# Chelsea fans react to Ross Barkley’s Player of the Month nomination

**Chelsea midfielder Ross Barkley has been nominated for Premier League’s Player of the Month award for October.**

The England international had a mesmeric month in the league in which he played three times, scoring three and assisting three from the heart of Chelsea’s three-man-midfield as the Blues maintained their unbeaten start to the new Premier League season.

The former Everton ace has been a starter under new manager Maurizio Sarri and has been provided with the freedom to roam in between the lines and aid the attack as much as possible – it is this role which has helped him be so productive so far this season.

With such displays against Southampton and Burnley, alongside a cameo off the bench against Manchester United in which he bagged a late equaliser, the 24-year-old appears to be becoming a favourite among the Chelsea faithful.
