(still time for the CCM draw as well)

I normally split it up between 3 players. Was difficult thinking of a third player who deserved points this week

Vs Newcastle (and a few more hours for last weekā€™s derby)

https://www.sfcu.com.au/2021/05/08/player-of-the-season-2020-21/

I fell a bit behind on this, so here are the last four MOTMs:

Wk 17 2-2 vs Adelaide: Bobo (2nd for season, 17th of career)
Wk 18 2-2 vs CCM: Milos Ninkovic (6th for season, 37th of career)
Wk 18 1-0 vs MV: Bobo (3rd for season, 18th of career)
Wk 19 2-3 vs WSW: Anthony Caceres (2nd for season, 6th of career)

Voting has dropped off a little over the past few weeks. It would be great if we could get some solid numbers heading into the end of the seasonā€¦ That said, voting for the draw with Newcastle is still open:

It says a lot about the WSW match that a sub who played 15mins gets MoM.

Week 21 vs Western Utd (and about 10 min left on last weekā€™s draw vs Newy):

https://www.sfcu.com.au/2021/05/15/player-of-the-season-2020-21/

Result for the away draw with Newcastle:

Milos Ninkovic picked up his 7th(!) MOTM of the seasonā€¦ heā€™s the only player with more than 3, and this now beats his MOTM tallies from every season except 2016-17, when he got 11.

Still time to vote for the win over Western Utd: Vote: Week 21 vs Western Utd - Player of the Season 2020-21 | Sydney FC Unofficial (SFCU)

Thought Warland had a top game and gave him 3 points. Love the way he can he hit a vertical pass, at speed, along the ground to feet from 25 metres. Gets it straight from defence to striker and cuts out all the never ending fiddling in midfield. Defended well too.

Had to give some love to Joel King today. He had a blinder

Yeah, I gave him the 3 points. He played so well, and that set-up for the goal was top shelf.

After winning 5 MOTMs in the first 8 matches this season, Milos Ninkovic had a quiet period, going 9 matches without a MOTM. But heā€™s definitely back, with the win away vs Western United making it 3 from the past 5. It takes his tally to 8 for the season (next most: 3 ā€“ Kosta & Bobo), and 39 for his career (next most: 21 ā€“ Grant & Vedran).

Thanks to all voters ā€“ still plenty of time to get yours in for the derby win, and the win over Melbourne will be open until Wednesday night at the same link: Vote: Week 22 vs WS Wanderers & Week 21 vs Melbourne Victory - Player of the Season 2020-21 | Sydney FC Unofficial (SFCU)

Another game for Milos! Despite starting on the bench, Ninko got his 3rd consecutive MOTM in the midweek win over Melbourne. It was a close one though ā€“ he only picked up 33 votes from the 32 voters, but it was just enough to pip second place on 31 votes.

Voting is still open for the derby win at the usual place - Vote: Week 22 vs WS Wanderers - Player of the Season 2020-21 | Sydney FC Unofficial (SFCU)

Shows milos dominance this year when he can play one third of the minutes of others and still come out as the best player

Part of it will be the Milos factorā€¦ Just typing his name makes me want to vote for him

Apologies, think I missed the MV game. Best view Iā€™ll have all year up in a box, blame the free Balterā€™s for remembering very little of the evening.
