Player of the Season...2015/6

[Morse]

Hello everyone.

Most will know me. I am a visitor to quite a few LFC sites and have been the custodian of the Player of the Season game for over 10 years now. The game has spanned many different sites in its time; currently the voters come from YNWA, Est1892, 6CM, Scouser Tommy, TLW, IrishKop and bOOTroom.org. I am hoping that adding more voters from other sites will give a more accurate picture of our feelings as Liverpool supporters.

I hope that you will all play a part in this 12th year to enable us to get a picture of our players' performances and to crown a worthy winner come May 2016.

Previous winners:

2005 Jamie Carragher
2006 Steven Gerrard
2007 Dirk Kuyt
2008 Javier Mascherano
2009 Xabi Alonso
2010 Javier Mascherano
2011 Steven Gerrard
2012 Luis Suarez
2013 Luis Suarez
2014 Luis Suarez
2015 Philippe Coutinho

This season, the format will be as follows:
Instead of voting for a single player as your Man of the match, you vote for your top 3. This enables a "steady Eddie" like Allen or Hendo to get his mentions and gain some points. Points are the same as last year; the top player gets 5 points, the second player gets 3 and the third player gets a single point.
I will award a bonus half point if our Goalkeeper keeps a clean sheet.

All competitive games are counted, CC, FA, Europa/Champions League and, of course, Premier League matches.

I shall post current league tables so that we can follow the players' performances throughout the season.

If a moderator could ensure a "sticky" when I post a Man of the Match thread, I would be grateful; also it would be nice if I could have a sticky league table thread for the game throughout the season.

Thanks for your support in this.
Getting 7 different Liverpool sites to vote throughout a whole season gives a good indication of the fans' feelings on players.
I look forward to collecting and calculating the results throughout the season.

YNWA.

Stu.

As ever Morse, cheers for the time and effort you put into this.

I personally think the magician will take it again this year.

Yep, top man mate, me & the other moderators will try to stay on top of the threads, sticky them & move them to your sub forum to make your life a tad easier.

I'll take this opportunity ask all posters to refrain from making their own motm threads, it only confuses matters & makes this harder for morse.

Hello Morse.
Thanks again.

If Benteke wins this year we will win the league.

But if there is no MOTM thread even a few hours after the game, isn't it better to create one so people can vote fresh after seeing the game? If the thread appears too late, there are less people voting normally.

Cheers Mr. Morse, great job, appreciated by many.
But I was just wondering if it was possible to stick a triple poll, with the view results option, on top of your MOTM threads, for 1st 2nd & 3rd choices. We could still all follow that up with our opinions as to why each and every one of us are correct and justified while the polls would show the general consensus in a neater manner. Plus on a shitty crap day(e.g 6-1 away to Stoke) you would know the exact numbers without having to decipher some of our angry gibberish.

Good point. Morse does a fantastic job and I'm all in favour of helping him out in any way possible, but this ^^^^^ bears thinking about.
