Championship Team of the Season

The time will soon be upon us when this will be out.

Before anyone has a go at me saying “why haven’t you picked X player” this is my closest guess on what the official team will be, feel free to play along with a break in club football now

GK: Carson (derby)

RB: Dougherty (Wolves)
CB: Bamba (Cardiff)
CB: Flint (Bristol)
LB: Douglas (Wolves)

CM: Snodgrass (Villa)
CM: Neves (Wolves)
CM: Cairney (Fulham)

LF: Sessegnon (Fulham)
CF: Vydra (Derby)
RF: Jota (Wolves)



Snodgrass as a CM might be a bit of a stretch so perhaps Saville of Millwall in there

Etheridge over Carson
Patterson over Snodgrass
Hoilett over Jota

GK: Carson
RB: Doherty
CB: Bamba
CB: Boly
LB: Doherty
CM: Neves
CM: Ralls
CM: Cairney
RW: Hoilett
LW: Jota
CF: Vydra

Etheridge over Carson
Patterson over Snodgrass
Hoilett over Jota

take those blue glasses off


patterson has only played half a season

That’s a good and unbiased selection. From a Cardiff perspective, Sean Morrison and Junior Hoilett would be close.

I’m assuming Greg Halford the football genius would be on the bench.

me personally, if i could only pick one CB from us i'd have Morrison, theres a case of course to have them both in there mind.

GK: Carson (derby)

RB: Dougherty (Wolves)
CB: Bamba (Cardiff)
CB: Flint (Bristol)
CB Morrison ( Cardiff
LB: Douglas (Wolves)

LM: Sessegnon (Fulham)
CM: Neves (Wolves)
CM: Cairney (Fulham)
RM : Hoilett

CF: Sharp (Derby)

I went for a random one with the CF.

I think yours could be spot on Paul but I thought i'd change a couple...

Derby players might not be able to get there.
Morrison and Hoilett deserve a place in my opinion.

Etheridge

Fredericks
Morrison
Boly
Douglas

Cairney
Neves

Sessegnon
B Reid
Jota

Grabban

Etheridge

Fredericks
Morrison
Boly
Douglas

Cairney
Neves

Sessegnon
B Reid
Jota

Grabban

Totally forgot about Fredricks - he's a class act!

Morrison for me is a. Must. Could argue case for Bamba too but flint probably get it for his goals.

Hoilett likely our player of year so should.be in it for sure

Is that meant to be Billy Sharp of Sheff Utd?

Not sure Flint would be in there.

From City Etheridge, Bamba, Morrison, Ralls and Hoillett deserve a mention.

Yup Billy Sharp - Always rated him and this season I think he's been very good.
Flint will be in there due to the goal and possibly Reid.

Etheridge ( possibly )

Bamba , Morrison and Hoilett ( yes )

Ralls has been very good but not as good as the ones mentioned

i like hoilett as much as the next person but theres no way he gets in the side ahead of Jota or sessegnon

Sorry guys to early to do this list imo as a lot can happen now till end of the season. You can't put 4 wolves players in there and 1 city player if we go on to win the league. How can you have 2 Fulham players if they finish 3rd and don't win playoffs. If Boro win playoffs surely they got to have some players. But if I was going to pick a team based on how it's gone so far which wouldn't be my final team. It would be as follows

Etheridge (most clean sheets)
Morrison
Boly
Sol bamba
Douglas
Sessignon
Cairney
Neves
Jota
Vydra
Reid

That's up to now not final team i will put more city or wolves depending on who wins the league. As surely the winners deserve at least 4-5 players imo for being most consistent through the season.

actually last seasons official team was announced on this date, so not too early at all.

and its about the players who have shined, theres no doubt for me that Cairney and Sessegnon deserve to be in the team, where they finish in the league is irrelevent

In terms of consistency, Morrison has to be picked.
