EA SPORTS Player of the Month shortlist
Erling Haaland (Man City)
P3 W3 D0 L0 G7 A0
The Norwegian has enjoyed a phenomenal start to the season, scoring seven goals in just three matches, the most a player has ever netted in a team's first three Premier League fixtures of a campaign. These included successive hat-tricks against Ipswich Town and West Ham United, as well as a goal at Chelsea.
Bryan Mbeumo (Brentford)
P3 W2 D0 L1 G3 A0
Mbeumo registered three goals in as many matches. He scored the first in a 2-1 opening-weekend win over Crystal Palace before bagging a brace as the Bees beat Southampton 3-1. His three goals came from just six shots, giving him a 50 per cent conversion rate, while his seven chances created were bettered by only seven players.

Amadou Onana (Aston Villa)
P3 W2 D0 L1 G2 A0
The Belgian central midfielder has already equalled his goal tally from the whole of 2023/24, scoring twice in three matches after signing for Aston Villa from Everton. His goals were both openers in away wins, at West Ham and Leicester City.
Cole Palmer (Chelsea)
P2 W1 D0 L1 G1 A3
The 2023/24 Hublot Young Player of the Season has picked up where he left off. He set up three goals in only two matches, the joint-most assists by any player in August, as well as scoring with a brilliant lob in a 6-2 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers.
David Raya (Arsenal)
P3 W2 D1 L0 CS2 S9
Arsenal conceded only one goal all month and that was in part thanks to the brilliance of their goalkeeper, who made nine saves that included two incredible stops, one from Jorgen Strand Larsen in a 2-0 opening-weekend win over Wolves and another on the goalline to deny Ollie Watkins in a 2-0 victory at Aston Villa. Both saves were when the score was 0-0.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)
P3 W2 D1 L0 G1 A3
Only Haaland bettered the winger's four direct goal involvements in August. He became the first player to assist a goal in each of Arsenal's first three matches of a Premier League season since Thierry Henry in 2004/05, while he also scored in a win over Wolves.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
P2 W2 D0 L0 G2 A1
The Egyptian looks back to his brilliant best this season. He set up the first Premier League goal of the Arne Slot era before scoring in the same match, a 2-0 win at Ipswich Town. It was his league-leading ninth goal on the opening weekend of a Premier League season. He followed that up with another goal in a 2-0 win over Brentford.
Danny Welbeck (Brighton)
P3 W2 D1 L0 G2 A1
The Brighton & Hove Albion forward has been at the heart of his side's unbeaten start to the season. He scored and assisted in a 3-0 win at Everton, before putting the Seagulls ahead against former side Manchester United en route to a 2-1 success.
Barclays Manager of the Month shortlist
Mikel Arteta (Arsenal)
P3 W2 D1 L0 GD+4
Arteta's Arsenal won two and drew one of their August Premier League matches, securing back-to-back 2-0 victories over Wolverhampton Wanderers and Aston Villa. In the win at Villa, Arsenal were perhaps fortunate to be level before Arteta changed the game by bringing on Leandro Trossard, who scored within two minutes of entering the play. In their other match they drew 1-1 at home to unbeaten Brighton & Hove Albion despite playing nearly all of the second half with 10 men after Declan Rice's red card.
Pep Guardiola (Man City)
P3 W3 D0 L0 GD+7
The 2023/24 Barclays Manager of the Season has picked up where he left off last campaign, starting Manchester City's title defence with three victories from three matches, winning at Chelsea and West Ham United either side of a turnaround triumph over Ipswich Town. Guardiola's Man City scored nine goals in August, three more than any other team.

Fabian Hurzeler (Brighton)
P3 W2 D1 L0 GD+4
The youngest permanent head coach in Premier League history, at 31, is on the shortlist after going unbeaten in his first three Premier League matches with Brighton. Wins at Everton and at home to Manchester United were followed by a 1-1 draw at Arsenal, meaning the Seagulls ended August second in the table having gone unbeaten in their opening three matches of a top-flight season for just a second time.
Arne Slot (Liverpool)
P2 W2 D0 L0 GD+4
New Liverpool head coach Slot became the first Reds manager to win both of his first two league matches since Graeme Souness in 1991. His team scored four goals without conceding across two August matches, beating Ipswich Town 2-0 and Brentford 2-0. Slot's Liverpool were one of only two teams, along with Man City, to end August with a 100 per cent winning record.
