The obvious candidates are Ramirez and puncheon. For me though I thought Cork was outstanding. Time after time he won the ball back, picked up loose balls and got us moving again. Nothing spectacular but a superb display.

Ramirez, just, and mostly on stats. One goal; one assist. However, Lallana, Puncheon and Cork were great too. Whole team was up for it today. Very pleasing.

Jack Cork. Doesn't particularly do anything special that will stand out to the 'skills school' mongs, but he was outstanding. One of the best tacklers we've had in years.

Ramirez loves a nutmeg, at least one every game I have seen him play. Puncheon and Lallana were fantastic. Those three were great. Morgan made some important interceptions.

 

Clyne and Shaw were good at full back too.

 

That's nothing, even the ball boy managed to nutmeg Cisse :lol:

Thought both CB's played very well today. Read the game and cleared everything up.

 

Morgan was fantastic today. Th whole team linked well and some of our attacking play is first class

 

I would probably also go for Ramirez. Thought that first incident in the box was a penalty... He was looking for it but he knocked it by the defender beautifully and he made contact with him... impeded his run = penalty.

Goal and an assist though. Can't ask for much more...and he seldom gives the ball away... Fantastic player.

puncheon...although, a flip of a coin between him and ramirez..

 

saying that..about 6 players could easily win the vote

 

....And this is why we need multiple vote polls for MOTM to get a better perspective.......No, I will NOT shut up about this!;)

I understand where you're coming from, but part of what makes this interesting is the difficulty and debate that results from having to pick just one.

 

Plus there's always the thread discussing it to give honourable mentions. ;)

Can't remember him not winning a header - he gets my vote.

 

According to the statzone thing on iphones Fonte won all of his headers and all of his tackles. Bless him.

Agree Cork has made a big difference to the team since he has come back. Players like him never get the glory. One of Chelsea's best players a few years ago was Makelele - provided the platform for them and France to go and play. However, that's just it - you still need the "skills school" players like Ramirez to go and win you the game. So, your use of the word mongs just makes you look a mong really.

For me the star of the show was the interplay between Ramirez, Lallana and Puncheon, but if you pick out one of them, it has to be Ramirez.

 

Clyne was very good going forward AND in defence today.

For me punch today. But everything he had on show and his movement, along with our entire front line, was class. Special mention to ramirez who's looking better every game, his close control with the ball is a joy to watch. But again with most on here good displays all over the park and from the man on the side ;)

very tough one to call. The whole midfield played well. Cork has been absolutely sensational since he came back. I doubted he would make a big impact, but he has proved me wrong. Long may his form continue. That said, Puncheon had another stormer. He caused so many problems for Newcastle and he just never gave the ball away. Top class.

Agree with all the above. I also think Yoshida is starting to fit in quite nicely too.

 

Good shout on yoshida. Looked assured today. Only slight niggle, his clearances were dropping short now and then. Not exactly a beast of a cb but hopefully, given time, the backroom staff will work there manage and he can bulk up a touch just so he has that touch of power all the best cbs have.

I thought fonte was quality today at the back attacking wise so many to choose from but i would go for Puncheon.

 

Fonte has probably been our best CB this year.

Tackling, controlling the ball and short-passing. The most basic skills in football but so essential, Cork is a master of all three.

Cork for me, for the 3rd game running. He's been ridiculously good and really makes us tick in midfield. It's no coincidence that we've hit some form with him back in the side.

Lallana for me, the most determined individual for both goals.

 

Gaston was also excellent, as was everyone really.

 

Gazza needs a big mention too, really put a good shift in today

Must say, he has looked more and more determined as the season has gone on. Really is starting to look like he belongs in the Prem. Lallana that is

Cork shaded it for me, just ahead of Fonte and Puncheon. Not a single bad performance. Must be the first time that Rickie's not had anyone vote for him, even though he had another outstanding game.

Tuff one. Went for fonte, led from the back won all his headers and blocks. Safety first, about time too. Clean sheet.

 

honourable mention to cork, punch, Ramirez, lallana
