Picked on impact, level, and match-changing moments — not just stats. This week’s group earned it with saves at 1–0, tackles on the break, midfield pressure, and finishes under heat.
Thanks to the clubs for sharp nominations. The detail helps us reward the lads who actually swung points on Saturday morning.
With nominations like these, no wonder they made the Squad of the Week — “world-class penalty save,” “claimed crosses and took pressure off the back four,” “accurate kicking and clipped passes wide.”
Remember, Hugh Dunnit’s Team of the Week is picked in part on the strength of your nominations. The more detail you send, the sharper the picks.
