Raheem Sterling has been named Premier League Player of the Month after helping Manchester City storm into an unassailable lead at the top of the table in December.
Sterling, 27, played the full 90 minutes in five of City's seven league fixtures last month, registering five goals and an assist for Pep Guardiola's side.
His impressive form played a key part in victories over Aston Villa, Watford, Wolves, Newcastle and Leicester, results which strengthened their grip on top spot.
City now sit 10 points clear at the Premier League summit with 17 matches to play, although Liverpool can reduce the gap to eight points by winning their game-in-hand.
