Premier League: Alan Pardew and Sergio Aguero win November manager and player awards
Friday 12 December 2014 11:46, UK
Newcastle boss Alan Pardew has won the Barclays Premier League Manager of the Month award for November.
Pardew saw off strong competition from Manchester City's Manuel Pellegrini, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho and Burnley boss Sean Dyche who all enjoyed a successful month.
However, Newcastle's run of one defeat and three victories - including a 1-0 success against Liverpool - was enough to secure the vote for the Magpies manager.
"It is a huge honour to be named Barclays Premier League Manager of the Month," Pardew told the Newcastle's official website.
"It is nice to be recognised for our results but we will not get carried away by this and will do everything we can to make sure December is just as good a month for us
"Our recent form has been a real team effort both on and off the pitch. The players have been fantastic during this time and huge credit must also go to my staff, who work tirelessly behind the scenes."
Manchester City's Sergio Aguero beat fellow strikers Danny Ings of Burnley, Charlie Austin of QPR and Tottenham's Harry Kane to lift the Barclays Player of the Month award for November.
Argentina international Aguero scored three goals in four games during the month including the winner in the 1-0 victory over local rivals Manchester United.
The award is decided by members of the Barclays Panel - a group of former players, journalists and key football stakeholders.
