Ghana’s fit-again midfielder Michael Essien is making great strides in the race for the first player of the month title of the season in England.
Essien is vying to win the first PFA Fans' Premier League player of the month title this season.
The Chelsea star is back to his brilliant best after a season on the sidelines with a ligament injury, adding goals to his all-round powerful midfield play.
Didier Drogba and Florent Malouda join 'the bison' in the running for the month's top honour, with the duo in scintillating form for the free-scoring Blues.
Spurs midfielder Gareth Bale made a great start to the current campaign, building on some fine performances at the end of last season.
Pushed forward into the left midfield position, the Welshman's energetic displays in the League and Champions League have been recognised by the fans.
Manchester United talisman Dimitar Berbatov is also in the running, with the Bulgarian's six-goal keeping the Red Devils in-touch at the top of the table.
