Alli also inspired Tottenham’s fight-back from a two goal deficit at Manchester City later in January, scoring just four minutes after Kevin De Bruyne as Spurs scrabbled to claim a point that had looked beyond them.

Arsenal star Sanchez has also been weighing in with crucial goals this month, finding the net to inspire a revival from three goals down at Bournemouth and scoring an impudent ‘Panenka’ penalty in the 98th minute to secure a 2-1 win for the ten men Gunners against Burnley.

Swansea midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson and Everton full-back Seamus Coleman round out the nominees.
