    For me Sinclair has been amazing. He has taken us to a new level. Best player in the league.

    Really tough choice this year.

    There is a reasonable argument for about 6 players at least.

    Sinclair, Dembele, Brown, Armstrong, KT, Rogic(up until his injury), Forrest, Roberts all have performed really well most of the season.

    I would probably go Dembele, his CL exploits just shade it for me.

    I voted Sinclair but I think I'd change it to Broony on reflection. Played the most out of anyone this season, superbly.

    Scored the goal that got us into the CL as well.

    Has too be Sinclair but it's the toughest it's been in years any of Broony. Armstrong, Moussa or Scott could win and no1 would argue

    Brown has had a very good season but I think the other 3 you mentioned are well ahead of him in terms of deserving it.

    Almost cost us as well :fear:

    That hattrick, fresh in the mind probably sways a lot of votes his way....and seriously he's been on another level, despite a recent dip of a month or so in my opinion. Him mainly has changed the way we play and given us such a different threat that terrifies defences..

    I still find it hard to pick though. Broony has been sensational and still maybe my pip. That pass completion and showing in the Champions league was out of this world.... Especially after the amount of *'s claimed he was finished. Been off of late but shouldn't be ignored because he's overdoing it..

    Dembele. What can you say about this guy? Grown from strength to strength and scores all goals, both feet, strength, in the air and that lone striker we've been crying out for as a release in Europe. Continually improving in all aspects of his game..

    Rogic. If he hadn't got injured, or fouled, then maybe this guy would be front-running. Was starting to last 90 comfortably and boss game's, whoever he was up against. A fabulous player..

    KT. A consistent, class player with the best delivery in Scotland. Arguably for his age and stats, he must be high up in Europe in general. Played through injuries and shoulder and back stronger, quicker and better than ever..

    Armstrong. I've never seen a turnaround like it following Celtic. This wasn't just a month in turnaround. This was a year down the line and almost unanimously hounded out...but then Brendan came in and this guy has been sensational. Pace, drive, dig, energy, cleverness, passing, goals, set piece's. He's the complete midfielder now and is still improving..

    Forrest. Injury free and managed and another who was leaving and no one batting an eyelid. Been braver, defensively sound and excellent in the system. Contributed to almost 20 goals is it? And taking on his man more than ever. Not quite poty but deserves a shout..

    Hard choice might be easier doing a poty for each part if the team

    I think Sinclair edges it. He's been outstanding all season.

    Just goes to show how strong we are when so many players are genuine contenders for POTY.

    We had a similar thread last week and Armstrong was getting a lot of votes, now Sinclair has scored a hat-trick and he's back out in front.

    These things are basically decided by whoever is in the best form at the time.

    Sinclair and it's not even close any more. Only Brown was close to him earlier in the season but Sinclair has been on a different level for us.

    Chose Sinclair but any one of Sinclair, Dembele or Brown really.

    You can guarantee if this Poll was a fortnight ago Sinclair wouldn't be winning it. The general consensus on here before his hat trick was he was burnt out...

    That's nonsense. You forgetting Armstrong away to BMG? From October on he has been consistently outstanding

    Can't remember the last time we've had so many outstanding candidates for POTY and for that reason I think the choice is really difficult, probably the most difficult I can remember.

    If I had to narrow it down, it would be between Sinclair and Dembele, though guys like Armstrong, Rogic, Brown, Tierney, Forrest, Gordon can make strong claims too.

    I think I'll go for Dembele for both POTY and YPOTY. Will add more to his value if he's the winner :84:

    Changed my vote from Brown to Armstrong.I think Armstrong has been that bit more consistent than Sinclair throughout the season.Dembele,Tierney,Rogic and Gordon all in contention too.

    Not nonsense at all, he had a few good performances before, like when he came on against Sevco in the 5-1 game and completely changed it but he nailed down his place around December and didn't look back.
