Nygren stands out in poor Celtic side - fans pick player of year

[BBC]

We asked for your views on who has been Celtic's player of the year.

Here's what some of you said:

Liam: It is hard to make a case for anyone. Benjamin Nygren is our top goalscorer but his general play is woeful. So many key players in previous seasons have been long-term injuries. Kieran Tierney has driven us on in games but surely hasn't done enough for this accolade. Yang Hyun-Jun? He has turned up when it got tough but flatters to deceive. Liam Scales did well until Christmas but makes a mistake every game.

Graeme: On the stats it has to be KT, on goals Nygren, not a lot else to say on bright spots in this season.

Shaun: None deserve it because they have all been poor. I suppose if I had to go for one player it would be Nygren simply because he has scored so many important goals.

Charlie: In a poorly performing Celtic team with all the background distractions regarding the board's dreadful recruitment and communication, Nygren has stood out. He would be even better in a properly functioning Celtic side.

Christopher: Yang has been industrious and pretty tireless, the outcomes haven't been consistent but he has come up with some important goals and assists. In a grind of a season, it seems fitting a player all but written off has refused to give up in ways so many of his more celebrated team-mates seem to have.

James: For me it's got to be the captain Callum McGregor. He has been a tower of strength for the Celtic team, has always led by example and been very professional over the season so far. Gives his all to the club and always plays when fit. He makes the team tick with his passing and steering the team to victory.

Paul: After a tough year for Celtic I feel Nygren has been about the most consistent in his play without being outstanding. His assists and goals have been vital to our position in the league and for that reason I feel he deserves a Celtic player of the year award.
