Victor Ibarbo​

15 goals and 10 assists for the season has him directly contributing to more goals than every other team in Serie A except for CSKA.

Unlike his main competitors for the scoring title, Ibarbo is NOT the designated PK taker for the team.

Ends season as both the top goal scorer as well as player with most assists in Serie A, while his 3 MoTM awards were 1 off a tie for the lead in that category as well.

Table is now up to date, please make nominations ASAP

VICTOR ENYEAMA - LILLE OSC




Despite unpopular convention, Lille nominates GK Victor Enyeama for Serie A MVP. The Nigerian goalkeeper recorded 10 clean sheets in all competitions this season, and stood on his head numerous times to keep his team in matches. His 2 MotM awards were a team best, and Lille's season could have been even more disastrous without him.​

GK Marc-André ter Stegen
Borussia Mönchengladbach

​

ter Stegen, the highest-rated player on Monchengladbach, was essential in net. ter Stegen finished tied for 2nd in Serie A with 8 clean sheets and single-handedly kept the club alive in many matches. His play was consistent throughout the season, as he never went more than 3 consecutive matchdays without a clean sheet. His strong play (primarily here in TFS obviously) has now led to rumors of his transfer to superpower FC Barcelona.

3 out of 11 teams, good stuff

RedAL925 I will post later this afternoon/early evening when I'm at a computer.

so i honestly cant think of anyone on my team i can nominate..i hate them all..do i have to nominate someone?

MID - Zoran Tosic
CSKA Moscow



In what may be a surprise to most, Seydou Doumbia does not get the usual nomination from CSKA management this season. Instead, Zoran Tosic gets his first ever nomination. Without the versatile midfielder roaming the pitch this season, Doumbia may not have even cracked double digit goals for the first time in his career. While every player went through a bit of a slump at some point this season, Tosic was the only constant. He made an impact playing on the wings as well as in the middle and just seemed to make things happen more often than not.

Tosic contributed 3 goals, 7 assists (ranked 3rd in the league), was tied for the league lead with 4 MOTM awards and was named to the TFS All XI team. While the offensive stats get the majority of the attention, Tosic's defensive play was just as important as his offensive contributions in CSKA's Serie A title victory. When the ball was on CSKA's side of the pitch, Tosic helped shut down whatever area in the midfield that he was covering, be it left side, central, or right side.





​

edit: not sure why it's double spacing the lines..

​

You don't have to, no

Swansea doesn't really have a true MVP but we'll go with Vorm. 8 clean sheets...

Going wit hte goalie theme here:

Brad Guzan - he led the league with 9 clean sheets and had 4 MOTM awards, tied for MOST in the entire Serie A.

While most goalies got CS by standing around doing nothing, Guzan made TONS of amazing saves. As you know, Villa (me) likes to play a very aggressive high line of defense, often leaving Guzan alone to make stops.

He did so all the time - always willing to stand on his head!

I'll nominate Antonio Di Natale. He scored eight goals and posted four assists, providing the majority of the offense for a team that struggled in its promotion to Serie A.

He was named Man of the Match twice.
