De Zerbi wins October's Premier League Manager of the Month

Roberto De Zerbi has been named the Barclays Premier League Manager of the Month for October.

Winless in the league heading into the month, an unbeaten run with one draw and three straight victories has seen our Head Coach claim the award for the first time in his career.

It began with the 1-1 draw at Manchester United when we responded from going a goal and a man down to earn a deserved late point through Dominic Solanke's stoppage-time leveller before our opening win came in the 3-1 home success over Coventry City off the back of a productive training camp in Marbella, Spain. Goals from James Maddison, Omar Marmoush and Ben Davies as well as Dejan Kulusevski's return only adding to the feel-good factor at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

That positive momentum carried over into our subsequent trip to rivals Chelsea where a Mike Penders' own goal and a superb solo effort from Mathys Tel capped a team performance of the ages to come away with only our second victory at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League era.

Then a dominant, professional display helped see off 10-man Crystal Palace with set-piece goals from Archie Gray and Jan Paul van Hecke securing a consecutive 2-0 scoreline to round off an impressive month under the Italian.

Previously nominated for the award in January and March 2023 as well as a Manager of the Year nomination during his time at Brighton, this is the first time Roberto has won the monthly prize and becomes our 10th different manager to do so - the most amongst Premier League clubs.

Congratulations, Roberto!
