Ranking Players of the Season So Far in Europe's Big 5 Leagues
The last international break of the calendar year gives us a chance to breathe and take stock of just what we've seen so far this season - now we're around 11/12 games in. Trends have taken shape, teams have gelled (or not) and certain players have emerged already as leading Player of the Year candidates, We stretch our legs across Europe to rank the top three players so far across the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga and Ligue seasons, with plenty of honourable mentions and disagreement along the way. There's also Things We Love, which includes our new merchandise range with New Balance (football shirt [https://www.newbalance.co.uk/pd/penalty-short-sleeve-gk-jersey/EMT9022.html], hoodie [https://www.newbalance.co.uk/pd/teamwear-training-hoody-oth/EMT9045.html] and walkout jacket [https://www.newbalance.co.uk/pd/teamwear-training-jacket-knitted/EMJ9032.html]), the Brendan Rodgers to Manchester United (and City!) rumours, and Hugo Duro emerging as a cult hero for the right reasons this time, at Valencia. Dean has to backtrack on some big claims last week to pick the latest Melon contender, and Sam's Gibberish takes on the form of his last three searches on Google - don't worry, it's clean. It's Ranks! If you'd like to join us over on Patreon, for two extra podcasts a week, we'd love to have you as part of our brilliant Ultras community!
