----------------------

NOMINATIONS

FAITHFOLD DOC MM B

Motty Korman (M) - rolled back the years with a fine display and two goals to cap it off

Raffy Zysblat (GK) - very smart goalkeeping today, as he was on and off his line exactly when he was meant to making his defender's jobs much easier

----------------------

TEMPLE FORTUNE

Nick Stern (CB) - excellent throughout against Faithfold

Danny Sherman (S) - worked hard, constant threat and great team ethic as always 

Gab Stone (Wing-back) - got into great positions and caused problems, good final delivery

----------------------

BRADY MACCABI

Sam Lipton (D) - was a rock at the back

Scott Gordon (M) - ran his socks off in an unfamiliar left midfield role

----------------------

NORTH LONDON GALAXY

Josh Shack - “Shackaldinho” was superb today, calm and composed with excellent passing throughout. Topped it off with a superbly taken goal 

James Belchak (M) - Our own Patrick Viera bossed the midfield. Kept things ticking well and was a physical presence in the middle of the park

Jack Mattey (LM) - showed why he is one the most feared players in the division, constantly taking on his man and making things happen

Jake Rinsler (CB) - absolute Rock at the back. Makes the game look easy. So composed and commanding from CB. When this boy is playing strikers play with fear

----------------------

FC TEAM

Gideon Moss (LB) - solid performance 

Eddie Sternberg (CM) - worked tirelessly 

Richard Salmon (S) - not at his best but 3 assists and a goal

----------------------

FAIRLOP FC

Bradley Gayer (CAM) - The postman. Always delivers when he needs to and today was no different, topped off his best display of the season with a fine solo goal to put us ahead

Matt Berkley (CM) - a rock from start to finish. They called it the battle of the Berkley’s and Matt most certainly came out on top

Daniel Bean (CM) - is there anything this magician can’t do? Was once nicknamed the ‘Jewish Kante’, but that’s beginning to look harsh on Daniel! Excellent

Guy Weisselberg (CB) - fautless throughout, nothing got past him, keep RJC's dangerman right-winger out the game

----------------------

REDBRIDGE JEWISH CARE A

Dan Andrews (CB) – the RJC A captain lead the RJC backline superbly

----------------------

HERTSWOOD VALE

Adam Zaidman (GK) – probably his best performance of the season so far. Big saves in key moments in the match kept us in the game, whilst hiss third penalty save of the season was at a crucial point in the match. Continuously marshalled the back four and was an absolute hero throughout. Was a huge reason for our comeback. Without a doubt the best keeper in our division

Ashley Hirschberger (CB) – moved back into the centre of the defence in Alex Trup’s absence, and just as the JC predicted, was the key man in our win. Despite a heavy one the night before, Ashley was an absolute rock at the back, giving their attackers very little throughout winning challenges and headers all over the park – Zach Neiman couldn’t get a look in! MAN OF THE MATCH.

Josh Gorb (CM) – One word to describe this man. Assured. A tactical switch during the first half saw Gorby move into the centre of the park at 2-0 down, and the rest as they say is history. Controlled play and provided necessary relief to the back 4, whilst spraying passing forwards with ease. Great performance.

James Millet (CAM) & Ben Mandel (RM) - they’re getting a joint nomination here. It’s hard to ignore these two at the moment. A dynamic duo that are linking up all over the park – think Neymar and Mbappe. Linked up incredibly for the first goal at a crucial time to give us a chance to come back into the match. James could’ve had four goals on another day, whilst Ben ‘Forest Gump’ Mandel never stops running. That’s 21 goals for the pair this season in just 10 games

----------------------

LOS CAMDEN B

Rob ‘Bobby’ Hershkorn (S) - an important player in the squad who had two fantastic goals today. He had one of his finest games in that number ten role, using his skill and ability on the pitch to move the ball quickly and take on players with ease. A dangerous player to play against and a marvel to play with. 

Rick ‘Slick’ Harris (CM) - 48 years of age and he still bosses the game whenever he’s on the field. His fitness is immense and his close ball control and reading of the game has been pivotal today. His leadership and experience was needed for our victory

Yoel Deal (M) - an unbelievable performance from the captain and another vital player for us. Playing today carrying an injury he picked up at training a few days before. His work-rate was fantastic, came out on top in every challenge and his passing was top

Joe Levy (M) - our man-of-the-match today, had a fantastic first game back. An absolute engine, played with pace on the left side of midfield then moved to the centre utilising his strength. His fearlessness and constant desire to win the ball back and press the opposition showed what we have missed in previous games, made a great impact today

----------------------

LOS CAMDEN A

Steven Murad (GK) – had an excellent game today, his handling, presence and distribution were brilliant again this week, Moo’s fantasy football points are rocketing after his penalty save last week and clean sheet here

Matt Perlman (RB) – played his first game for the A’s and stepped up with an excellent performance, he is a player in fine form, his tough-tackling, strong running and clever play earned him MOTM and was a vital part of the clean sheet. 

Elliot Moslawy (LB/CM) – had to slot into LB from CM after Tiano’s injury and showed his class, maturity and versatility again today. Elliot won all his battles and kept the ball moving nicely, an extremely intelligent player

Guy Fenton (CDM) – stepped into CM for the missing Johann Jordi and had another strong performance, his defensive cover and vocal approached ensured the clean sheet. On another day, Fents might have found himself on the scoresheet and was a nuisance at set-pieces 

Sacha Nusenbaum (CM) – The Geordie Roy Keane, Sacha was immense today, he is seeking to patent protect his party trick the sliding tackle, Sacha seemed to thrive with the extra responsibility arising from absentees covering every blade and winning every 50/50

REFEREE NOMINATION: Andy Myerson - had an excellent game today, Andy deserves credit for getting every decision correct - when at times players and touchline bystanders were attempting to trick him. Praising referees is a rare sight in this league but Andy showed today why he is so highly respected as a top referee in the league

----------------------

JEWDINESE 

Billy Lee (CM) - did not stop running all game. His passion and effort is something I wish all of our players had. Was quick to close down every time an Oakwood player had the ball, whilst also being very clever when he was in possession. A very impressive performance.

Zac Brin (S) - the performance we’ve all been waiting for from Zac. Was a nuisance for the centre-backs all game, using his size and strength to perfection. Got on the scoresheet and had a hand in the build up to the penalty. I just want to see it every week now!

Adam Dousie (RB) - didn’t put a foot wrong at right back. Covered very well defensively and was always an option going forward
