Bent would normally be the first on this list, however, a new manager's signings can often dictate how successful he'll be and how his tenure will be defined so it has to be one of the new boys for me.

We don't have one key man, as the replies so far suggest there's a bunch of players who can be massive for us this season, the more of them that perform the better.

I think the spine of the team; Given, Vlaar, Karim and Bent will be much more important collectively than any one individual player.

Shay Given - I have a feeling he could be very busy this season

If Gabby can find consistency it could be him. His best game is miles better than Bent's, just hasn't done it enough. That said, it all depends on Lambert's opinion, so if I was putting money on it I'd probably go for one of the new boys, Vlaar or KEA.

Ireland for creating goals. Bent for stuffing them away. Can't decide.
