LUIS SUAREZ!

 

Previous winners were:

 

2005 Jamie Carragher

2006 Steven Gerrard

2007 Dirk Kuyt

2008 Javier Mascherano

2009 Xabi Alonso

2010 Javier Mascherano

2011 Steven Gerrard

2012 Luis Suarez

 

 

Our Uruguayan forward has now won it twice in a row. If he keep up his form (and stays at LFC) I am sure he will be the man to beat again next year.

 

Discussion points:

 

1. Suarez is world class. He is also an enigma and a monster. He plays with passion and ALWAYS gives 100% effort. In my opinion, he could be perhaps the greatest ever Liverpool player if we can keep him and progress as a club. The decision to sell him could be a defining moment one way or another for us, hope we don't.

 

2. Gerrard started the season badly. After 29 games, he was languishing 9th in the table but his second half of the season has been a barnstormer. I'm not sure whether he can play to his high standards for an entire season these days...perhaps a sign that he needs to be rested as part of a rotation next year.

 

3. Our "best" defender was Enrique. Him and Johnson finished higher than our centre backs, an indication that our wing back play is improving.

 

4. Our supposed best defender, Daniel Agger, finished disappointingly in 14th place but above Skrtel and Jamie. A more consistent season in terms of performance and fitness is required next year.

 

5. Pepe came back into form this season...such a shame that this year will be his last.

 

6. The January signings were very successful. Sturridge started scoring immediately and although he needs to control his selfish tendency and stupid celebrations, he will be great. Coutinho could be as influential as Suarez next season. He can thread the ball through the eye of a needle...what a fantastic player! Let's hope it wasn't a false dawn. Daniel and Phillippe finished 5th and 6th respectively from January!!!

 

7. Raheem Sterling started as a revelation but I believe he suffered a little from a "too much too soon" burn-out. We need to keep an eye on him and use him in the right way. Now the court case is not an issue, he can concentrate on learning his game.

 

8. Our Kenny signings have improved under Rodgers. Downing has been an ever-present but I feel he just cannot cut-it long term and should be sold. The best bet is Jordan Henderson. He has played well this year when he has been give game time. He will be here in years to come...a future Stevie G.

 

The summer signings will be important this year...we say this every year but more so this summer as we haven't qualified once again for the Champions' League. Our star players and players we need to attract will start having second thoughts if this continues.

 

Next year will have to be the year we get back to the big time. 4th is a must, followed by a steady progression to the title.

 

To finish, I would like to congratulate out Player of the Season...LUIS SUAREZ!

that's an incredible trophy Morse

 

well played for this, well deserved Suarez.

 

Sterling's contribution overrated, Carragher's underrated, Coutinho and Sturridge would have been Top 4 if they'd been here longer

04/05 Jamie Carragher

05/06 Steven Gerrard

06/07 Pepe Reina

07/08 Fernando Torres

08/09 Steven Gerrard

09/10 Pepe Reina

This year's vote is still to take place. Taking Man Of The Match threads it is Suarez, followed by Gerrard and then Enrique.

Well in Morse, great work.

Our "best" defender was Enrique.

Time to re-assess Kennys signings.

What is the forum Nerik?

Wonder whether they would join our multi-site monster...

[Nerik]

It is www.bootroom.org and I am one of the mods there. It is a small forum compared to one like this, but with a good nucleus of sensible posters, except for me that is. What is this mutli-site monster?

Ta mate...just registered.

I will introduce myself as the season opener approaches and we will see if there is interest.

If you could back me when I post a thread, that will help greatly.

 

Thanks again.
