Voted for Manny, but Waffles almost nailed it, I expect my new favourite Belgian will grab a few MoMs tho as the season rolls along

Close for me between Manny and Fenton. Gave it to Manny because he bossed that midfield and got 2 assits. Great to have him back in there

Works well. Fenton for me. As good as Manny was, Fenton was outstanding on debut. Poised, runs well with the ball at his feet and what a stunning goal (from a stunning cross)

 Gotta be Fenton. Manny was a standout byt Louis was just AWESOME. Dangerous on the ball, creative, chased hard, tackled well, and WHAT a finish! What nmore could you possibly have asked for on debut?


Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.


Phoenix fans. We have to win them over one fan at a time.

I think Manny did what he all knew he could do which was extremely effective. Fenton gets it for stepping above what I thought he could do. Goal aside, he gave us what we've been missing from Bertos and other wingers the last year.

It's got to be Manny, his control of the middle of the park was outstanding, Loui was a very very close 2nd.

Then you're not voting for Man of the Match. You're voting for "most pleasing to you personally performance".
Manny had the biggest influence on the match. 2 assists from winning tackles in the mid-field, plus everything else he does to boss the mid-field.
Not that Fenton wasn't great. It was awesome that he wasn't the first sub.

Fenton easily.

I thought Manny was clearly best on the field.  Husygems and Fenton neck and neck for 2nd.

 I voted Manny but i thought Durante was fantastic also. He had such a composed and clinical game it was hard to even notice he was there. Shoulve had a goal too

Manny for mine, looks like most agree. Vastly improved player from a few years ago

For me Muscat but also very closed behind was Smith.  Manny the ball hunter and distrubter and Smith the box to box player that complement each other so well in the midfield engine room.

My vote went to The Moosecat, thought he was superb all game. Brilliant first game by Louie Louie , I would put him in 3rd spot behind Dura.

We're the WELLINGTON Phoenix

Between Fenton and Muscat for me, given to Fenton due to it being his debut and being brave enough to take the shot that he did.

Fenton... how many players would have made the run he did to get that goal??

You can't teach that sort of energy or commitment to a player, you either have the heart or not. He has the heart and decent skills to go with it.

Also, it was his debut.... he could have shitted bricks and had a mere with all the pressure he was probaly feeling, but instead he has a blinder.

After much deliberation  It's Manny for me !!
