Tottenham's Harry Kane applauds fans as he is substituted
City, who are third in the table, were unbeaten last month,
winning all three of their Premier League games, scoring eight
goals and conceding once, against West Ham United, Swansea City
and Bournemouth.
Guardiola, who picked up the award for the first time, beat
Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho, Chelsea head coach
Antonio Conte and West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis.
Meanwhile, the 23-year-old Kane received his award after
propelling Tottenham to second in the table by netting four
goals in three league matches, including a hat-trick in last
month's win over Stoke City.
"It's a great honor," Kane told the Premier League's website.
"I'm in good form at the minute, I feel confident going into
every match."
The England forward won the award by edging out Manchester City
duo Gabriel Jesus and David Silva, West Brom defender Gareth
McAuley, Hull City goalkeeper Eldin Jakupovic and Everton
striker Romelu Lukaku.
