I'll go first...

Player of the year: There’s no obvious standout here. I’m a Buendia fan, but even I have to admit he got off to a slow start, and I don’t think he even started half the games. Martinez was the most consistent but not quite as brilliant as last year. Coutinho is the most talented but wasn’t here half the season. I’ll go with Cash. He contributed in both attack and defense and played the most minutes.

Young player of the year: JJ. Easy choice.

Most improved player: Close call between Cash and JJ. I’ll give it to Cash because with JJ, you expect young players to improve.

Most regressed player: Lots of players didn’t play as well this year: Konsa, Mings, McGinn, Watkins, maybe even Martinez. But Targett regressed the most, without question. He’s gone for a reason.

Best new signing: I like most of our signings. I’ll go with Coutinho, not just because of the player, but because it was a big statement of intent.

Worst new signing: Tuanzebe. Without him, Deano probably wouldn’t have played 5-3-2 and might still be here. Even if you don’t like our other signings, this is the only one that was an unquestionable disaster. He’s gone for a reason.

Most underused player: It’s tempting to say Sanson given how little he played, but I’ll say Ings. He had the most goal contributions per 90 minutes on the team but often sat on the bench in favor of Watkins, who didn’t have a particularly good year.

Better manager (Deano or SG): SG, not because the results were significantly better, but because I see a vision for the future.

Best victory: Manchester United 1-0. Sure, they weren’t very good this year, but they’re the only top 8 team we beat, and given our historical record at Old Trafford, it was extra-enjoyable. Close runner up: Southampton 4-0, because of the quality of the goals.

Worst loss: Tempted to say City 3-2 because it was so recent and so heartbreaking, but surrendering a 2-0 lead to Wolves late was against a lesser team and was in a sort-of-derby, making it extra miserable.

Goal of the year: So many good ones this year. McGinn against Watford? Ings bicycle kick against Newcastle? Bailey against Everton? Chambers against Leeds? Because the pass that set it up was so great, I’ll go with Chambers to Coutinho to Dougie vs. Southhampton.

Player of the year - Ramsey & Cash (too close to call for me)

Young player of the year - Ramsey

Most improved player - Ramsey

Most regressed player - Watkins (Konsa a close second).

Best new signing (summer or winter window, loans count) - Coutinho

Worst new signing - Ings (ironically i really like Ings, and think he is a really good player, but for the price and wages, i just dont think he was what we needed at all)   

(the only reason i didnt pick Tuanzebe, is that it was a loan, so didnt impact us long term as a poor signing where we carried the can for wages and a 5 year contract, for a really not very good player, he was who i put down first off as the worst signing, but i chose Ings due to the money involved compared to what we probably needed)

 

Most underused player - Sanson

Better manager (Deano or SG) - SG (this season)

Best victory - 1-0 at Old Trafford.

Worst loss - Watford doing the double over us (both of em), honourable mention to the 3-2 Wolves, and 3-2 Man City capitulations.

Goal of the year - Ramsey's run and goal versus Norwich.

Player of the year - ramsey

Young player of the year - how young do you go? Ramsey, or timbo for breaking through, KKH for 2 good loans 

Most improved player - Ramsey, progressing very nicely 

Most regressed player - Watkins 

Best new signing (summer or winter window, loans count) - Digne but coutinho and Buendia both great signings too

Worst new signing - Bailey but I believe he'll have a good year next year 

Most underused player - Buendia, he's a great player that we have to find a starting role for every week

Better manager (Deano or SG) - deano!! 

Best victory - utd

Worst loss - wolves, derailed our season 

Goal of the year - ings bicycle kick

Player of the year - really tough to picky anyone, an incredibly disappointing, inconsistent season, if I hadn’t to choose, probably cash.

Young player of the year - only one option here really, Ramsey, he still has a lot of work to do.

Most improved player - Ramsey 

Most regressed player - where do I start, Konsa->Watkins->Martinez

Best new signing (summer or winter window, loans count) Coutinho, finally a player with composure

Worst new signing - Bailey

Most underused player - Buendia 

Better manager (Deano or SG) -SG, we are playing better football, astute signings, however defence is a mess, hopefully a pre season will fix those problems.  I can’t help but feel the 100 mil was wasted by DS.

Best victory - win against Man U

Worst loss - can’t choose, both Watford games, not capitulations against wolves and city

Goal of the year - Ings bicycle kick

 

hopefully next season, we are more composed and competitive, I’d like to see a replacement for Ming’s.  I really just can’t pick a captain in this team though.

I'm amazed people are forgetting about Coutinho's goal vs City. It's an outstanding piece of skill nobody in our squad (bar maybe Bert) could pull off

Yeah but a bicycle kick is a bicycle kick!
