Vardy, Ranieri win Premier League's November awards
Leicester City duo Jamie Vardy and Claudio Ranieri received the Premier League's monthly awards following an impressive November for the table-toppers.
Vardy becomes the first player to win the Barclays Player of the Month award in successive months since Tottenham forward Harry Kane achieved the feat in January and February. He's just the fourth player in Premier League history to capture back-to-back awards.
Meanwhile, Ranieri picks up his first Manager of the Month award this season - his first since 2004 when he was in charge of Chelsea.
