For skill, Chabs v Cardiff...but I genuinely think Masina’s free kick in that game changed the course of our season and was more significant.
I still can't work out how Masina's free kick went in - there was something very odd happened with the keeper, but I can't put my finger on what it was. But I'm torn between Chab's goal in that match and Sarr's second against Reading. It's a shame there's no award for Assist of the Season - or maybe it's lucky there isn't. I'd be agonising over Deeney's assist for Chab's goal against Preston and Pedro's for Gosling against Norwich...
I can't decide between Sarr's first v Reading or Masina's free kick v Cardiff because of its importance.
Their goalkeeper was anticipating Sierralta glancing a header into the corner but Sierralta missed the ball. The goalkeeper then tried to adjust and get back to where he had been before he moved but was too late.
I'll have to have another look - I thought that from the camera angle behind Masina, but I'm sure a side view showed the ball nowhere near Sierralta.
Ultimately I've gone with Pedro at Derby having watched them all another dozen times at least. Sublime finish but it was Wilmot's driving run for the assist that sealed the deal. Very fine margins with Chalobah showing off his mercurial talent vs Cardiff and Sarr's first vs Reading in hot pursuit. Usually it's relatively easy, not this time.
Yes, I agree. Of course the ones where a player throws a foot at it, and the ball goes top corner are exciting, but of those ones mostly the defending is not that great giving them time. Chalobah had no time, no space, delightful touches and finds the way through them and past the keeper. Excellent goal and definitely my favourite. Of the throwing a leg ones, I think Sarr’s second against Reading is the best. But Goal E is my shout.
Well as they said on the awards programme it was a difficult choice...... I looked at Pedros again and thought it was a good goal too
