Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has been nominated for the PFA Fans’ Player of the Month after his heroics against both Chelsea and West Ham in October.

Arsenal duo Alexis Sanchez and Nacho Monreal have also been nominated with both on the score-sheet against Everton while the Spanish full-back grabbed another against Swansea at Emirates Stadium.

Zaha, who had not featured since an injury picked up on the opening day of the season, returned to the Palace fold against Chelsea to score the winner and earn Roy Hodgson’s side their first points of the season, before bagging a 97th minute equaliser against the Hammers at Selhurst Park.

Also nominated for the monthly award and Manchester City pairing Kevin De Bruyne and Leroy Sane after they contributed to three wins from three during October. Rounding off the nominations is Burnley shot-stopper Nick Pope as he continued his fine form deputising for Tom Heaton.
