Chelsea trio nominated for Premier League accolades for December

Yet again, the Chelsea men are high in the shortlist for last month’s Premier League Player of the Month and Manager of the Month award. Unlike in November, none of our goals were nominated for the Goal of the Month prize, but we’ll be fine with the two others.

Antonio Conte has made the nominees for the Manager of the Month award for the third time in a row after winning all six games of December. Manchester City, West Bromwich, Sunderland, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth and finally Stoke City were all taken down with a magnificent goal difference of 13-3. Statistically he’s the likeliest winner once again, as Jose Mourinho – the manager with the second best record from the month – was able to win ‘just’ five out of the possible six.

While Conte is tipped to win the third manager of the month award in a row, Diego Costa could be winning his second monthly accolade of the season in December, with Blues vice-captain Gary Cahill also named in the shortlist after impressive four clean-sheets. Costa tapped in as many as four goals and one assist despite missing one game due to a suspension. Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Dele Alli – however – did even better by bagging five goals from the month.
