Team of the Season (Best XI) 08:55 - Apr 30 with 2917 viewsDaniel

As it's the awards night this evening, I thought it would be timely for us to do our own thing in picking our best XI of the season.

To keep it simple, reply with the U's players you'd choose for the following positions (you don't need to fill them all), I'll then count them up in a week to decide the final XI.

If it was based on number of appearances, this is how the XI would be filled:

GK - Matt Macey
RB - Kane Vincent-Young
CB - Jack Tucker
CB - Harvey Araujo
LB - Ellis Iandolo
DCM - Arthur Read
DCM - Teddy Bishop
ACM - Jack Payne
RW - Kyreece Lisbie
ST - Samson Tovide
LW - Owura Edwards

GK - Macey
RB - Vincent-Young
CB - Tucker
CB - Araujo
LB - Iandolo
DCM - Read
DCM - Bishop
ACM - Payne
RW - Lisbie
ST - Mbick
LW - Anderson

If anyone picks a different XI to this I'll be shocked. Honourable mention for Hunt, one of only three players not to miss a match day squad, who has been pretty solid when called upon despite playing in about four different positions!

Thought Hunt played well in the defensive midfield role.

I've been very disappointed with Bishop this year. Perhaps it is because I have such high expectations of him

I'm struggling with the inclusion of KVY whose recent performances have been below par

only because he was injured and then rushed back in at left back.

Before that, he was as consistant as they come at right back

I'm surprised Owura made the list for most appearances, but then again I guess appearances off the bench still count.

Can't argue about the other picks so far, so I will also add:

GK - Matt Macey
RB - Kane Vincent-Young
CB - Jack Tucker
CB - Harvey Araujo
LB - Ellis Iandolo
DCM - Arthur Read
DCM - Teddy Bishop
ACM - Jack Payne
RW - Kyreece Lisbie
ST - Micah Mbick
LW - Harry Anderson

That first XI has more than enough to be Top 7 and with luck/referee decisions, possibly Top 3!

However, we all know the reasons why the wheels fell off!

What I’m really struggling with is how one of our most dependable and versatile stand-in players, Rob Hunt, will miss out. Can we have an essential no. 12 Daniel? Hunt will be my only choice, and one we must nail down for next season.

Rob Hunt is certainly in the best 11 performers of the seasons, so it is an interesting debate on whether he should be in a best XI.

For me, below are definites. I agree that Bishop hasn't been as good as he could have been. KVY has been consistent...ly average. Lisbie and Edwards are probably our best wingers on their day, but Anderson has delivered when required.

No Lisbie? Seems a bit harsh. The lad scored 11 goals in his first full season in professional football. We'd barely seen him play 12 months ago. Anderson's return has been pretty incredible given that he's missed a 13 matchday squads due to injury. Definitely one of the surprises of the season for me.

I'm going to call it. Rob Hunt is going in my XI ahead of Teddy Bishop. With Wessex being 50/50 in Bishop or Hunt, I've decided our final XI for the season is:

Matt MaceyKane Vincent-YoungJack TuckerHarvey AraujoEllis IandoloRob HuntArthur ReadJack PayneKyreece LisbieMicah MbickHarry Anderson
