenger, Burnley's Sean Dyche and Tottenham Hotspur's Mauricio Pochettino had also been shortlisted for the accolade.
