Bruno Guimaraes point in Eddie Howe and Pep Guardiola Manager of the Season debate

Former England goalkeeper Rob Green says Pep Guardiola will pip Eddie Howe to the Manager of the Season award with Manchester City on course to complete a sensational treble. City are in the final of the Champions League, the final of the FA Cup and can wrap up the Premier League title with a win over Chelsea this weekend.

Erling Haaland is the man Green tips to win the player of the year award after a record breaking campaign. The former Chelsea shot stopper has highlighted Bruno Guimaraes remarkable campaign in a black and white shirt despite being missed off the nominations list.

Newcastle United duo Sven Botman and Alexander Isak have been nominated for the Young Player of the Season award while Kieran Trippier is in contention for the Player of the Season award. Howe has been nominated for Manager of the Season but faces competition from Mikel Arteta, Roberto De Zerbi, Unai Emery, Pep Guardiola, and Marco Silva for the award.

Green told the Football Daily podcast: "Bruno Guimaraes has been brilliant for Newcastle. He's not going to get player of the season. Haaland is going to get player of the season.

"He's been the best player, the top striker, scored all the goals. Guardiola is going to win the league and get the trophy and rightly so.

"Coming back from a record number of points behind to take it [the Premier League title], yeah, I can guarantee that they will not just win the Premier League."
