[VJ1762]

It should be between the Spider and James, right?

 

[Tel074]

It should be between the Spider and James, right?

Yeah that's the two I'd go for. I don't think anyone else is even a realistic shout

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

James for me.

 

[Ian Reus]

They've all been outstanding but surely it goes to James for the goals.

I can see James get a few of these this season.

 

[fergiesarmy1]

Yep James no doubt for me.

 

[groovyalbert]

Controversial, but James

 

[DWelbz19]

I'd probably have Martial over Maguire.

Wan Bissaka has been the only real consistent performer, but James' goals have seen him have higher peaks within games.

 

[clarkydaz]

All the new guys

 

[kr1s74]

Yeah that would be my thinking.
Wan Bissaka for consistently being good at what he does very well, James for his increasingly better crosses into the box and the goals

 

[royboy16]

Tough one as both James and AWB have been great.
Probably James as hes a newbie to the premier league and has started well.

 

[charlenefan]

AWB for me

James' goals have been a surprise but his all round performances are that what were expected and not in a positive way whereas AWB's performances have also been as were expected but this time very much in a good way

 

[Vidyoyo]

Martial for me

 

[RedDevilCanuck]

Martial looks to be a man on a mission. Shame about the officiating in the Palace game and shame about the injury.

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

AWB for me. Only just ahead of James.

 

[Bastian]

AWB for me. James is close though. No on else remotely plausible.

 

[Random Task]

All the new guys

Speaks volumes for Ole to be fair.

I'm going with AWB with James a very close second.

 

[Amadaeus]

Talk about great additions. All the players we bought are nominated. Demote Ole to DoF/transfer committee, and hire pochettino as our manager.

 

[John Blund]

James for me. AWB if I disregard our last game. AWB was giving the ball away too often. And James scored again. Both players make me excited for our future.

 

[FootyGirl88]

This is tough, I think I’ll vote James

 

[Ekeke]

Speaks volumes for Ole to be fair.

I'm going with AWB with James a very close second.

It does but not in the way you're suggesting. James, AWB and Maguire have done quite well so far, but the rest of the team has mostly underperformed. That also suggests the changes he's made to the team haven't been a positive for those players

 

[Deery]

Wan Bissaka for me been the best from day one.

 

[Gator Nate]

I went AWB, consistently good to outstanding for near 90 minutes every week. Not to take away from the other two, though, they've all three been blessings to this team.

 

[Random Task]

It does but not in the way you're suggesting. James, AWB and Maguire have done quite well so far, but the rest of the team has mostly underperformed. That also suggests the changes he's made to the team haven't been a positive for those players

The rest of the team have definitely underperformed, but it's hardly fair to hold the current manager responsible for that considering those very same players largely underperformed for the managers that signed them; Moyes, LVG and Mourinho.

Ole clearly doesn't rate the majority of them which is why he wants to do a complete rebuild, starting this summer with a mass-clearout of deadwood and a few new recruits who have been our best performers thus far.

 

[Spaghetti]

AWB for me. Barely put a foot wrong defensively and, although there’s room for improvement, he has surprised me with his contributions going forward.

James has scored, so obviously he’ll be noticed, but it has to be AWB.

 

[0le]

Pogba. Still carrying the entire midfield, and the club, on his back.

 

[Deery]

Pogba. Still carrying the entire midfield, and the club, on his back.

It’s between Wan Bissaka, James and Maguire

 

[A-man]

James has been great but I don't like his dives. Bissaka has been great and I love his dives.

 

[El Zoido]

AWB should win.

 

[VeevaVee]

James for me. WanB has done well but James has shown extra grit.

 

[SAFMUTD]

Lingard for sure

 

[Schmeichel's Cartwheel]

Martial should be over Maguire.

It's clearly James anyway, or DJ as I've taken to calling him

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

James probably.

Credit to Martial though, getting rid of the doubts of him as a #9.

 

[BIG DUNK]

Daniel James. He has performed beyond expectations, proving a game changer beyond his young age.

 

[Ekeke]

The rest of the team have definitely underperformed, but it's hardly fair to hold the current manager responsible for that considering those very same players largely underperformed for the managers that signed them; Moyes, LVG and Mourinho.

Ole clearly doesn't rate the majority of them which is why he wants to do a complete rebuild, starting this summer with a mass-clearout of deadwood and a few new recruits who have been our best performers thus far.

I think its fair to say that some of them are playing some of their worst stuff at this current point and did better under previous managers. Young, Lingard, Matic, Bailly, Rojo and Mata were all better under previous United managers. Obviously some of the others who werent performing have also been sold or loaned out.

So despite our 3 new signings being among our best players so far this season, we're still 8th at the moment because overall we've been worse.

 

[Class of 63]

Fred, i'm just surprised it's open to debate.

 

[TRUERED89]

Martial should have atleast been a nominee.

 

[Class of 63]

But seriously:

Nani James 42%
One-Two Bissaka 35%
King Arry 23%

 

[roonster09]

It's between James and AWB. Not sure who deserves it more.

Maybe I will go with James considering the expectations.

 

[Von Mistelroum]

James for sure. Sadly the fact that it's the new lads isn't a good sign. I suspect that a few months with our team and they'll be performing on the same level as everyone else.
