Echo News Shaun Hobson is voted Southend Unietd's player of the year

[Jai]

Hobson can absolutely play a pass. In fact, he is quite a composed defender. His decision-making has come on leaps and bounds.

I accept it's been a terrible, terrible season but I'd be surprised if we didn't keep more clean sheets than the last few seasons. The defence really wasn't the issue.

 

[Chapperz]

So we've come to the conclusion that the worst season in the history of our football club, our Player of the Season isn't a great player?

That blew my mind, I was expecting it to go to our 20-goal a season striker.

The kindest thing I can think of saying is after looking at that list and the latest incumbent, shows just how far we have fallen this season.

 

[Andy_S]

The stats suggest he is a more effective distributor of the ball than White.

Stevie Wonder would be a more effective distributor of the ball than White.

 

[RHB]

It's very easy for us to forget that Hobson is player of the year because he won 52% of the 1872 votes cast by Shrimpers supporters.

I'd have Hobson over Elvis and Beard.

 

[Barry.C]

Having watched every game I can confidently agree with Shrimperzoners votes and Chapeerz analysis that White has comfortably been our player of the season
