Who will be the most influential player this season (2011/12)?

Who do people think will be the most influential player this coming season?

 

Morgan Schneiderlin is seriosuly underrated, and I just have a hunch he's going to have a great season

 

Hmm hard one to call.. But giving the team most influence i would have to say Lallana!

 

lallana always jumps off the page, although Fonte is up there too with Rickie.

 

Morgan Schneiderlin will step it up this coming season, just feel he will have a much better season AND double his goal tally. COYR

 

Lallana definitely, but I can see Morgan begin to flourish more in the higher level. The two years at League One level were a godsend for him I think, gives him a more physical side to his game, and he's now become a player that we may not notice when he's there, but we miss badly when he's out. Hopefully he has a much higher influence going forward with Cork alongside him in midfield.

 

lallana or morgan

 

I honestly think it will be Jack Cork. I know it's a bit hasty picking the new guy, but watching him on telly and reading match reports etc he is a quality player with an infectious attitude. If he gets stuck in to the action so do his teamates. Remember when the chips were down on our relegation season from the Championship he still looked great.

 

You haven't included Morgan and you expect me to treat this poll seriously?

Morgan and Alex are the only two players we have that I believe can make it right through to playing Premier League football. Adam just might do it but it would be a gamble.

 

Lallana was so influential last season that its hard to look past him stepping up again! It was much more of a struggle to win games without him in the team which says everything you need to know.

 

I know, as soon as I posted it, I knew I should have put Spiderman in - probably instead of Barnard.

 

Will probably be Lallana but i'll be different and say Lambert. Give him the chances and he'll bury them.

Guly will be more useful than some people think this season, expect him to thrive in a league with much better technical ability.

 

Connolly will score plenty for us as long as he can stay injury free, looked like he linked up well with Holmes in Switzerland first half - could be an influential pairing perhap. Guly will make more impact this season so I voted for him.

 

Tougher league...... Harder to score, Better strikers in opposition, Tougher more skillfull and complete midfielders...... This is a tough question to answer.

Im gunna be brave and say.... if Kelvin has a great season then the points earnt from him could be huge..... so i am saying he could be the big influence :S

Of course Lallana and oxo will have a huge impact and we need rickys goals as well as a solid defence. TOUGH TOUGH question IMO

COYRs!!!!! Onwards and upwards!!!!

 

And Rickie's influence won't just be about scoring goals either. I see him becoming an attacking midfield playmaker as he gets into his 30's. Look how many assists he got last season, never mind the goals he scored.

" He wears the shirt of Matt Le Tiss..." I hear you sing.

 

I think this year it will be a cofre of very influcencial players;

Fonte, Cork, Lambert - what a strong spine for any team, with lallana, Spiderman and Chambo providing the flair to influence the results in our games.

Mouthwatering, when I look at it like that.

 

Surprised nobody has voted for Chamberlain, thought he'd be right up there. Do people think he's not going to be at the club long enough to make a big impact?

 

Depends how he takes to playing at a higher level week in week out...

 

chambo will step up, but as you said, it all depends if he stays.
if he does he definitely has potential to be our best player this year, but time will tell there.

 

I've gone for Corky, he has matured so much since he was last here and the Burnley fans reaction to him signing for us tells you how important he was to them last season.
