What happens if we score worldies in the last few games? Hate this shiz with awards that are handed-out for a season that's not yet finished.

No poll? FFS. Anyway, Ings vs Newcastle is the correct answer.

Archer v Chelsea for me. What a moment for him and the fans

4 really good goals in that list that all deserve a mention:
Watkins vs Brighton was the most fluid counter-attack I've seen from us in years.
Ings against Newcastle is incredible technique.
Ramsey against Norwich shows the player he can become with his drive from midfield and then the quality and composure to beat the defenders and place his shot.
Finally Cam's goal against Chelsea is as close to the perfect header as you'll see.

I think I'm leaning towards the last 2 but I can't pick between them.

Agreed! I think the votes for the PFA awards are cast several months before the end of the season?

Yes, I seem to remember Giggs winning player of the year a few years back, past his peak but he had been in-form for a couple of months mid-season (Nov-Jan, I think) before tapering-off. Because the votes were cast Jan/Feb-time, he was fresh in people's minds as being the best player that season.

Ings is the obvious choice but I love a team goal followed by a crackerjack finish. So I'm going for Watkins vs Brighton on the break (important one too to break a five match losing streak) with honourable mentions to McGinn vs Palace and Archer vs Chelsea (as well as Ings of course). We've scored some decent ones.

Buendia's finish against Brentford and his header at Everton - great leap and angled contact for a little'un, deserve a mention.

Hope he doesn't get crowded-out if we buy Coutinho, Emi will only improve.

1 - Ramsey v Norwich. Just perfect technique. Great surging run, strength to hold off the challengers and a cracking finish.
2 - Archer v Chelsea - lovely team build up and a truly brilliant header.
3 - Ings v Newcastle - not a hit and hope overhead, but powerfully directed from miles out.

Between Ings Ellis kick Vs Newcastle and Ollie at home to Soton (lovely move all round before a great turn a finish) for me.

Either Ramsey or Archer for me. Will add a poll after work this evening.
