Prem gongs for Grant and Young
-
Chelsea boss Avram Grant is the Barclays Premier League Manager of the Month for April, while Aston Villa's Ashley Young takes the player gong.
Grant steered his side back into contention for the title during an outstanding April as they collected 10 points from a possible 12.
They rounded off the month with a crucial 2-1 win over Manchester United and they now go into Sunday's final round of games this weekend level on points with their rivals.
Chelsea host Bolton while United, who have a superior goal difference, travel to Wigan.
The Blues' only slip-up in April - which could still prove costly, given the goal difference - was the concession of a late equaliser to Wigan.
It is Grant's first such award in English football.
Villa winger Young, who was recently nominated for the Professional Footballers' Association's Young Player of the Year award, has been named player of the month.
The 22-year-old scored in a 6-0 rout of Derby and added two more in a 5-1 thrashing of rivals Birmingham.
