Player of the Season

[Guernica]

Well, we're in the final furlong of the season and I thought it would be a good opportunity to share the players who have stood out (nor not!) for your side this season.

For the Imps, it's really difficult to choose as luckily we've had a cracking season.

I'd go for Jorge Grant who I don't think has put in a poor performance all season - been a real integral part of the side be it out wide in the first part of the season to defensive midfield when Bridcutt has been out or in that 'number 10' position where he pulls the strings.

Honorable mentions to Joe Walsh who has been fantastic when fit, a real rolls royce and hasn't put a foot wrong. Lewis Montsma had a storming first half of the season until Covid struck but in recent weeks has been back in the team and back to his best. A fantastic pick up who I think will improve with fans at the Bank added to the fact that this is his first season in English football. Conor McGrandles has been Mr Consistent - full of energy and quality and a great pick up from MK Dons. With most of the other central midfielders out injured he's really shouldered the burden. Brennan Johnson has been great, when at full flight opposition can't handle him - hopefully he makes the step up with Forest next season. Tom Hopper has been a real workhorse, for the majority of the season he's been our only fit striker and performs his role selflessly.

For us it’s a no brainer irrespective of performance, James Coppinger, the only problem is we weren’t there to say a goodbye

 

[Agombar stool]

Scott Twine.

 

[Luke Imp]

Agree with Guernica.

I'd probably throw Edun in there as well, no necessarily for his stand out performance but, like McGrandles, has held everything together at times this season. He's also managed to spend most of the season at LB despite being a central midfielder.

Grant or Johnson will get our award I imagine.

You could add Scully too, 17 goals in his first full season with hopefully 5 to play.

 

[GFC4EVA]

Kyle dempsey
Vadaine Oliver
Jordan graham
In that order
Special mention for stuart okeefe

 

[K-Win]

Not too many outstanding players for us this season. Craig McGillivray wins with Ronan Curtis finishing the season strongly for second.

Honeyman, for the whole season.
If it was for best player right now, probably edged by Docherty.
Also rans, Greaves, Coyle, Wilks, Elder.
Truth is though, and probably a major reason why we're champions, there genuinely isn't a weak link in the team. Some have been better than others, but there hasn't been anyone playing regularly where we've wished we had a better alternative. Highest scoring attack, lowest conceding defence, best midfield. There have been a lot of miserable seasons watching terrible City teams, this season has been a delight.

I think ours is so wide open that you could include Tom Naylor and Jack Whatmough in that discussion too. The fact that nobody stands out means that one of these players could make themselves a clear candidate if they help us beat Accrington and then be successful in the play-offs.

 

[SuffolkBlue]

Own goal. Our third top scorer I think. He’s been our only threat in the final third!

Can we have him on loan next season?
