Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville revealed their season-ending awards in Monday’s final football campaign match, with Sky Sports pundits each choosing Player of the Season, Young Player of the Season, Signature of the Season and Director of the Season. For the Premier League campaign 2020/21. They also named their Teams of the Season, and while they both featured Robin Dias, Luke Shaw, Kevin De Bruyne, Bruno Fernandez, Phil Foden and Harry Kane, they differed in the remaining five. Read on to see their full picks. Cara Player of the Season: Robin Dias “I said on this offer at the start of the season that if this signing did not work, it would be the end of City and Pep. I think that was a huge statement, but he was a defender worth 65 million pounds, and they never replaced Vincent Kompany, It was a big hit for them last season, but he came and was the best defender in the league – and for me the best player. ”He’s like Puyol. The amount of blocks he scored in the Champions League game the day before reminded me of John Terry. Also, his leadership qualities for such a young player. To go to this big team and emerge as captain, I think that’s very special. “Photo: Robin Dias was a discovery for Man City Neville of the season: Robin Dias” Dias surprised me, as his like dominated by someone so young. I played with Gap Stam, Gary Ballester, Steve Bruce, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand … Dias is one of those people who keep the rest of the team safe. “The influence of a great center back is not just what they do in terms of their performance, they influence every other player on the fourth team and the people in front of them. Dias is exceptional.” At the start of the first season I didn’t think there was any way City could win the league, so for him to do what he did, he was the most important player this season. “Cara, Young Player of the Season: Phil Foden” He’s a player who is more classified as a midfielder, but on the left broadly is the position he played with Pep and his actual performance there is where you think of “great”. He’s not just an amazing player, we have a lot of great players, but he’s different – and not just in terms of being English, but in the Premier League. “Photo: Phil Foden has produced a great season for young Neville of the season: Phil Foden” When was the last time we saw an exceptional English talent like Phil Foden? Wayne Rooney? Foden is an unparalleled player in a generation, he’s so good. It is unbelievable. “Let’s not forget, he played for Manchester City, to join this team, with this coach, you have something incredibly special. Foden could be a terrible thing in the years to come if he does it right. The stadium.” Cara’s signature of the season: Thomas Sochik Picture: Thomas Sochik has scored nine Premier League goals this season “I’m just thinking of the West Ham effect. I must say he tasted the Premier League before, he was on loan last season. But he’s a model player for David Moyes and he’s had a huge impact.” Goals obtained from midfield and Declan Rice combination. We can talk about teams who have great seasons, but the turnaround at West Ham has been huge. “This is a team that has been fighting relegation now and going to the Champions League and I think for me, maybe the most important player in this field. And what it is in both boxes, which is a big part of West Ham’s success.” Neville’s season signing: Edinson Cavani 2:30 Gary Neville says the news that Edinson Cavani has agreed to a contract extension at Man United is “huge” and analyzes the impact the striker has had this season. “If Cavani had not worked and had become another Falcao, they would have become a laughing stock -” United got it wrong again. ” It was such a risk, they should have been I was a little worried. There was a risk and it paid off well. “Cara’s coach of the season: Pep Guardiola” If you go back to the last game of last season for Manchester City, that Champions League defeat by Lyon, it was really bad, and everyone blamed Pep Guardiola for that he returned for the next season without much rest. “When Leicester won 5-2, I was expecting Liverpool to win the league, I was expecting Liverpool to win the league, the problems were there and I wasn’t expecting to see what they have done this season.” I actually think that’s one of Pep’s greatest accomplishments because the backbone is For Vincent Kompany and David Silva are not there and even Sergio Aguero hasn’t played many games. The myths who have built City’s success over the past decade don’t exist, Pep has created something different. “2:51” Gary Neville and Jimmy Carragher chose their managers of the year as Neville’s coach for the season: Pep Guardiola … or Thomas Tuchel. If Tuchel wins the Champions League, the FA Cup and Chelsea in the top four it is him. If you told me three or four months ago. If Chelsea would win the FA Cup and Champions League and finish in the top four, I would say, “No chance.” To win the Champions League is huge. “Brendan Rodgers has done a great job and you have to balance the budget with the players these managers have. Rodgers and Shawn Daiky are an exceptional managerial performer – and David Moyes in West Ham was great, too. “But I still go with Guardiola or Tuchel because winning the Champions League and League in the same season takes a bit.” Kara team for the season Kara’s eleventh team: Martinez, Koval, Stones, Dias, Shaw, Kante, De Bruyne, Fernandes, Foden, Son, Kane. “It was easy for Ederson to go on goal, he got the most clean sheets, but I think he didn’t have much to do because City’s defense was so strong. But if you think of a team that almost fell into a comfortable top ten team, Aston Villa, his goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez jumps into my mind. He had 17 clean sheets, the best saves in the league and was just a great signature and one of the best goalkeepers in the league. ”At right-back, I went with Vladimir Koval, I love him. Playing week after week, week out, he’s been amazing and represents West Ham season. Then there’s Luke Shaw at left-back, he’s been pretty cool. “In midfield, I went to N’Golo Kante, who has since been Thomas Tuchel. His entry was as good as any player in the league – some of his performances in the UEFA Champions League were outrageous!” And in the lead, I went to Heung-Min Son. I know Mohamed Salah is the best scorer, but in terms of goals and assists. , Son has more. Beside Son I’ve gone with Harry Kane, both numbers are pretty impressive considering they have played most of the season on a defensive team. “Neville’s Team of the Season: Mendy, Walker, Dias, Maguire, Shaw, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Fernandes, Rashford, Foden, and Kane.” For me, it’s Eduoard Mendy in goal because I think, with their goalkeeper, Chelsea had problems Big and won’t be out of place now. Since Thomas Tuchel came along, their fortunes have changed defensively and it was a big part of that. “Kyle Walker has become a great defensive player for Manchester City. He was more disciplined in the way he played. I think he was an important part of what they did.” I think John Stones had a great season, but he “hugged” Dias Walker and that’s a big thing – speed In one side and wonderful dias in the other. I think Harry Maguire is the heart of the outstanding defense other than Dias in the league and has nothing to do with being Manchester United. I think he was reliable, he was consistent, he is starting to show authority and I think Manchester United has got a very good player there. If the City combines it with Dias, they will almost never be stopped. “The reason I signed Ilkai Gundogan is because I think it was not Manchester City’s season. In the period when they weren’t playing well, in a period of two or three months, I thought he was the main man. He was totally out of this world at that point and what they have done since Then it’s because of him. ”On the left, I went to Marcus Rashford. When he was doing all these things off the field, which is unbelievable, I thought there must be a consequence of that on the field, that he would start to falter and that injuries would either spread or be distracted. But he kept going and going on and he’s still there. Sadio Mane clearly did. He’s been amazing for the past three weeks, Son is a great player, but I went to Rashford because of his overall contribution both on and off the field. Maybe there is a little emotion there. ”
