EMC has been really impressive this season very hard to bundle off the ball a major focal point of our attacks scored some big goals and provided a few assists. Works harder for the team aswell now tracking back. Pusb
Bizarrely, as we've been so good and bar the December - Feb dip pretty consistent throughout the season, none of the outfield players have particularly stood out, they have all been good, and have all had bursts where their levels have gone up, e.g. BTA early in the season, Simms and his run if goals, Rudoni now. Same with the midfield with Torp for example and defenders where Kitching and Thomas started so strongly then fell off a cliff.
The only player despite his kicking has been 7-9 week in week out is Rushworth.
Rushworth is going to win it by a landslide, the rest have just been good its a case of picking the more consistent players which Grimes falls into that category considering when he drops a decent performance we say he’s not at it, Thomas has been quite important and it is noticeable when he’s not in the side
I can’t consider Wright in top 3. Obviously his goals make a huge difference and has tons of ability and potential but the inconsistency and “can’t be bothered” phases just drive me nuts. He also has one trait that as a former player I see and hate. He dribbles into positions where he’s blocked or boxed in and hits a shot that has absolutely nowhere to go but straight into a defender’s leg. He did really well to score a “hit and hope” from a similar position and scored recently (Sheff Utd?) but in this case there was an actual gap. I’ll continue to be patient but I really want to see the best version of him more often.
