Arsene Wenger and Aaron Ramsey have won the Barclays Premier League manager and player of the month awards for September in recognition of Arsenal's flying start to the season.
The table-topping Gunners - who many tipped to miss out on the top four before the season started - won all four League games in September, beating north London rivals Tottenham as well as Sunderland, Stoke and Swansea.
Wales midfielder Ramsey scored four League goals in the month, two coming at Sunderland, one at home to Stoke and one away at Swansea. It represents quite a turnaround for the 22-year-old, who had only scored three goals in the last two top flight campaigns combined.
Ramsey told of his delight at winning the award, tweeting: 'Very happy to be named @premierleague Player of the Month for September. Hoping for an even better October!'
Wenger - currently the longest-serving manager in England - has now won 13 top flight manager of the month awards since his arrival at Arsenal in October 1996.
Arsenal head into the international break top of the league with 16 points from seven games following Sunday's 1-1 draw at West Brom.
