middleoftheshed 388 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Nice to see Ash get some recognition. No surprise about Frank really. Deserves it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskoviolente 425 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Thought Mikel would get the Young Player Award. Love Mancienne, but he hardly played.. maybe they want to make him stay ; ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Keohane 0 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 ah man Mikel no way for young player of the year !! Mancienne till i die Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 No offence to Ash but WTF ? Credit were its due he's a cracking defender, but I wish he would stop going forward until he learns to cross a ball without it going out for a throw in on the opposite side or into the stand behind the goal. The rest I have no problem with....maybe Mikel getting YPOTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Feverr 0 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Love it, but Mikel should've been YPOTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest I have no problem with....maybe Mikel getting YPOTY. Absolutely 100% deserved. He's been different class. Yes, he puts in 1 or 2 dodgy crosses, but so do the best wingers in the world. Frank doesn't get every shot right, JT every tackle, or Petr every save. The only stupid thing was Ash not being in the top 5 for fans player of the year, and JT and Drogba were. Just shows that people vote for their favourites and not the best players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont get me wrong, I think Ash is a cracking player, but with the importance of having wing backs who bomb up and down the pitch nowadays, I feel its an area of his game which needs a serious amount of work. Thats why I leaned towards Bridge when he was here. He may not have been as good as Ash defending, but the majority of the time he would put in some fantastic crosses. Most teams defend against us so the impetus is on us to attack. When we do have to defend Ash is right up there with the best in the world. I dont want to turn this into an Ash bashing thread. I just thought I'd share my views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 No arguments with any of the awards to be honest, all fully deserved. With regards to Mikel getting young player of the year, even though he is "young" he is a fully established first team player with bundles of experience and i think the young player of the year should really go to a player comming through or one who has had an exceptional season at youth/reserve level. Mancienne breaking into the first team with half a dozen or so appearances is massive and fully deserving of young player of the year. Good to see Ash getting an award, he most certainly deserves it. Him and Frank have been top top class from day 1 this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alee. 182 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Very satisfied with the awards, Got all of them spot on imo, Ashley and Mancienne deserve them, and ofcourse, so does Frank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Glad Terry got his recognition award, although I would have thought Frank would have been presented with one as well, for surpassing 400 appearances and/or 125 goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True_Blue 469 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 All deserved but i feel Mikel should have got the young player of the year award,he was a very solid replacement for Essien. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 10,227 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Personally i also think mikel should of got young player of the year but all the other awards are well deserved, Congratulations to you all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
