Ben de la Fuente (Norstar) - just edged out Brixton No. 1 Jake Doffman. The Norstar No. 1 is without a doubt the best goalkeeper in the division, according to Phil Peters, and "definitely the best" his manager "has seen in his limited time in the MSFL". "Performed miracles at times this season and put in big performances when it mattered"

Dan Jackson (Glenthorne Utd B) - "17-year-old played every game this season. Used to be a striker but Elliot Coulton transformed him into a top right back. Coulton said: "Dan hasn't looked out of place"

Josh Gaon (Norstar B) - "21-year-old has played wide left and left back this season. He has the running of Gareth Bale, the cutting in of Arjen Robben and the throw of Rory Delap. Josh scored some important goals as well as offering dedication and quality all season"

Julian Gertner (Los Blancos) - "in two words, Julian is LB's Mr Consistent. As a morph of both the traditional and modern full-back, Julian, 21, spends the full 90 week in week out keeping the opposition well at bay as well as marauding forward at any opportunity to provide Adam Hersh with extra firepower. He hasn't put a foot wrong all season, and often has the knack of making the opposition - and his teammates in fact - look very ordinary. His energy and technical ability are second to none, and most importantly he has a calming influence on the rest of the team
