Manchester City sit top of the Premier League on goal difference, though, with Sergio Aguero having fired them to four wins out of four in September - scoring five goals and adding three assists during that period - and earning a spot among the contenders in the process.

Aguero's team-mate, Kevin de Bruyne, also features among the high-profile names, having contributed three assists in City's free-scoring run, also scoring the winner in their vital 1-0 win away at Chelsea on the final day of the month.

Newly-promoted sides Newcastle and Brighton also have representatives among the list of nominees.

Jamaal Lascelles' impressive showings at the back for the Magpies, scoring two goals and keeping one clean sheet, have not gone unrecognised, while Pascal Gross scored two goals to help earn Brighton their first ever Premier League win - a 3-1 victory over West Brom.
