Mark Travers, Leif Davis, Emiliano Marcondes and Jack Stacey are up for the accolade after their performances over the last five weeks. 

The Cherries have won two and lost two of their four games in January and go into February sat third in the Sky Bet Championship table. 

Travers played all league fixtures over the last month, keeping a clean sheet against Barnsley last weekend and consequently picking up the club's Man of the Match award. 

His seven saves kept the hosts out at Oakwell and helped the Cherries to a crucial three points in South Yorkshire. 

As for Davis, he also has three appearances in January and slotted in nicely at left-back, after Jordan Zemura was involved with Zimbabwe in the Africa Cup of Nations. 

His standout appearance came against Yeovil Town in the FA Cup, a 3-1 win for the Cherries, and he was subsequently voted Man of the Match by supporters for his efforts. 

Marcondes is also nominated after four goals in three games, scoring a hat-trick in the FA Cup at Huish Park, as well as the side's first goal at Kenilworth Road a week later. 

His treble against Yeovil Town was the first in his career.  

Finally, Stacey makes up the list of nominees and also has three appearances this month. 

The right-back bagged a superb assist against former club, Luton Town, dribbling past three men to set up Marcondes. Two weeks later and he was pivotal to the winning goal at Barnsley, his ball forward taking the 'keeper off his line as Philip Billing took advantage from Dominic Solanke's cross.
