Player of the season so far? (6 Viewers)

[SleepyGinger]

Hasn’t been a stand out and you could make a case for 6 or 7 players but think Sheaf for me.

All have had purple patches of excellence but through injury or fatigue it’s not been sustained therefore my choice would be Haji Wright. If you would have stated that would be my choice in November I wouldnt have believed it.

 

[rob9872]

Can't argue with either of those. Right now probably Sheaf edges it, but if Haji keeps scoring then I can see him by end of season taking it. A couple of months back I'd have said Milan but a bit off recently until Wolves and also consideration must be for Mr Consistency, Bidders who has to have a shout.

 

[Hiraeth]

Sheaf is the first name that comes to mind.

Think Collins, Wright, Eccles and Sakamoto haven't been too far behind him.

For me, a lot of the team are generally good on average with few consistently above the rest of them over the season so far

 

[mmttww]

Bidwell has to be up there for me.

Made a big step fwd this season.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Yasin Ayari.

 

[shmmeee]

Sheaf. We missed him so much when he was out. Eccles is in with a shout for me. Has stepped up again and again filled in all over without complaint. Still not there in terms of quality at times for me, but in terms of progression and impact he’s been huge. Latubeaudiere for impact as well, lots of minutes all over the pitch and never lets us down.

 

[skyblue_55]

Bidwell for me too .
Such a pro & he’s took a lot of messing about in his stride , but you know what your getting with him .
What a massive TEAM change around though , when so many names could be associated with this ?

 

[Sick Boy]

Sheaf.

 

[WestEndAgro]

Eccles

 

[play_in_skyblue_stripes]

Sakamoto

 

[Kilclines curly mullet]

Bidwell

The answers in this thread are a sign of our real progression this season. Last season we had a choice of two. This season there are players all over the pitch who have been outstanding or have improved beyond measure.

It's nice not to have to rely on one or two individuals.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Sheaf for me. His absence really demonstrated this. Stepped up massively in his game and his leadership capabilities.

Indeed and to think that a poster laughed when I said he’d be worth over £10m at some point in the future.

Sheafo's mine called it long ago, welcome to the party the rest of you.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Sheaf
Sakamoto
Collins
Bidell
Wright

one of these

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Team for me , one is no good without the other !

 

[Chris1987]

The improvement in a good number of players over the season has been marked which can only be down to MR & Viveash. More importantly we now look like a proper team.
My list of candidates
Sheaf
Wright
Sakamoto
Bidwell

Sheaf edges it currently as he has played well all season. Bidwell was instrumental in the turnaround of fortunes and is greatly missed when he's not playing. This group will only get better.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Hail to the Sheaf

 

[Sick Boy]

Sheafo's mine called it long ago, welcome to the party the rest of you.

I’ve been a big fan of his since his first season and even touted him as a long-term future captain.

 

[covcity4life]

Sheaf, Thomas or wright

Honourable mention to lati for being solid in every position he plays. Really happy with that signing.

 

[clint van damme]

Wright for me, took his time getting going, but to come into a new league, get the numbers he's got and score that winner at Wolves I'd give it to him.
Sheaf and Saka would be up there but for injuries.

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Eccles for his consistency and contribution over the season as a whole, followed by Sheaf and then Wright.

Sakamoto was outstanding over a period but this was not long enough to count as player of the season.

 

[skybluelee]

Sheaf. Honourable mentions to Thomas, Bidwell, Eccles

 

[Saddlebrains]

The good thing is I don't think there's a massive stand out this year which says a lot about the team

Of course for impressive single performances you've got Sheaf, Sakamoto, Wright, Bidwell, but then you have just behind that for keeping a high standard over a prolonged period of time, Eccles, Thomas and Kitching, i really find it hard to pick this year

But gun to head, Sheaf because i love him and genuinely think hes the best 6 in this league

For Wright to have made you go from starting to hate him to putting him in contender for player of the season is some improvement!

 

[fatso]

Sheaf, just ahead of Sakamoto.

 

[skybluecam]

Fabio Tavares

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Sheaf up until now.

....and Simms will carry us home from here on in.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Got to be one of
Sheaf
Sakamoto
Bidwell
But my pick is Bidwell, so professional and his delivery has stepped up a notch, the way he had to bide his time and just slotted straight in says a lot about his attitude and character so has to be him

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

1) Sheaf
2) Kitching
3) Bidwell

but there’s nowt in it really

 

[Martin180]

Eccles was our best player early season but since our upturn in form you can name so many . Sheaf , Bidwell , MvE , Kitching , Wright , Simms ......

 

[steve cooper]

By the end of the season Simms might be in with a shout
