** Your clubs Player of the Year 2009/10 Season **

Rangers

Really hard one for me to choose as there have been a few stand outs this season. However I will list my preference in terms of the top 5 :)

1) Kenny Miller - 20 goals from a striker who tends to provide more for a main striker is a phenomenal achievement for him this season :) Not given the credit he deserves and has scored important goals and set up Boyd all season.

2) Steven Davis - The Central midfielder has played on the Right hand side all season and really has been terribly consistent and has driven us forward all year, looks to be the favourite to take both PotY honours.

3) Madjid Bougherra - The Algerian defender is both classy and exciting and his performances this season have seen some great highlights. 2 fantastic goals of note against Stuttgart and Dundee Utd are worth a look, should be off to the Premiership next season....sadly :(

4) David Weir - At 40 years old he has performed above all expectations and has been ever present in the starting line up all season. Only Davis has played more games than him :eek: Solid and reliable and deserves all the plaudits going. Has been a fantastic foil for the young Danny Wilson to learn from throughout the season. One more year?!

5) Danny Wilson - At 17 years old he made his debut and played in the Champions League for the majority of the albeit unsuccessful campaign but suitably impressed. Has handled all the big occassions this season with aplomb and is attracting interest from Liverpool, says it all to be honest. Now 18 I hope he stays for another few seasons and gets the experience and exposure required to turn him into a great player of the future :)

All in all a great season with some great performances :)
 
Robbie Keane for Celtic. 14 goals in 15 games. Shows the prob when someone who arrives half way through the season has been the best player :)
 
Arsenal

1. has to be Cesc doesn't it... He's our best player. simple.

2. Thomas Vermaelen - premier league signing of the season? ~£10 mil for a talented centre-half...compare that with the money City splashed on Lescott, Touré, and others!

=. William Gallas, clearly he never got on with Kolo Touré, but he formed a partnership right away with Vermaelen, and this season he was finally looking like the player he used to be back at Chelsea.

4. Alexandre Song - Had a great season, ever more influential in the middle of the park, he looks stronger and quicker, hopefully he's the man to anchor our midfield for a good number of years to come.
 
Newcastle United

Enrique

Possibly the best player in the Championship last season. Strong, fast, good in the tackle, and amazing link up play with Jonas when going forward. Surprised there isn't more fuss from bigger teams about him.
 
Spurs

Gareth Bale

Knew he'd get his form sooner or later. His sheer pace on the ball and consistently good deliveries have kept us looking dangerous on the wings since Lennon's injury.
When Lennon is back and in form, it should be interesting to see how we do with pace on both wings and Palacios and Modric in the centre.
 
Aah if only we (Forest) had signed Bale before everyone realised he was decent, that was never going to happen though realistically :) Am pleased he's come good for the Spuds, like them for the ex forest players they've got.

Forest's offical poty was Lee Camp our goalie, who has been fantastic all season long and by far the best and most consistant goalie in the league this season.

I'd have probably gone for our longest serving player Wes Morgan, too often last season I called him a donkey who couldn't make the step up but this season he's been a consistent rock in the heart of our defence and the forwards in the division are terrified of him! Not to mention a few goals up the other end including a 25 yarder!

Patrick kisnorbo

An absolute rock at the heart of defence, feel so sorry for him that he can't play in the world cup due to injury so close to the end of the season, wouldn't be where we are without him, closely followed by robert snodgrass, he didn't have a brilliant end to the season but the first half he was the master play maker

From games i've watched of other teams throughout the season, my player of the year from any team in the UK would have to be Gareth Bale, he's just looked top notch throughout the whole thing and ive grown a likening for tottenham lately due to there play which he's been intrumental in
 
West Brom

Graham Dorrans.

No contest, easily the best player outside the premiership. Don't be surprised to see him playing for one of the big four a few years down the line. Just gets better and better.

Honourable mention to Mulumbu.

Tough one for me, obvious choice would be Kevin Doyle, but I will go for:

Marcus Hahnemann for Wolves. Appears to have instilled some confidence in the back line, and our defence has improved greatly as a result. Helps that he is a reasonably talented goalkeeper too. We wouldn't be in the lofty (14th!) position we are in now if it weren't for him (and a few others, but I could only choose one!)

Two ex-Reading players...:)

For Reading, I would agree with the poster above that Bertrand has been superb, easily the most consistent, but he is a Chelsea player, so doesn't count in my book.

I would go for Sigurdsson. Unfortunately I suspect that he won't be with us next season.
 
Kind of worried by how many Spurs fans have named Gareth Bale as their player of the year. Yeah, he's been good, he's even had a few very good games, but let's be perfectly honest, play him at left-back and he's poor. Play him on left-wing and he's better.

Gareth Bale also only came into the team in January, late January. This was only because of an injury to Assou-Ekotto (although he was to be going to the ACN anyway), a poor player who plays ahead of Gareth Bale at left-back, which shows how poor Bale is when put there. The term 'revelation' has been used time and time again by Sky, the papers and people to describe Bale, but a revelation would be someone who comes into a struggling team and fixes them, Tottenham have actually done really well all season, long before Bale even came into the team.

How any Spurs fan can put Bale in over Dawson actually completely boggles my mind, Dawson has not just been Spurs' best player this season, but the best CB in the league and should be starting for England at the World Cup. As I said, Bale has done well, he's certainly come on leaps and bounds, but he's still not that top player, even still he is getting shown up, such as he did against Man Utd where he was completely responsible for one of the goals.

Alas, I'm doing my usual thing and talking about another team other than my own, but that just sums up the utter mediocrity of our players this season and the mundane, boring and predictable football we've played.

Our player of the year, Evra.
Our stand out player, Berbatov. For being even worse than I thought possible.
 
Ledley King.

He's only played half the season but has been awesome in each game he has played. Dawson ran him close, but as well as Dawson has done this season each time King's come into the team he's looked different class.

I wish I could buy him new knees for Christmas.
 
Nokkon, people are daft and blinded by a few performances, Bale has been poo for half the season and still only shone in specific games in the last few months.

His best games against decent clubs came against Ferreira, Sagna and Zabeleta. Ferreira is AWFUL, I could make him look bad, every left sided player has made him look bad and Bale was not involved in the game the second Ivanovic came on in the second half. Sagna, pretty much the same for him this year, did ok against Arsenals defence, well that confirms Bales in the premiership and thats about it, it didn't take a lot to trouble Arsenals defence this season, especially after Gallas and Verm were injured.

Then his latest half decent showing, his best attack came after SWP came on, couldn't be bothered to track back and Ekotto and Bale passed around an awful Zabeleta with no backup, hardly game of the season stuff.

King, Gomes, Defoe, Modric, Krancjar, Dawson have all had longer seasons with FAR more important performances and far more consistency throughout.

Bales got lucky with a few high confidence performances and he's turned that confidence into several decent performances against awful right backs, how easily Ivanovic put him in his pocket suggests to me its more about who he's played than how he's played.

I voted for Dawson but I can say as someone who saw Spurs in the flesh thirty times this season that neither Bale or Assou-Ekotto are poor left-backs. Assou-Ekotto has been very, very solid at left-back. He's only had one disastrous game all season and that was when he was switched to right-back for the Old Trafford trip.

And I disagree with your assessment about Bale at left-back. There were games this season where he dominated the entire game for left-back. His defensive game has improved considerably and he's got the stamina and pace to get up and down for 90 minutes. He wasn't getting quite the plaudits he's been receiving lately because his left-back performances weren't against the big teams and so weren't on TV.

What are you talking about? Bale has only been playing for the past few months. How could he be poo if he's on the bench?
