So who is your choice as Wigan Athletic player if the 2022 season?

 Personally I feel that this season is one of the most difficult that there has been to single out just one player, such has been the level of consistency across the whole of the squad. There is also the question of what criteria to use to help you make that choice.

 

Some people argue that goals win you games and look to the leading goal scorers from the squad, but there are also players who score the big goals, the ones that win you games, think Curtis Tilt at Fleetwood, James McClean at Oxford, Callum Lang at Plymouth, Stevie Humphrys at Morecambe and of course Will Keane at home to Rotherham.

 

Others look to the defence, ‘success is built from the back’ is a term often used in football and we have had some excellent performances across the back line this season, Jack Whatmough an obvious contender, Ben Amos with thirteen clean sheets in the league so far this campaign is another. 

 

Max Power with his assists, Tom Naylor here, there and everywhere, James McClean with his heart on his sleeve, Tendayi Darikwa leading on and off the pitch, Kell Watts, Jason Kerr, Tom Bayliss, Gwion Edwards, Gavin Massey, Tom Pearce and Josh Magennis have all contributed to top performances and great wins. 

 

Our man of the match polls throughout the season have had 21 different winners, again showing the level of consistency across the whole squad, below is a list of the players who have picked up the accolade.

Man of The Match Winners 2021/22

Callum Lang, Scott Smith, Gwion Edwards, James McClean, Max Power, Charlie Wyke, Kell Watts, Sam Tickle, Tom Naylor, Will Keane, Tom Bayliss, Baba Adeeko, Jason Kerr, Thelo Aasgaard, Jack Whatmough, Curtis Tilt, Gavin Massey, Ben Amos, James Carragher, Stevie Humphrys and Graeme Shinnie
