    POTY - Dembele
    YPOTY - Tierney

    I think Sinclair and Dembele have been excellent. Tierney is always excellent but for outstanding playing of the year it has to be Brown. Not just his transformation when we were worried he'd lost it altogether but that way he came out battling and taking over the the midfield again. We would be nowhere near unbeaten if it wasn't for his driving force through the centre of the park and setting up moves then getting the ball back straight away if we lost it. His speed and accuracy of passing has been amazing plus his willpower and fight for the ball his been immense.

    That is a great compliment though because there's loads of our players who have been excellent but I think Broony has been an exemplary Captain this season.

    You've got to remember how he was on fire, breaking the consecutive scoring record.. two or three poor games shouldn't detract from that.

    There's a genuine debate though.. as KT, Broonie, Armstrong and Dembele all contenders too.

    Went for Sinclair. It's clear when he's in the mood he's our most dangerous player for opposition, creates and scores goals and has been integral to how we've played this season.

    Really close between him, Armstrong and Dembele, who I'm shocked only has 10% of the vote so far. Brown is a massive shout as well but Sinclair for me has been exceptional this season. Had Rogic not got injured, he'd easily be in amongst that crowd as well.

    For young player, has to be KT.

    I went for Armstrong. Sinclair, Dembele and Brown all good but Considering how * he used to be Armstrong has been unbelievable.
    Rogic could have been a contender too if he didn't get injured.

    If KT doesn't win YPOTY then there's something up with the voting system, there is no contender. Been a long time since I've seen a player put everything into a game plus be excellent at the same time. He really respects the game and doesn't take anything for granted, very humble character.

    Armstrong for me as POTY, simply because he has come from absolutely nowhere to being a first pick for the team. KT for YPOTY.

    I can't believe Moussa only has 5 votes.
     
  12. Swervedancer Guest

    I think it's cause he's a fantastic player but folk are thinking more about who has the most overall impact on a game. Well at least that's why I chose Broony. I don't think anyone doubt's Moussa's ability, he's fantastic. When he came on in that St Johnstone game he did what everyone was wanting to be done, it was pure class. The Hunskelping wasn't too bad either. Plus his games in Europe especially against City was excellent. If he stays with us and takes advantage of the world class coaching and first team opportunities available he could turn out to be some player. Not the best in the team this year though. Which again, just shows how well Brendan has done with us.

    Fickleness.

    If the vote is after his red hot run of form he walks it, he'* a patch of poor form as others have but Armstrong is still flying ergo Armstrong is this particularly weeks POTY.

    For the record I think it's between; KT, Brown, Armstrong, Moussa and Sinclair. And if any of them won it wouldn't be a travesty.

    Rogic would be in there only for injury and if anyone else gets POTY moussa has to get YPOTY. A level above.

    Very difficult to choose. I'm torn between 4-5 players.

    Think I have to go for Dembele though, crazy amount of goals for such a young striker and he's done it in the big games.

    I think it depends on how you view a players contribution, Moussa has banged in the goals, Sinclair has made an immense contribution with his pace and ability, also scored some belters, Armstrong is probably the best player in the country atm, young KT has been excellent, Broony has handed his critics their * on a plate (of which i was one) :52:

    For me, Armstrong has been the most consistent player in the team since October/November.

    Dembele and Sinclair are the other two contenders but they go through dips in form.
