Guardiola was nominated for the month of the month despite missing two games

After surgery on August 22, Guardiola rested in Barcelona and was absent from two wins against Sheffield 2-1 on August 27 and Fulham 5-1 on September 2. Assistant Juanma Lillo held the table for him and directly directed Man City in these two matches.

However, because he is a member of Man City, Guardiola was still nominated for the best coach of August in the Premier League. This month, before beating Sheffield, Man City defeated Newcastle 0-1, Burnley 0-3 and was the only club to get 12 absolute points.

The Spanish coach has won this individual title 11 times, in February 2017, September 2017, October 2017, November 2017, December 2017, February 2019, April 2019, January 2021, February 2021, November 2021 and December 2021.

This time, Guardiola will compete with Mikel Arteta, Jurgen Klopp, David Moyes and Ange Postecoglou. Among them, Arteta is also a strong candidate when Arsenal went undefeated in August, winning 2-1 against Nottingham Forest, 1-0 against Crystal Palace and drawing 2-2 with Fulham. Similarly, Klopp and Liverpool maintain an unbeaten record, drawing 1-1 with Chelsea, winning 3-1 against Bournemouth and 2-1 against Newcastle.

Moyes led West Ham to draw 1-1 with Bournemouth and then crushed Chelsea and Brighton with the same score of 3-1, despite the loss of key midfielder Declan Rice this summer. Meanwhile, Postecoglou - the first Australian coach to work in the Premier League - made an impressive start when helping Tottenham draw Brentford 2-2, beat Man Utd, Bournemouth 2-0, even though there was no longer captain striker Harry Kane.

Meanwhile, the title of Premier League Player of the Month in August is a competition between Taiwo Awoniyi (three goals, for Nottingham Forest), Jarrod Bowen (two goals, one assist - West Ham), James Maddison (one goal , two assists - Tottenham ), Bryan Mbeumo (three goals - Brentford), Kaoru Mitoma (one goal, two assists - Brighton), Rodri (two goals, one assist - Man City).

The Best Goal of the Month award is expected to go to Kaoru Mitoma, with a solo masterpiece from the middle of the field, breaking through the middle, passing four players and scoring in the 4-1 win over Wolves in round two on September 19. /8.
