Jose Mourinho is Garry Monk's choice for Premier League's Manager of the Year award.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho should be named Manager of the Year, according to Swansea City counterpart Garry Monk.

Mourinho and Co. are on the verge of the Premier League title, with Chelsea one win away from top-flight honors in 2014-15.

And despite criticism of Chelsea's brand of football under Mourinho's guidance, Monk believes the Portuguese boss is "without doubt the manager of the year".

"Chelsea have won the League Cup and they are just about to win the league," said the 36-year-old.
