    For me it is Ritchie.
    The bloke has been the most consistent this season and grafts his arse off, even when things are going against him and the team.
    He scores goals, creates and has a real bond with the fans too. He also doesn't hide and comes out and says when he does through short spells of poor form as he clearly sets high standards for himself.
    He could have walked into many PL teams but he chose us over them (particularly West Ham).

    He really is magic.

    Nothing but respect for your Ritchie man-love, top fella and proud he's in Black & White. But....

    Mine's a more quirky crush; Jonjo. Enormous talent, almost unique, very capable player and has so much potential it's scary. Has carried the team as well at times - not as much as Ritchie, granted. Also had such a memorable debut - that ball for Janmaat is one of the finest passes I've ever seen (alongside Ritchie-Atsu).

    I also love Gru from Despicable Me.

    Jonjo also seems to have calmed his temper as the season as progressed. #rafaeffect

    Sammy. Very underrated, but a natural talent waiting to be let loose.

    The fact that he has been happy to sit back and give others the chance for a run-out in the Championship just shows what a true pro and team player he is.

    Next season he will step up and unleash his talent, dazzling the Premier League beyond belief.

    The Ameobi legacy will live on.

    Yours truly, Sammyameobi Wan

    To still be rocking it at 53yr old is impressive. There is hope for us all.

    Is that physical or mental age?

    I have it on good authority from my wife that I haven't even reached my teens...mentally.

    You shouldn't be trying to reach for teens at your age.

    Players come and go, but none have made their mark quite like the Ameobi's.
    Of Gods and Men....
    I only hope that I haven't gone the way of Fredor by the time the Son of Shola is proudly wearing the coveted No.9 Shirt.

    Aside from the obvious, probably Dwight Gale.

    Ritchie definitely. I saw a lot of him at Bournemouth where he did well but I think he seems more revved up to play for us. Having fighters like that in the team is worth so much as is infectious
