jed exodous 0 Posted October 22, 2011 Is it too early to start talking about this? We''re about 1/4 of the way through now. Difficult to single out 1 i guess, but i think out of Ruddy, Tierney and Johnson. All 3 have been incredibly consistent and have all improved so much. Maybe if we keep on this good run there''ll be more candidates, but those 3 would be my top 3 so far... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
curly_whirly_tipz 0 Posted October 22, 2011 I dont want to jinx anything writing a post such as this! All of the players have been great but Tierney and Ruddy have impressed me the most so far Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sing up the river end 0 Posted October 22, 2011 For me Fox,it was when he came back into the team that our fortunes changed.He just gives the balance in the midfield,and his passing of course.Although these guys deserve a mention to Ruddy,Naughton,R.Martin,Tierney,Johnson,Bennet,Pilkington.

Aurelius 0 Posted October 23, 2011 Pilkington and Tierney for me, Pilkington plays like one that spent all his carreer in the Prmier League. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daz Sparks 803 Posted October 23, 2011 The team spirit.We have undoubtedly achieved so much this season by playing as unit. The team is greater than the sum of it`s parts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nexus_Canary 695 Posted October 23, 2011 Tierney and Ruddy, in that order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mervmeister 14 Posted October 23, 2011 Any of Ruddy, Tierny and Johnson for me.Johnson edging it for me atm, but that save a the end of the match form Ruddy yesterday along with some other crucial stops this season puts him right up there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 149 Posted October 23, 2011 It is a team effort so far; but the most consistent for me is defintely Ruddy, point winning saves & simply solid and gives teh back 4 confidence (so much so smudge has vansished! is thats not a pots performance what is?!) Really deserves a clean sheet! Other contenders in order of merit for me are:Wes - a very very close second; disappearing from view a little, under the newbies attention - but we are not the same without him pulling the strings and how work rate is prodigious. He is consistently excellent.Pilkington - coming on strong; fantastic defensive shield for tierney, and truly premier class when it comes to using the ball; THAT cross yesterday is completely underestimated - had it been beckham, young or downing the commentators self congratulatory purring would have been deafening. Fox - like his Wes - overshadowed but if he plays well we pick up points.Johnson has been a revelation, but not quite there, Naughton - a slipped into Martin shoes well, pace and quietly efficient.Tierney has been thrilling when marauding forward and v good at the back too (in prt due to his partnership with pilkington) but has made too many one off little errors (watching bellamy bear down on him, the west brom winner, not closing down boswinga spring to mind) to be pots.

The 12th Devine 0 Posted October 23, 2011 Naughton for me, no question. Lot of talk about Barnett, who is improving all the time, and Tierney who just never seems to tire, but I think Naughton would get more recognition if he was a fully fledged City player.

Gingerpele 0 Posted October 23, 2011 I don''t think Naughton has been that wonderful... He''s been good enough, but nothing special.I personally can''t see past Tierney, everyone is playing well and really there isn''t a need to single out individuals, because over the past few games with the same starting line up (and even before that) everyone has been performing equally really. But Tierney for me, has just done so much more than i expected.Last season everyone was raving about Crofts for first half of the season, saying he was a dead cert for POTS (I can''t even remember who won, was it Holt again?) and then second half of the season, he wasn''t as good (wasn''t poor, just didn''t seem to be quite as impressive). Definatly too early to be talking about POTS really... Thats why we have POTM awards as well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
