Ok if you are being hypothetical, if you worked really hard and scored two goals, you would be entitled to a MOM award. It's not as though there is just one a season, so I don't know why some on here are getting so precious about it.
I agree that they are entitled to, but it doesn't help the player or the team perform better or play without fear so it's an own goal.
Maybe the better the support the better the performance?
A song for Barnes, he's been here long enought to have one.
I know I will get stick but here goes.......
Barnesy Barnesy give us a goal or two
He’s half crazy his balls are turning blue
He might miss a stylish volley
Hit the post and cross bar too
But he’ll be sweet
Get on the goal sheet
And...
Barnes had the balls to step up to the plate and take a penalty in front of a full arena and much of it would have been baying for his blood if he missed. He could have just as well been volunteering for his own execution so a lot of credit goes out to him and he deserved MOM just for that.
