13.11.15 Stuttgarter K. A Second Division 1:2 7771 Siebert

A pretty decent start for Greene and his club (currently 3rd) as he has several good games and chips in with an unexpected goal. If the defender can find some more consistency he could maintain his first team position for some time.

BvR's record speaks for itself. The 30-year-old striker has 18 goals in 21 games, 8 MOM, and an incredible match rating that could see him claiming for major awards.

Toothrot contributing well with his new club and hoping for some trophies. 6 assists so far in the season. At 100,000 pounds per week only BvR makes more at Roma.

A twisted knee kept Napoli's captain and star striker out for a few games at the beginning of the season. A MOM and two goals against Dumferline was probably his best game thus far. 8 goals in 12 games, and so far no sign of the calf strain that kept him for most of last season.

A good start to the season for midfielder Lefty as he captains his clubs through early season struggles. A knee injury has kept him out for several games. His league form has not been quite the standard of his cup and continental play. His best game was against Hajduk in a 2-goal and 2-assist performance.

Juel Hansen in good form for Club Brugge, but they are now out of Continental competition having finished 4th in the first group stage. The 2-time Supporter's player of the year has 11 goals in 14 games this season.

Despite Pants stuggles, Celtic continues into the next round of the Champions Cup finishing first in their group above PSV, Kaiserslautern, and Rosenborg. The winger turnged wing-back has been on fine form in league play scoring 3 goals in 8 games so far.

End of Season 2015/2016

Yo Buffro

Only 2 goals and no assists for the midfielder in a rather poor season. Juventus finishes 6th in the league and makes the quarters of the UEFA Cup before going out to Koln. Buffro has been criticized in the media for his dull form, and has taken it personally. Strained knee ligaments kept his appearances down as he missed several games at the end of the season.

BvR

The veteran striker and Roma captain outdid even his extremely high standard with an amazing season. In a season for the ages, BvR led his club to a league and Champions Cup double, leading all goalscorer's in both competitions. His 21 goals in league was just expected, but the player shattered the Champions Cup record by scoring 23 goals in 23 games. BvR scored a hattrick to give his club an aggregate over Barcelona in the Quarter Finals 4-2, then scored every goal for his club as they marched to the title. All 3 in the semifinals, and then a hattrick in the final that will be remembered for all time. He scored after an elegant first touch in the 2nd minute then added two heded goals to take his tally to 23 for the competition. The Faroe Islander must be considered the top candidate for World Player of the Year. Mexico manager Mattimosi Janz has been quoted as saying: "My vote was obvious, how could you not vote for him?"

The unlucky defender continues to see the end of his career go from bad to worse. His team Blackburn finished dead last in the English 1st Division this year. Captaining the club most of the year, Raschi had a very fine season, averaging 5.4 tackles per game and really being considered one of the best defenders in the league. He has naturally become unhappy with his club's position, but despite his contract being unprotected, no one has made a bid for the veteran San Marino player.

Georgio George expected to be named Serie A Player of the Year in summer ceremony

Milan striker Georgio George, having led the club to the Serie A title is most pundits pick for Serie A Player of the Year for the 2017/2018 season.

In 26 appearances, George scored 11 goals. George's tally would certainly have been higher had two groin strain's not kept him out of 2 months during the season. Nevertheless, his contribution to his club's season won't be overlooked, say most observers.
