Ha'way the Lads
Player of the season
For
me it's not much of a debate. Stephane Sessegnon has to be the winner. He's
obviously our offensive catalyst, and as his game goes so does our offensive
production it seems. He hasn't always been consistent this year, but he has had
some magical moments and keeping him around is essential for us to continue to
move up the table next season.
Young player of the season
This
is a tough call for me. There are two main options. It's either James McClean
or Jack Colback. Both have been fantastic, but for me, it has to be Colback.
His consistency in the middle of the pitch has been outstanding, and he's even
filled in as an emergency left back. O'Neill seems to rate him and it's likely
you'll see young Colback in the middle of the pitch for some time to come.
Best signing of last summer
This
again is a two horse race for me. Is it John O'Shea or Seb Larsson? Both have
been vital to our success this year, but the edge for me goes to O'Shea. Maybe
it's because as a player i'm more defensive minded, or because Seb seemed to
slip in form late in the season, but O'Shea has been such an important player
when he's been fit enough to play. JOS's ability to play fullback or center
half also gives him an edge. His versatility and consistency make him my top
signing of last summer.
Most disappointing signing of last summer
I'm
tempted to say Connor Wickham here. The young lad certainly hasn't produced
much, but he also hasn't played much either. He was bought with an eye on his
future so I'll give him a pass. I'm going to go with Craig Gardner. This isn't
to say that I don't think Gardner was good at times, or that he may not end up
being a solid player for us, but he cost us more money than any other signings
besides Wickham and he didn't settle in and produce like I hoped he would.
Goal of the season
There
are many to choose from. Frazier Campbell's volley against Norwich was superb,
but I'm going to go with Sessegnon's goal against Swansea. He had the tightest
of window's to get the ball in and it was at such a narrow angle. He really is
a magician with the ball sometimes.
Game of the season
It's
a tossup between Arsenal in the cup or Man City at home. A case can be made for
both games so i'll pick one out of the hat and I came up with…….…Arsenal at
home. I did love that match. We played them right out of it and although they
had the possession we always looked like we were going to win. Too bad we
rolled over against Everton, ugh.
Who should we sign?
My
votes are for Fletcher, Moses, Hoilett (i'm dreaming here), Ryan Bertrand.
Who might surprisingly be on the way out?
I
think Craig Gardner or David Meyler may end up being sold this summer. I'd love
to see both stay, but Gardner still doesn't seem settled and I'm not sure
O'Neill rates Meyler. Will be interesting to see what happens.
Way too early predicted
finish for next season
I'll say we are on
our way up, but not quite there. 9th place.
