James Garner and David Moyes nominated for Premier League monthly awards

James Garner and David Moyes have been nominated for Premier League awards for the month of March.

Garner, who received his maiden senior England call-up during this international break, has been shortlisted for the Premier League Player of the Month award while David Moyes, who led the Blues to victories over Burnley and Chelsea, has received a Manager of the Month nomination.

For Moyes, the highlight of the month was beating Chelsea 3-0 to ensure lift-off at Hill Dickinson Stadium. It was one of the Toffees’ finest performances of the season and saw them maintain their eighth position in the standings with 46 points - three shy of Liverpool in fifth.

The Toffees also held their own against league leaders Arsenal away from home before suffering a double blow right at the end. They remain in the hunt for European qualification with fifth place expected to be enough to make it to the Champions League next season.

Mikel Arteta, Eddie Howe, Fabian Hurzeler and Regis Le Bris are nominated along with the Everton boss.

Meanwhile, the latest nomination adds to what has been a momentous couple of weeks for Garner. He earned a first senior England call-up last week, provided the assist for Beto’s opener against Chelsea and is now in the running for a Premier League player of the month award.

The 24-year-old also played at right-back against Arsenal and had registered an assist against Burnley as well. He is competing with the likes of Bruno Fernandes, Morgan Gibbs-White, Anthony Gordon, Alex Iwobi, David Raya and Danny Welbeck for the award.
