It's a Legion poll, any nominee will automatically get injured and miss the final.

DON'T DO IT.

I think given the age profile of the squad, "young" player now means anyone under 28.

It was very difficult this year, and really could have been a few of them, with Matty Cash running my pick very close, because he has been superb this year, and props to Ollie and Youri.

However I went for SJM, obviously because he is ace, but the immediate impact he had on his return from injury set us up for the glorious end to the season we have experienced.
