    Couple of things:

    -I could be wrong (often am) but I don't think any of our players won this award at all last season, despite some storming spells from Freddie, Bob, Bergy, et al.

    -Wiltord's goal for France was a real cracker, but he (and the rest of the team, for that matter) didn't look so hot the rest of the time. Hope he was saving something for tomorrow.

    I'm pretty sure Bobby and/or Freddie won it. Didn't Freddie win it at the end of last season?

    You're right. Bergy won it in March, Freddie in April. So this makes three in a row for the Arsenal.

    The first two winners last season were Saha and Veron, who both went on to less-than scintillating performances. Hope this isn't like the SI jinx.

    I'll be curious to see if Wiltord wins POTM on Arsenal.com
