But he's been out 11 games since then.People have very short memories, need to look back to see how good Rose was playing before he was injured, his performances were unbelievable and he was by far our best player !
It has to be Dele Alli for me.
Bear in mind he is our highest goalscorer in the league if you take away penalties. Yup, even more than Kane.
And this coming from an advanced midfield role, not as a main striker.
True, goals alone should not be the yardstick but surely, surely immense recognition is imperative if its from a midfielder.
Dele Alli for me.
A bit surprised that so many have Eriksen as POTY. Without starting a riot, I thought Eriksen was a little bit shit for the first part of this season...I cant even remember when he even scored from a free kick for us this season, if at all. He was very sloppy earlier in the season and seems to have improved gradually as the seasons gone on, rather than be consistently on form and good like Wanyama, Dele or Kane for example. Even Kane had dips in the season but he's still managed to get us goals consistently throughout the season. Up until November Eriksen had only scored 2 goals against Gilingham in the cup, and only 3 assists - 2 in the game against Stoke. He was definitely quiet in the 1st part of the season and I recall quite a few games earlier in the season where his distribution was sloppy and his determination was clearly lacking.
