Who has been Sunderland's Player of the Season (so far)?

Transcript

00:00 Patterson, probably Dan Neal and Trehume as well, I think would run Clark closest for me.

00:06 I think Trehume over the course of this season has been sublime.

00:10 Yeah, there's only Ballard I think that I would add to that conversation as well, to the ones you've said.

00:15 I think Ballard and Trehume are pretty similar.

00:17 It's sort of really, from very good years last year, they've become the established players that you wanted them to be.

00:23 And they found a real level of consistency.

00:26 But it has to be Clark, right? It's just, you know, it's been a joke.

00:32 It's been an absolute joke what he's done this season.

00:34 I know some people from the outside might say, well, he scored four penalties.

00:39 Well, yeah, but he won three of them.

00:40 You've got to score them.

00:41 Yeah, you've got to score them.

00:44 And if you're the one who's getting fouled because they can't defend against you in the box, then that's kind of on you as well.

00:50 He's just such a, I don't know, he's barely had a bad game.

00:56 He's already matched his goal tally from last season, this season.

01:00 He's got nine, which is scandalous, really.

01:03 Yeah, and the fact that he's developed his game so much.

01:06 You think when he arrived, he used to get a lot of criticism for being predictable because he was always cutting inside on his right foot.

01:11 And, you know, that developed pretty quickly.

01:14 If you think to that famous goal, as I do very often, where he tees up Patrick Roberts, you know,

01:19 when he takes a defender by surprise by shimmying down the left.

01:22 You know, we saw him do that again for Aushish's goal on Saturday.

01:26 Yeah.

01:27 We're kind of out.

01:28 We probably shouldn't dwell too long about it because we've kind of got to get back to it.
