Chelsea: Blues pair scoop November awards

Jose Mourinho and Arjen Robben have scooped the manager and player awards for November after steering Chelsea to the top of the Premiership.

Mourinho has won the Barclays Manager of the Month Award and flying Dutchman Robben has picked up the Barclays Player of the Month gong.

Robben has been in dazzling form since his return from injury, adding a new dimension to Chelsea's attack and helping the Blues pick up 10 points out of a possible 12.

Mourinho steered to his side to comprehensive away wins at Fulham (4-1) and Charlton (4-0), a 1-0 home win over Everton in which Robben scored the winner and a 2-2 draw with Bolton.

Chelsea's 11 goals in four matches, extending an unbeaten run to seven matches, have helped them achieve a five-point lead over champions Arsenal as they strive to win the Premiership, potentially their first domestic league honour for 50 years.
