Aaron Collins (MK Dons) - striker

October was a dream month for Collins, whose eight goals and two assists in six games showed him at his elegant best, oozing control, intelligence and cool finishing as he glided into dangerous positions and picked apart League One defences.

Jon McCracken (Bradford City) – goalkeeper

McCracken kept four successive clean sheets in his five October games.

He is able to switch on his concentration when Bradford’s tight defence is breached and came up with vital saves, including a series of fine reaction stops at Burton.

Derensili Sanches Fernandes (Huddersfield Town) – attacking midfielder

The Dutchman either scored or assisted in each of Huddersfield’s six games, finishing with five goals and two assists.

Strong at holding off defenders, he has silky control, easy movement on the ball and the vision to pick out teammates.

Kyle Wootton (Stockport County) - striker

Wootton’s knack for being in the right place, allied to his coolness in the moment, saw him score four goals, all of which came in Stockport victories and underlined his importance as his team moved into the automatic promotion places.
