PWU Latics Podcast Player Of The Season

What a season 2020/21 has been, a real battle ground with heroes making their mark in the Wigan Athletic ‘Lounge of Legends’.

 

Callum Lang

To pick a ‘Player of the Season’ this particular May was a very difficult task for myself and so it proved for everyone else who took part and voted in our poll to find the Progress With Unity Podcast POTS.

 

I could go through the entire squad almost and make a case for each of them to receive the accolade, sacrifices made both on and off the pitch in the service of the club, playing through the pain barrier, being leaders in the dressing room, scoring and creating goals, playing with hearts on their sleeves, immensely proud of them all.

 

There has to be a winner though and it is a choice that no one can argue with, sent out to Motherwell on loan back in the summer, a decision that left most Latics supporters scratching their heads, he was recalled in January and scored in his first game back, the 3-3 draw away at Rochdale, he went on to finish the season on nine goals from 23 games, including the match winner away at Shrewsbury, the PWU Podcast Player of the Season for 2021, as voted for by you, the listeners, is Latics number 9, Callum Lang.

 

Congratulations to Langy and a massive thank you to the entire squad who gave their all this season, a debt of gratitude is owed to each and every one of them.

 

The voting was extremely close with Curtis Tilt, Jamie Jones and Will Keane very much in the running.
