Tuchel, Benitez, Nuno and Moyes in line for award

Thomas Tuchel, Rafael Benitez, Nuno Espirito Santo and David Moyes have all been shortlisted for the first Premier League manager of the month award of the season after unbeaten starts.

Chelsea head coach Tuchel has so far guided his side to two wins and a spirited draw with 10 men against Liverpool at Anfield.

New Everton manager Benitez also has seven points from three unbeaten games, including victories over Southampton and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Nuno's start to life as Tottenham boss has brought three successive 1-0 wins for his table-topping side, who have the league's only 100% record.

And Moyes has overseen two wins and a draw during a free-scoring start to West Ham's season, with their tally of 10 goals the best in the division.
