Ten Hag battles Conte, O’Neil for EPL Manager of the Month award

Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag tops the list of three men who oversaw impressive results in September 2022 and have been nominated for the Premier League Manager of the Month award.

The Dutchman has, after a slow beginning to the season, transformed Manchester United’s fortunes, beating Leicester City before ending Arsenal’s perfect start to take his side up to fifth.

He will be challenged by accomplished coach, Tottenham Hotspur’s Antonio Conte who side scored a league-high eight goals in September.

Wins over Fulham and Leicester City took them to 17 points from seven matches, their joint-best start to a Premier League season.

Also in the mix is Bournemouth interim head coach Gary O’Neil who has revitalised a team who lost 9-0 at Liverpool last month.

Since joining he has masterminded a 3-2 win at Nottingham Forest, after his side trailed 2-0, and a draw at Newcastle United.
