There are just days remaining to vote for both Arsenal fan’s player of 2022 and the fan’s footballer of the year of which both Bukayo Saka and Beth Mead have been nominated. In the Arsenal player category from the men’s team, Saka is running away with it.
The England international has three-quarters of the vote with Granit Xhaka (12%) William Saliba (9%) and Ben White (4%) playing a significant catch-up game. There is still time to change the scenery in the Arsenal standings however so do not miss out.
This is the third time that the competition has run and both Mead and Saka are in the frame to try and chase down the winner of last year’s award, Mohamed Salah. The Liverpool forward remains out in front at this moment in time however with more than 26% of the vote.

Beth Mead yet is the closest to the Liverpool winger. The Euros winner and Ballon d'Or runner-up has 19% of the vote and so a big push from the Arsenal faithful might help claim it for Mead.
Bukayo Saka is in the fourth spot at the moment behind Bruno Guimaraes but ahead of Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne. Saka has 12% of the vote but his performances for England at the World Cup are surely worthy of further support this year.

Emile Smith Rowe was the recipient of the Arsenal fans’ footballer of the year for 2021 and although the Hale End graduate has missed much of this season with an injury, seeing another academy product lead the way this year yet again shows the success of the club’s development. The recruitment for both the men’s and women’s teams has also been excellent and signing Mead in 2017 has helped win the Gunners a couple of trophies along the way.
Mead might be out with a long-term injury but further signings have helped Jonas Eidevall ensure his side are in with a shout of the title again. For Arteta, Ben White has become a critical part of his side, he’s integrated William Saliba and turned around the fortunes of Granit Xhaka.
To cast your vote select Arsenal and click on the player you believe should win and then in the Fan’s Footballer of the Year vote for either our Beth Mead or Bukayo Saka. Voting closes on Thursday, with the winner being announced on December 19.
