The  Top Player Of Packers Review Why He IS Living The Club…..

Nick Ames Because he deserves the recognition: Son Heung-min. This was not Harry Kane’s finest season, despite a big uptick in its second half, but Son’s brilliance ensured that ultimately mattered little. Mohamed Salah had looked nailed on for this until the last couple of months and still needs mentioning, as does Kevin De Bruyne; his performance at Wolves, which I was fortunate to report on, was mindblowing and an already supreme Manchester City are transformed when he is at his best.

Gregg Bakowski De Bruyne. It looked like Salah would be a shoo-in halfway through the season but the Manchester City midfielder has been talismanic in the run-in, dragging his team kicking and screaming over the line with some supreme performances. A tip of the hat to Son, too.

John Brewin De Bruyne. In a season of no completely overriding star, he was the best player in the best team.

Michael Butler De Bruyne. The best midfielder in the world and the best player in the Premier League. He is more than the sum of his stats, though only five players scored more than his 15.

Ben Fisher Flip of a coin between Salah and De Bruyne. Sadio Mané has equally had an extraordinary season, for club and country.

Barry Glendenning Salah continues to amaze with his consistent excellence for Liverpool.

Daniel Harris De Bruyne. Needs to do more in Europe to be ranked alongside the greatest but is the standout player in England and has been for years – even when people thought Eden Hazard was.

Andy Hunter Salah. More goals than any other Premier League player apart from Son, more assists than any other Premier League player and in phenomenal form for most of the campaign. Had to deal with two major disappointments at international level plus the distraction of his contract saga.

David Hytner Salah. Joint-top scorer, top assister. Thrillingly unplayable at times.

Jamie Jackson De Bruyne. Imperious. Majestic. Gamechanging. Cool-as-the-proverbial. The Belgian illustrated why he is City’s big cheese by leaving his very best until the campaign’s killer phase. This was crowned by the pinpoint cross that created the Ilkay Gündogan winner versus Aston Villa that sealed the title.

Jonathan Liew Salah and De Bruyne have been brilliant in parts. But João Cancelo has been brilliant for a whole season, all over the pitch. A unique, underrated player.

Sachin Nakrani De Bruyne. Salah was the standout candidate in the first half of the season but his form and output significantly declined in the new year and, ultimately, it’s hard to look past De Bruyne. The best player for the best team, who also delivered the best individual display of the season away to Wolves in the run-in.

Barney Ronay Son. Began the season trying to work out what, if anything, Nuno Espírito Santo wanted him to do, ended it with as many goals as Salah. Gareth Bale got a £90m move by playing like this.

Jacob Steinberg De Bruyne had a slow start by his standards but he was exceptional after shaking off an ankle problem. His assist for Gündogan’s title-winning goal was an example of a big-game player showing up for his team when the pressure was at its peak.

Will Unwin De Bruyne. Dragged City to the title by inspiring them in tight games, as well as hitting four goals against Wolves.
