Manchester City's good form in the Women's Super League continues to be recognised as three stars have been shortlisted for yet another award.

Lauren Hemp, Khadija Shaw and Chloe Kelly have all been nominated for the PFA Vertu Motors Fans' Player of the Month award for February.

City won both their league matches last month, beating Arsenal and Leicester City. Against the Foxes, Kelly and Shaw were on the scoresheet while it was Kelly and Hemp who guided City to a crucial win over Arsenal a week later.
