Player Of The Year - Gareth Bale oops Seamus Coleman. Tough between him and McCarthy, but I think McCarthy is going to be this good every single year and maybe even get better, so Seamus gets it.
Young Player Of The Year - Ross Barkley. Not only do I enjoy calling him Boss Rarkley, Moss Sparkley, and all manner of other names, he has produced some moments of magic which have made everyone stand up and take note.
Biggest Surprise Player Of The Year - Steven Naismith. He's been such a surprise package I'd have him in my first XI most weeks.
Most Disappointing Player - Steven Pienaar. The deep voiced South African melt has gotten worse with age, and the way he slows down play when we break forward is infuriating. Decent squad player nowadays but nothing more.
One To Watch Next Season - Aiden McGeady. Has looked pacey, direct and most importantly entertaining since he's arrived. When our midfield consisted of Linderoth, Pembridge and Alexandersson you'd of frothed at the mouth at the prospect of someone like Geads playing for us. And he'll show us why next year. He'll no doubt be frustrating, but he gets himself in the positions which is hugely important.

Player of the Year - Coleman again for me. Has been outstanding in pretty much every match and his enthusiasm, athleticism and skill makes me think he is up there as one of the worlds best full backs.
Young Player of the Year - James Mccarthy. Very influential in the way we play, just look at the Palace games without him. The lads a fighter and raises everyone's game around him and seems to demand everybody put in the shift that he does. A fans dream really. Future Everton captain.
Biggest surprise Player of the Year - Gareth Barry. After watching him in the world cup having the german midfield run rings around him i was massively underwhelmed by the signing. Shows what i know. The guy has been a revelation in our midfield and i will be gutted if he does not sign up at the end of the season.
Most Disappointing Player of the Year - Kone or Gibson for me. Purely for the fact that long injuries have meant we are missing two players who could have made a massive difference especially during the run in. Not their fault i know but i find the situation disappointing
One to watch next season - Has to be Stones for me. The lad has the world at his feet. He has shown these last couple of months that he will be the bedrock for club and country over the next ten years or so hopefully. Brilliant player who seems to have a good head on his shoulders. If he progresses like he has this year, i have no doubt he will be an England regular this time next season and up for all kinds of accolades

Player Of The Year:
McCarthy...I don't think Seamus has the season he's had without James in there so that tips it in his favour, IMHO.
Young Player Of The Year:
McCarthy...games/minutes played, first season, think having him in there helped MASSIVELY when it came to others adjusting to the new style.
Biggest Surprise Player Of The Year:
Barry...I'd written him off. I think because I couldn't get 4-4-1-1 out of my head because of the last 12 years, so I never even considered him in another setup where he doesn't need to be as mobile.
Most Disappointing Player:
Considering the preseason expectations I had and his potential, Mirallas.
One To Watch Next Season:
McGeady
I've left Mr. J Stones out of anything because he might sweep it all next year. The whole squad deserve something, though. They've all contributed to a successful manager, mentality and playing style change.

Are you saying this is the Pope's fault?
I watched him miss 4 open goals and he only played about 200minutes for us.
Thats kinda disappointing.

For me he's disappointing in the fact that we didn't get to see him, not his fault at all, just let down that we didn't have an extra striker option.

He missed some absolute sitters before he got injured, we signed him for £6m and he's been out all season. And as his main asset is his pace and he's past 30, we really needed him for the now. If that ain't disappointing I don't know what is.
Player Of The Year: Coleman and McCarthy, with notable mentions for Barry, Howard and Distin, who've all been very consistent. Coleman's started and finished the season brilliantly, and had a quieter middle where he mightn't have been giving LBs fits but was fairly decent defensively. McCarthy's work in the middle of the park has allowed our two full backs to attack, and his overall commitment and attitude has been outstanding.
Young Player Of The Year: Stones or Barkley. Ross has been brilliant in flashes, and also quiet at times. His technical and physical ability is undeniable, but he still hasn't quite defined his role/position yet. One more season and we might have a truly world class player there. Stones has been excellent in his current run, and is the most composed young CB we've had here. Positionally needs to improve, but he's 19 and that will come.
Biggest Surprise Player Of The Year: So many: Oviedo not only making Baines not missed but playing so well the unthinkable conversation of whether Baines should even go straight back into the 11 came up - such a shame his season ended like it did; Naismith's not a huge surprise for me after how Martinez managed to get the best out of Maloney at Wigan - playing under a manager who'll give you specific instructions and encouragement has obviously helped, and his play and goals have been important this season; "The Substitutes": not a specific player, but watching 2nd half substitutions changing a game isn't something we're used to. Who'd have thought introducing Osman and Naismith for Mirallas and Barkley in the 70th minute would lead to winning games?
Most Disappointing Player: Don't think we've had any terrible ones, but two big players whose form has dipped slightly at certain points has been Baines and Mirallas. In both cases, though, the stylistic changes have played their part: we don't rely entirely on Baines as our attacking threat anymore, while Mirallas's role requirements seem to have left him a little confused earlier this season, he's been excellent in recent weeks.
One To Watch Next Season: I think Barkley will step on, and he's a joy to watch. The real one to watch, though, is Martinez: in ten months he's changed Evertonian perceptions from the scope of 'cautiously optimistic - suicidal' to 'cautiously optimistic - best in der werld' - which is no small thing. He has a big transfer window and pre-season ahead, where he'll be able to further change the texture of the club - the playing staff, the style, the attitude - and build on what he's so impressively done with another manager's foundations. As someone who was born at the end of Kendall's first tenure, this is the most exciting Everton of my life.
