City played four matches last month, winning three and losing one, with Sunday’s 4-1 win at the London Stadium seeing us move beyond the 100-goal mark with three games to spare.
Everton’s Sam Allardyce, Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson, caretaker West Brom boss Darren Moore and Manchester United’s Jose Mourinho have also been shortlisted.
If he wins, it would be the fifth time Pep has landed the prize in what has been an historic season for the Club.
