Ladies and gentlemen, here it is, FourFourTwoâÂÂs definitive rundown of the 50 Best Football League players.
This is our fourth annual Top 50 and, as ever, itâÂÂs been a fraught process, involving painstaking research, meticulous planning, copious amounts of booze and good, healthy argument.
Our thanks to every one of you who cast your votes, and to our team of experts who told us who they thought were the best players up and down the country.
Congratulations to Kevin Phillips, Jermaine Beckford, Keith Andrews and Michael Kightly who walked away with the individual prizes.
Congratulations, too, to the other 46 players who make up our list, all of you deserve a huge pat on the back for their endeavours this season.
To the other 1,000-plus players in the Football League â pull your fingers out! We hope to see you next yearâ¦
