    Good to see a young player in Maddison win our young player award as oppose to the PFA one with 24 and a half year old Sterling!
    Fuchs goal was great, probably wouldn’t have been my choice due to the importance of the game and the opposition but maybe that’s unfair of me. Ricardo deserves all his

    Thanks for the results. I voted for Fuchs goal and believe it would win any goal of the season award it was that good, amazing technique. Agree entirely with Pereira winning player of the year, a fabulous signing.

    And to think Pereira looked so poor in his first couple of months!

    Huh? I thought hes been very good going forward all season, though i would agree that he was a bit of a defensive liability early on.

    I reckon that’s what he means. From day one he was contributing going forwards with assists but flakey at the other end. I think it was Liverpool at home where he just fell over as Mane ran past him. He seems to have settled into a fantastic all rounder now though

    Yeah as an actual right back he looked awful at first! Now he’s an absolute rock on top of being one of our best attacking threats!

    He didnt look like a £25M right back at all. Once Amartey got injured, Ricardo knew he wouldnt get rotated as much from being a winger to a right back and he really settled in to the role

    I think only Alexander-Arnold has more assists then him from right back this season
