I voted for Yossi Abuksis, he is currently in the best form of all of the other options, though Badir certainly made the most impressive comeback this season. Banin and injury prone Zeitouni are off form.
I respect Tal Banin.
His play brings composure to a team.
He can make a chance from one vertical path.
(However, as for this, Abuksis may be more excellent.)
I voted for Badir since I see that he got only one vote. Actually I agree that Abuksis deserves the position too. What about 2 defensive midfielders? In my opinion both of these players are candidates for player of the year.
P.S. Yes Japanese I agree with you about Hazan. He scored a great goal against Spain for example. And he is still a good player for Ashdod.
Hazan is a good candidate but was never seriously considered by Nielsen as far as I can remember and he is indeed kind of old. We can have 2 Defensive midfielders but I got the impression that we're gonna have a team consists of a Defensive Midfielder, 2 wingers and one attacking midfielder, unless you think we should change that.
I'm the one who voted for Zeitouni.
It's true that I don't follow the Israeli league like you do.
But he impressed me a lot when I've seen him playing and i vote for the future.
Zeitouni has a lot of potential and I think we will see him doing great things in the future. He played a major cog in Hapoel Haifa's championship season a few years back and has been unlucky this season with Maccabi's failure and his repeat injuries. Hope he will do better next season.
And Shayan amazes me with his Israeli football knowledge once again
Was it on Futbol Mondial as well?
BTW - Seeing a guy like Heinze playing for Denmark while he is 39 made me wonder why not Hazan really. Maybe we can call him up again, seeing as the so called young ones aren't doing any better.
