Glad to see Dack in there again and pleased he's re-found his form since the move. Now hurry up and sell him for millions please.

Two from the team in first.
Three from the team in second.
Four from the team in third.
One from fifth and one from ninth.
One from 19th.

Can I just guess who you support for a second

Only reason Raya has made it in is because loan players are ineligible. Both Walton and Henderson have been by far and away the best two keepers in the league. Other than that the list is pretty accurate to be honest. Although I do think Mulgrew is overrated, if he didn’t take all free kicks and pens then he would be nowhere near the list. Stick another Shrewsbury defender in there instead.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Where are all our players?

Oh yeah they're fucking shit, never mind.

 

[Bottega Don]

Team looks pretty much right. Only change I would make is put Marcus Maddison in there, ahead of either Carey or Powell.

Indeed.

Which award includes loanees then because Ripley was in TOTS last year?

I think a biased mention for Matt Clarke is in order.. he's been head and shoulders above the rest of our team this year.

So have Wigan and Blackburn

That’s reminded me of another keeper better than Raya. Luke McGee.

 

[nelsonpfc]

Proper bias, but Matt Clarke is heads and shoulders above any other centre back this season, rarely looks like he's broken a sweat especially considering the amount of defending he's had to do due to our very inexperienced midfield we've had to play due to injuries

That’s reminded me of another keeper better than Raya. Luke McGee.

To be fair McGee has had a fairly average this season even though I adnit I was expecting big things for him. His commanding of his area has been pretty poor and he's been out of form since the turn of the year, so muc so Jackett got in Stephen Henderson from Notts Forest and stuck him straight in. Fortunately for McGee Hendersons thigh popped in his first game. McGee has come back and produced a few saves, but nowhere near the best, just for consistancy I suppose.

Matt Clarke is heads and shoulders above any other centre back this season,

love it

Wondered when someone would post something like this.

Bollocks, I've started *that* chat.

 

[Roverthehill]

Goalkeeper
David Raya - Blackburn Rovers

If Raya has been the best keeper this season, then the rest of the league are dogshite!

It's worrying how the likes of Burn and Byrne have made the League One team of the year, a season after embarrassing themselves in the league above.

Don’t know where you’ve got that from. Dan Burn was our player of the year by a mile and despite going down our defence was around the top half for goals conceded, we just couldn’t score. Byrne hardly ever played and was sent on loan in January by the clueless Yootha Joyce. I remember him starting when we won at Huddersfield. He proved how good he was at Swindon and Cook has brought it out of him playing him as an attacking full back.

Byrne was excellent for us last year too, playing mostly on the wing.

I was hoping Wigan would stay up and that we may have been able to sign him permanently.

Burn has always looked awful whenever i've seen him play but will take your word for it.

Byrne is good at this level but Championship looks a step too far for him, he's one that will need upgrading i think. Wolves binned him off pretty quickly and that's when they were pretty crap.

Have to say, i've never heard of this Blackburn keeper.

 

[roversfan2001]

Raya's only in it because the loanees are ineligible; his reflexes are second to none but his kicking lets him down.
