Along with Drinkwater from Leicester and Ings from Burnley http://www.football-league.co.uk/fl...-the-year-shortlist-announced_2293338_3711472 Anyone think he'll win it?
As a Leeds fan I would hope he would, if I were a neutral I would say 3rd out of the three. If we had been top of the table his efforts would stand out more, instead his efforts have gone unnoticed due to our recent form since December. On another note he is a bit too hot and cold for my liking, I am amazed he has managed so many goals already this season but he hasn't been on great form of late.
If he'd had a half decent team around him, he'd have won it by a country mile. Terrific achievement to even get on the short list
I don't think he is 3rd out of the three. I don't know enough about how Drinkwater has done this season (he didn't look too flash hot against us in both games from memory) but I really will feel disappointed for Ross if Ings wins it. He has outscored Ings (so far) and Ings has a far far better team around him. McCormack has contributed to three quarter's of our goals this season and without him and his goals we would be in last position easily and be looking at League 1. I think because the team has done so poorly it makes him stand out so much more, Ross is practically our team going forward.
Exactly why I said at the start of the season you need two strikers banging in around 20 each a season or very near to and a midfield who can contribute at least 20 goals between them, we have one out of the three ingredients hence why we are below mid table heading south when Ross doesn't score. Also worth pointing out he hasn't scored many of those goals against opposition in the top half dozen or so but I agree totally, without his goals we would be relegation fodder

... and the good news is: "Meanwhile, Capital One Supporter of the Year was 61-year-old Phil Beeton who will soon be watching his 2,000th Leeds United game."
