But he’s a bluehammer with a soft spot for City.
He’s a spiteful **** who gets away with murder on here because of some perceived soft spot for West Ham we’re all meant to have.
Personally can’t stand them and have never met a decent hammer in my life.

It’s amazing how perception becomes fact on some of these threads when bias is trying to be demonstrated. As many have already stated, The Media do not vote for POTY, it is voted for by the players. Giggs won it once, in 2008/09 and played 47 games that season. The Football writers award has never been won by Giggs and the last rag to win it was Rooney in 10/11.
Whilst the manager of the year award is seems of an anomaly with city and PL wins, the Manager of the year award is voted for by the LMA and is voted by all 92 managers and is often won by a manager of a team that didn’t win the PL. Ferguson only won it 4 times. Wenger won it twice, the same as Steve Coppell and David Moyes. It has also been won by Dave Bassett, Roy Hodgson, Alan Curbishley, Dave Jones, Danny Wilson, George Burley and Eddie Howe. So not many PL winners in that lot.
The only questionable one would be the annual divisional manager of the year awards which are voted for by a ‘panel’, as that is the one where you usually win it if you’ve won the title. Only 3 times that hasn’t happened was once with Ferguson and the 2 City wins.

Very disappointing that you can’t make a D-Nile joke about an Egyptian any more!!

As for POTY, if Salah wins it, good luck to him. Whilst I’d give it to KDB I would say that if he’d been out injured for 6 months I think we’d still be winning the PL. If Salah had been out they’d not be in the top 4.

Shouldn't really be a discussion..... as Silva is far better than both of them.... comfortably ;)

I agree Salah should win it, but I don’t anyone is in denial by claiming KDB should win it. After all, he has got the most assists and created the most chances in the league. It’s not just that, some of his passes this season have been a joy to watch.
