Foden has been great deserves the recognition but feel like the expectations for Saka must be through the rough if 25 g/an aren’t recognized. I think you have to give quite a lot of extra weight to non penalty goals to be fair. Foden's on 16 non penalty goals and 8 assists. That's a better season than Saka's 10 non penalty goals (plus six penalties) and 9 assists I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a lot of spreading the wealth this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a lot of spreading the wealth this season. Arsenal have obviously had bunch of players having a good season but I think Odegaard's the stand out candidate for player of the season amongst the Arsenal options for me. I kind of thought he hit a hot streak last year and wasn't sure he'd replicate it again but he really has. He's basically playing as a traditional 10 in the attacking third and has the attacking numbers to back it up but he's also great at pressing without the ball and when Arsenal need to progress the ball from deep he's also dropping deep and is their best progessive passer. Having said all that I'm still going for Watkins overall. 19 non penalty goals and 12 assists playing for Villa is nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexal Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Yea I hope Watkins wins too. Probably would have said Rodri was most impactful player of the season. When he’s out, City is not anywhere near the same team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvinus85 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Football script writers - time to take down Leverkusen? Nah, have Roma score an own goal caused by their really good goalkeeper then have Bayer score another in the last minute of stoppage. The plot armor must continue.

Consigliere Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 (edited) Dyche named manager of the month for April. Fair decision. Despite that hammering against Chelsea, he still picked up hugely important wins, including their first win against Liverpool at Goodison in 14 years, to secure Everton's PL status with room to spare.

Iskaral Pust Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Michael Edwards is bringing back Julian Ward as technical director at FSG/Liverpool. So it does look like the DoF group all departed in that ~12 month period because of some clash with Klopp, presumably about power/influence over transfers since Slot will be a “coach” rather than “manager”. Hopefully it’s a long term benefit to have a strong DoF structure institutionalized. It’s certainly a return to the individuals who made our most successful signings. And it perhaps explains why the Nunez signing was panned in the media recently — not that I like anyone airing their grievance through media leaks; besides, the MF signings last summer were pretty good even if the approaches for Caicedo and Lavia were botched.

Actually think that's a bridge too far for him, he's done a wonderful job, but I'd say someone like Arteta or Iraola deserves it more.
