In the early hours of September 2, Beijing time (UTC+8), Manchester City officially announced the shortlist for the club's Player of the Month for August, with Gvardiol, Guehi, and Cherki among the nominees.

Manchester City's August Player of the Month Nominees:

Gvardiol

Despite playing as a left-back, Gvardiol has been a nightmare for opposing defenses, with the Croatian defender actively pushing forward to support attacks and appearing highly comfortable in the final third.

He scored a late winner against Bournemouth and provided an assist against Crystal Palace, while also diligently fulfilling his defensive duties off the ball, proving his all-around value.

Guehi

His performance against Bournemouth may represent Maresca's most significant tactical adjustment to date. Guehi, originally a center-back, was paired with Elliot Anderson in midfield and performed seamlessly throughout the match, even contributing to an equalizing goal.

He then returned to Selhurst Park in his familiar defensive role. Despite it being his former home, Guehi played a crucial part in Manchester City's victory over his former club, Crystal Palace.

Cherki

In the first round against Bournemouth, he came off the bench in the second half when Manchester City were trailing. He provided two assists, including a stunning run and pass that helped Gvardiol score the winning goal, turning the tide of the match.

Days later, he started in the away match against Crystal Palace, controlling the game from the outset. His two brilliant goals played a key role in the team's 4-1 victory.
