EPL: Neville, Carragher disagree over Player of the Season
Former England internationals, Gary Neville and Jamie Caragher, have disagreed over who should win the 2023/24 Premier League Player of the Season.
This season’s Premier League will be concluded on Sunday, with Man City and Arsenal currently fighting for the title.
However, Neville picked Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard as the Player of the Season, while Carragher opted for Manchester City’s Phil Foden.
“I think every game I have watched of Arsenal, he [Odegaard] is a beautiful player,” Neville told Sky Sports.
“He is the best player in the league I have seen this season on a regular basis. He takes the balls on the half-turn, tries to play them through – the right type of passes.”
On his part, Carragher said, “I spent all day thinking about this, and my two were Foden and Palmer.
“The reason I didn’t go for Palmer, perhaps this is wrong to say this but Chelsea having a bad season and not playing in the Champions League – I could have tossed a coin on it.
“It feels like a breakout season for Foden, and now he’s one of the main players in the team. He feels central to everything they’re doing.”
