    You’re telling me Pep or Klopp never had 3 months in a row where they were the best manager?

    The whole media frenzy around Ange is so strange

      How is it strange?

      -Unbeaten in his first 10 games at the club. 8 wins 2 draws.

      This is while:

      -It is his first season in this league

      -Our best player left the club

      -We have a new club captain and integrated a new keeper, left back, center back, as well as a new attacking midfielder.

      -Players such as Bissouma and Porro who didn’t impress last season have made massive strides and become key players in the squad.

      Why does it not deserve to be appreciated?

      He was the only manager that won all his games. There’s no way to give it to someone else this moth.

      There are less managers receiving it from clubs further down the table this past few years it feels like, doing more with less vibes. Also seems winning the award back to back is way more common.

      A quick look at this, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premier_League_Manager_of_the_Month#Multiple_winners

      It happened occasionally that a manager would win back to back in the 2000s but rarely, seems like around 2016 onwards its become much more common.

      Its wild to me that Postecoglou now has the same amount or more awards as league winners like Conte and Mancini. Only 1 less than 3x league winner Mourinho. But also at the same time Arteta has 2 more than Mourinho!
