24 i believe. its too old for 'young player of the year' IMO. should be 21/22. This would then put further emphasis on actual 'youth' and would give real young player, like 18/19 year olds more attention
Yes; all you say there is true. But RVP has more or less single-handedly carried an average Arsenal side for most of this season (and certainly since Wilshere got injured). I don't think we can say the same for Kun.mansour's tow ropes said:is van persie that far ahead of the rest of the pack? really?
34 goals in all competitions, but this is a barclay award for the premier league; how many PL goals has he got? and how many are from the penalty spot?
aguero is on 28 goals in all competitions.
so 34 v 28 is close, considering RVP has more pens and this is aguero's first season in england.
just saying

I don't particularly want him to win it, as i don't think he's a likeable individual. Plus I would have loved to see Merlin win it, but he had (by his high standards earlier in the season) an average/poor winter.salfordblues said:jimharri said:Yes; all you say there is true.

Agreed. There's not been a better individual overall performance than that of Van Persie this season.
mansour's tow ropes said:When are the nominees out?
We must have a few in their
silva (despite a dip in form he will still be nominated)
Kompany
Lescott possibly
Aguero
Hart
Young player of the year:
Aguero should win it. End of. 21 league goals in opening 34 games in england. a few assists and very few bookings. Crazy to think that hes young enough to be involved in the young player award.
Richards (hes 23 isnt he?)
Balotelli would if he hadnt got 2 reds and kicked Scotty P in the boat race.
Harts too old isnt he?
In reality, we will probably only have 1 or 2 nominated, and neither will win it. Im tipping scholes for a nomination, but RVP will win it.
However, aguero HAS to win the young player. But phil jones will probably win it.
