Online fans
will now be allowed to cast their votes for the Player and Coach of the Month
Awards according to the Premier League.
The votes for
the month awards were previously done by just former players and managers but a
new system has been initiated which will allow fans to vote.
A shortlist of
players and coaches will be released and votes will follow after to decide the
winner.
Votes from
fans, the panel- of former players and managers- and the captain of each
Premier League club will determine the winner after the shortlist.
For the first
of this season, Chelsea’s Antonio Conte, Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola, Hull
City’s Mike Phelan and Manchester United’s Jose Mourinho have all been
shortlisted for August.
The first
Player of the Month award for this season will be contested between Hull’s
Curtis Davies, Chelsea’s Eden Hazard, City’s Raheem Sterling and United’s
Antonio Valencia.
It should also
be noted that this new voting method could favour players and coaches of the
bigger clubs as they have more online fans.LINK
