Manchester City's outgoing manager Manuel Pellegrini and Southampton counterpart Ronald Koeman are up for the Premier League Manager of the Month award for January.

Pellegrini, who announced earlier this week that he would be departing the Etihad at the end of the season, was undefeated in the month and led his charges to a 4-0 win over Crystal Palace as they keep pace in the title race.

Meanwhile, Koeman's side overcame a poor run of form to notch up three league wins in January, including a famous victory at Old Trafford.

The other nominees include Slaven Bilic, whose West Ham United side secured a victory over Liverpool and a draw with Man City, and Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino for his efforts in putting Spurs in the title race.
