Slightly to my surprise nobody has asked for a poll yet. But you are getting one anyway. Only 15 options allowed by the site (I have a feeling I have missed someone important) poll closes in 5 days. THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT DELAY AFTER THIS POST APPEARS BEFORE THE POLL ARRIVES. I don't know why. As I haven't seen them live and only fleetingly on telly, I won't be voting.
Barton. From zero to hero. Even acted with decorum after Coke bottle. Mid field engine and play maker. Never give up attitude that he is instilling in whole team. On course for player of season. After 2 years ago- incredible!
Simpson for me, has quietly gone about his business all season and is fast becoming our best full back since the days of Bardsley and Wilson...
I wouldn't want to influence anybody's vote but can I just remind people voting for Barton that we played 3 games in October and that he was suspended for the game at Wigan ie. he missed one third of the games played in October. The vote doesn't include yesterday's game where I thought he was superb.
BAE. Even though I don't have a proper foundation to vote. But reading match reports and snippets + brief highlights he gets my vote.
