# Angelo Ogbonna Nominated For November Player Of The Month

[West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2020/12/04/frederik-alves-expected-to-join-west-ham-despite-rule-changes/) defender [Angelo Ogbonna](https://readwestham.com/2020/12/02/west-ham-fans-praise-angelo-ogbonna-performance-aston-villa/) has been [nominated](https://plpotm.easports.com/) for November’s Premier League Player of the Month award.

The nomination comes after the Hammers [won all three of their games](https://www.whufc.com/fixtures/first-team/fixtures-and-results) in the month, conceding just once and recording consecutive clean sheets prior to the 2-1 triumph over Aston Villa last Monday.

Ogbonna also chipped in with a goal as the Italian popped up to [open the scoring in the embryonic minutes](https://www.whufc.com/fixtures/first-team/fixtures-and-results/season-20202021/west-ham-united-vs-aston-villa-1) of that game earlier in the week.

In fact, the 34-year-old has been in [fine form all season](https://www.sofascore.com/player/angelo-ogbonna/21164) for David Moyes’ side – [starting every match](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/angelo-ogbonna/leistungsdaten/spieler/48002) – and has an average rating of 6.89 with [SofaScore](https://www.sofascore.com/player/angelo-ogbonna/21164), peaking at [7.5 in the Villa game](https://www.sofascore.com/player/angelo-ogbonna/21164).

Should Ogbonna take the accolade via the [public vote](https://plpotm.easports.com/), he would become the second West Ham this calendar year to receive the monthly award after Michail Antonio [won it in July](https://www.premierleague.com/news/1747195#:~:text=Michail%20Antonio%20has%20been%20named,United%20in%20the%20Premier%20League.) off the back of scoring eight goals that month. He has maintained that form into the current campaign, with [three so far in 2020/21](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/west-ham-united/leistungsdaten/verein/379).

### READ WEST HAM VERDICT

It is a well-deserved nomination for Ogbonna, who has been integral to the Irons’ [early season form](https://www.premierleague.com/tables), although the [defence as a whole](https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2020/november/04-november/aaron-cresswell-im-loving-my-new-role-side) could easily have been put forward after some sterling performances to a man.

The Italy international is going from strength to strength and has become an invaluable member of the West Ham squad this season in particular.
