Nominations have been announced for the Premier League's Player and Manager of the Month awards for August, with Watford and Liverpool seemingly dominating the pick of players.

Watford and Liverpool have won all three games so far, alongside Chelsea and Tottenham, hence managers of all four clubs - Javi Gracia, Jurgen Klopp, Maurizio Sarri and Maurizio Pochettino respectively - have been nominated for the Manager of the Month award.

For Player of the Month, however, Sadio Mane and Virgil Van Dijk make up the Liverpool contingent, joining Watford's Roberto Pereyra who has scored three goals in three games so far this season.

Spurs' Lucas Moura and Marcos Alonso join them, alongside Manchester City's Benjamin Mendy and Cardiff goalkeeper Neil Etheridge.

Bournemouth's Callum Wilson (v West Ham), Watford's Andre Gray (v Burnley), Manchester City's David Silva (v Huddersfield), Southampton's Ryan Bertrand (v Leicester) and Jean Michael Seri (v Burnley) make up the nominations for August's Goal of the Month award.
