    Gordon.

    Purely because without him I don't think we'd be in Europe right now, which for me is the most important thing that we have that to look forward to after Christmas. Also because I severely doubted his ability when he signed and he has proved me wrong big time.

    Contributed the most goals to the team this season from a new position. Apart from that though eh?

    :50: 100% my opinion too...

    Johansen has improved and come to the fore.
    We were a shambles until Brown returned and fixed up our shape.
    But, I think without the displays and efforts of Gordon so far we'd be in a pretty bleak place and most likely without a manager right now... He's been absolutely critical so far, and to have got him for nothing is mindblowing!

    Johansen has been * hot since playing no.10 role, folk were wanting him gone at the start of the season as well:87: but for me Brown has the biggest impact, we look weak in the middle without him playing and for me he's the most important player and been in great form. Gordon in a close second then Johansen.

    The importance of Gordon, Brown and Johansen to our team can't be understated really. Those three are absolutely vital to what we're trying to do.

    For me has almost single-handedly given us something to look forward to other than the SP(HE)L.

    Gordon so far.
    Johansen if he keeps up his recent performances and adds some goals could take it.

    If Stokes was out injured, it would not effect the team nearly as much as if Brown, Johansen, Virgil, Guidetti are out.

    Gordon is different as he is a keeper but Stokes isn't a vital player to the team by any stretch. Also as I've said his decision making is most of the time absolutely terrible. Loses the ball too much and holds the play up when we're on the break so unnecessarily far too much.

    Admittedly I was guilty of that as well. He's been an absolute steal.

    Brown.... Without him in the side we are too open and easily beaten.

    Stokes out of the team has a huge effect on us. Take a look at Astra away.

    His decision making can't be as bad as you make out when he's involved in the amount of goals that he is and more than anyone else in the team.

    Pretty much this. Brown keeps the team ticking, Johansen and Stokes create about 50% of our chances at least I'd say, Guidetti bangs them in and Gordon bails out our fragile defense. There's a case for all 5 to be our POTY so far really.

    Johansen and Stokes id say have been the best outfield players, picked Johansen though. Gordon has been playing very well but not exceptional enough to be a POTY for me for a keeper.

    Stokes, Johansen and Gordon.

    Honestly can't choose.

    Gordon was immense at the start of the season just when we needed him most. Johansen has been fantastic since being moved into a forward position and Stokes has just quietly went about his business.

    Probably Stokes to be honest.

    Stokes obviously, or Johansen
    Voted for Stokes, you cannot ignore a wide man getting 8 goals and 10 assists by mid-December. If it was Forrest, Wakaso or a proper winger on those stats everyone would be creaming themselves.

    Tell you whats strange, I can't remember a Celtic keeper who has conceded at the same rate Gordon has and his nominations here are well deserved, shows you something is wrong there eh?
