Ten more deserving nominees than Kobbie Mainoo for Young Player of the Season

The announcement of the Young Player of the Season contenders has resulted in the usual, and totally reasonable, irritation from fans as to why a player like Phil Foden, a key cog in Manchester City ’s first team for the last four seasons, can still be up for the gong, along with a teammate who’s scored over 200 senior goals.

He’s a very fine footballer and has had a handful of very good games, including some memorable moments, and we are well aware that Manchester United fans will be furious at any article denigrating his performances given they’ve got. We’re not saying he’s been rubbish, just not as good – IN OUR OPINION – as these ten ‘youngsters’ who should have been selected ahead of him.

No player on Chelsea’s books cares more about or is prouder of playing for Chelsea, which makes his supposedly imminent sale for ‘pure profit’ feel all the more gut-wrenching.The £60m summer signing is a victim of recency bias, because if he had saved his stellar performances at the start of this campaign for the last three months or so, he would surely be among the nominees.

But him getting lost in the Pep Guardiola shuffle is on us. If he was getting those number for Manchester United we wouldn’t stop talking about him.Struggled to make an impact in the second half of last season having joined from Bristol City for £9m in January, only featuring for 250 minutes under Gary O’Neil. But Andoni Iraola has got the very best out of Semenyo, who’s got eight goals and two assists for the Cherries this season, securing a starting spot for Ghana in the process.
