Thomas Tuchel has claimed the Barclays Manager of the Month award for October 2021.

The Chelsea head coach wins the prize for the second time, having first done so in March 2021, after leading his side to victory in all four of their matches in the month.

Tuchel started October with a 3-1 victory at home to Southampton, followed by a hard-fought 1-0 success at Brentford.

He then oversaw a 7-0 triumph over Norwich City, before ending the month with a 3-0 win at Newcastle United as they claimed a third successive clean sheet.

The 48-year-old German topped a four-man shortlist, beating Jurgen Klopp, David Moyes and Patrick Vieira after votes from the public were combined with those of a panel of football experts.
