    Best Player: Riyad Mahrez

    Signing of the Season: N'Golo Kanté

    Biggest Flop: Seydou Doumbia (where the fúck is he?) or Mourinho at Chelsea

    Best Goal: Dele Alli at Crystal Palace

    Best Game: Man City 1-3 Leicester City. Man City played off the park, and many believed Leicester could win it after this

    Underrated Player of the Season: Moussa Dembélé. Kane, Alli, Eriksen, Alderweireld and even Dier ger plaudits. He doesn't get half the credit he deserves. Utterly makes Spurs tick.

    Player to watch out for next season: Danny Ings. I think he's the archetypal Klopp player and will thrive.

    Pick your own and add some if you like...

    Best Player: N'Golo Kante

    Signing of the Season: N'Golo Kante

    Biggest Flop: Florian Thauvin has to be the answer. Reported fee of £12m-£15m, 12 Premier League appearances with 0 goals and 0 assists, and shipped out on loan in January.

    Best Goal: Matt Ritchie v Sunderland

    Best Game: Norwich 4-5 Liverpool

    Underrated Player of the Season: Jan Kirchhoff. A fee of just £750,000 means he would be my signing of the season if he had been been around for longer than just January. He had a very tough debut at Spurs but has been immense ever since then. He leads a large number of key statistical categories for his position since February and trails only Kante in others. A really superb player who was the key reason to Sunderland's revival.

    Player to watch out for next season: I feel Duncan Watmore could take another step up after a promising first season of senior action.

    Underrated Player of the Season: Defoe kept Sunderland up with his goals.

    Best Player: Kante.

    Signing of the Season: Kanté.

    Biggest Flop: Hazard.

    Best Goal: Matt Ritchie v Sunderland

    Best Game: Bournemouth 3 Everton 3 for the last few minutes, Norwich 4 Liverpool 5.........................yeah, I love goals!!

    Underrated Player of the Season: between Defoe and Chris Smalling

    Player to watch out for next season: de Bruyne is obvious but he could be the difference between winning/losing the title . One a little off the radar: Tim Fosuh Menshe (united)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Best Player: N Kante for his sheer workrate, the rock around which Leicester was built.

    Signing of the Season: Jermain Defoe - he kept Sunderland up.

    Biggest Flop (Summer) Raheem Sterling - not a cheap shot. He cost a record British player amount and regressed as the season progressed.

    Biggest Flop (January) : El-Hadji Baye Oumar Niasse, who? 18m euro for 149 minutes of football at Everton.

    Best Goal: Vardy against Liverpool :mad:

    Best Game: Norwich 4 - 5 Liverpool - perfect Premier League advert at both ends :)

    Underrated Player of the Season: er James Milner - no really. A freebie who looked like sinking under Rodgers but who has really taken to Kloppball, 11 PL assists, vital EL moments and goals. Just keep him off the corners.

    Player to watch out for next season: Iheanacho at Man City

    Biggest Flop: Mourinho

    Best Goal: Alli at Palace

    Best Game: Norwich 4 - 5 Liverpool

    Underrated Player of the Season: Defoe his goals kept Sunderland up.

    Player to watch out for next season: Sterling


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,219 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Best Player: Riyad Mahrez / Vardy has to be close second.

    Signing of the Season: Kanté

    Biggest Flop: Depay

    Best Goal: Vardy vs liverpool

    Best Game: Man City Vs Leicester - a turning point and a moment in time that screamed 'believe'... the rest is history.. cracking game too

    Underrated Player of the Season: Wes Morgan

    Player to watch out for next season: De Bruyne - have a feeling he may set the league alight next year and this was only a taster.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Best Player: Riyad Mahrez

    Signing of the Season: N'Golo Kanté

    Biggest Flop: Christian Benteke

    Best Goal: Vardy vs Liverpool. As much as I dislike Vardy, who doesn't love a looping, lobbing volley.

    Best Game: Manchester United 3 - 2 Arsenal. Obviously biased, but its a game that I felt in my viewing was the best. Arsenal very much came expecting to trounce an inexperienced and injury ridden United side. Rashford was kept after a good showing in Europe, and scored twice. While United hung on towards the end, it very much put dead in its tracks Arsenals title bid and put the front all of Wengers nonsense and issues.

    Underrated Player of the Season: Mezut Ozil. An incredible player that I was disgusted went to Madrid when there was reports he could sign for United. Criminally marginalised in the English press as "lazy" and other at one point "knicking a living". He is easily the best player Arsenal have, and if they can't meet his expectations surely they will lose him shortly. It's also ridiculous that Ozil and his stats and ability needs to be highlighted, and is constantly disregarded by the English press and large quarters of fans.

    Player to watch out for next season: Memphis Depay. Fully believe in his ability, and will be hoping he can start his trajectory upward. Somewhat of a laughing stock which hopefully he uses as fuel


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,427 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    Best Player: Jamie Vardy - won so many points early on with his scoring streak that broke the record

    Signing of the Season: Toby Alderweireld - unbelievable value for money

    Biggest Flop: Raheem Sterling. Honourable mentions for Memphis and Bogdan

    Best Goal: Cuco Martina v Arsenal. Freaking ridiculous that nobody else is voting for this - watch it again in slow mo from behind

    Best Game: Norwich 4-5 Liverpool, only bettered by the Dortmund game but we seem to be going for EPL games so has to be the 9-goaler

    Underrated Player of the Season: Jack Butland. Stoke collapsed when he got injured.

    Player to watch out for next season: Andre Gray

    Best Player: Riyad Mahrez- a more likeable but equally effective version of Hazard.

    Signing of the Season: N'Golo Kante. A triumph to analytics.

    Biggest Flop: Raheem Sterling. Very few games (if any) where you were left going "wow". Ihaenacho scored more in the league in far less game time. Has all the hallmarks of Springfield investing in the monorail.

    Best Goal: Cuco Martina v Arsenal. Second the earlier suggestion. A technically outstanding strike.

    Best Game: In terms of how both teams fared after the result, Arsenal 2-1 Leicester. The Foxes embarked on a charge Arsenal could only dream of.

    Underrated Player of the Season: Chiekhou Kouyate. Less spectacular than Kante, but top bracket in terms of midfield enforcers.

    Player to watch out for next season: Luke Shaw. How things changed when he broke his leg in October.

    Best Manager - Pardew. Had survival sown up by Christmas, leaving a limited squad free to concentrate on the Cup.

    Best Player: Riyad Mahrez

    Signing of the Season: N'Golo Kante

    Biggest Flop: Christian Benteke, Memphis Depay or Morgan Schneiderlin, can't decide among those three but they are three of the higher priced flops imo of those that moved clubs.
    Of those that were at the same club, Nemanja Matic was very disappointing for Chelsea.

    Best Goal: Eden Hazard against Liverpool just a week or so ago. I just love those type of goals.

    Best Game: Gotta be Norwich 4-5 Liverpool

    Underrated Player of the Season: Mark Noble never gets enough credit for the work he does for West Ham.

    Player to watch out for next season: Iheanacho is going to something else I think. Very special player and he seems to have a great attitude.

    ...........

    Signing of the Season: Jermain Defoe - he kept Sunderland up............

    Indeed, for little £££s too, fantastic signing for them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,690 ✭✭✭✭Skylinehead
