Player of the season.
He was my MOTM right after Lucas.
Just look at the 5 minutes of the injury time. Our CBs were broken, Jan and Toby were so exhausted they could hardly run back in time when Ajax were still trying to score. In came Sissoko.
He's just like Thor, unbelievable strength and stamina even at this late into the match. He was trying so hard breaking down attacks after attacks in the middle for so long until he was called into duty for RB when Tripps went off. Yet he appeared at left side of the defence covering for Davies and Jan who had left a hole during the injury time when Ajax countered.
Then, nearer to the 5th minute of injury time, Son made a backpass to him. Without checking, he swept the ball up to Llorente who brought it down well enough for Dele to make a sumptuous pass to Lucas. The rest, as they said, was history.
From defence to attack, Sissoko contributed flawlessly in that monumental 5 minutes of injury time.
Hats off to him. He gives me so much confidence in the team despite the rest could be playing badly.
I’d love to know what the Newcastle fans who were laughing at us paying £30m think about him now.
Guess you haven't seen Endgame.He's just like Thor, unbelievable strength and stamina even at this late into the match. .
Don’t ruin itHis shooting is higher than his defensive ability.
How has he not won POTY?
Do you think that majority of those voting for Son are kids and Koreans?
Who did you vote for?
I missed it, I was on holiday and missed the email and the window to cast my vote (and the local elections)
Same as me. No one expected Son.I voted for Sissoko & it seemed most around where I sat did the same, because there was something of a surprise when Son's name came up.
