David Silva has been voted the Barclays Player of the Month for September.

The Spanish play-maker has made a stunning start to the new season and his efforts have been deservedoly recognised by the Premier League sponsors.

Silva's award makes it a City double after Edin Dzeko won the same accolade for August following his goal-scoring exploits in the first month of the campaign.

Silva is also up for the Club's Etihad Player of the Month award, too and capped a fine week by being named in the Spain squad to face the Czech Republic and Scotland next week.
