A new era for the awards

Season 27 also marks the debut of our imoroved Manager Awards app.

Originally built simply to collect votes, it has already evolved into something much bigger: a permanent archive celebrating the achievements of Top 100 managers throughout the history of the gameworld.

Alongside this season’s voting, we’ve added three major new sections.

🏛 Hall of Fame

Every podium finish from every awards ceremony is now preserved in one place.

Browse every category across Seasons 25–27 and instantly see who won gold, silver and bronze each year.

As the seasons roll on, this will become a living history of the Top 100 Awards.

👤 Manager Awards Cabinets

Ever wondered how many podium finishes you’ve achieved?

The new Manager Cabinets page lets every manager view their own awards cabinet, including:

Gold, silver and bronze totals

Every podium finish

Vote totals

Winning percentages

It’s a personal honours cabinet for every manager in the game.

📊 Awards Records

We’ve also begun tracking all-time awards records.

Current record holders include:

🏆 Most career wins

🥈 Most podium finishes

🔥 Highest winning percentage

⚔ Closest ever vote

As more seasons are added, these records will become increasingly competitive.

Looking ahead…

This is only the beginning.

Among the features already being explored are:

Career awards scores and all-time rankings
Manager profile pages combining league history, honours and awards
Awards timelines
Club awards histories
Searchable manager comparisons
“Greatest Managers of All Time” rankings based on career achievements
More historical seasons added to the Hall of Fame
Interactive statistics and visualisations

The aim is simple: to make the Manager Awards not just an annual vote, but a permanent archive celebrating the history of Top 100.

With every new season, the archive becomes richer, rivalries become deeper, and every vote becomes another piece of gameworld history.

The voting app has gone from being a useful tool for collecting votes into a genuine historical archive that managers will want to revisit long after the polls have closed. It complements the predictions, reviews and statistics already on the site, and feels like another step towards documenting the complete history of the Top 100 community.

LIBRAS-BOAS CLAIMS TREBLE CROWN AS TOP 100 HONOURS OUTSTANDING SEASON 25 ACHIEVERS

Thu, 04 Sep 2025 10:36:11 +0100

Luis André leads dominant display in Manager of Season awards as David Marsden’s transformation earns recognition

The votes have been counted and the verdicts are in from Season 25’s Manager of the Season awards, with Luis André Libras-Boas of Hellas Verona claiming the Overall Manager crown in emphatic fashion after delivering the campaign’s only treble triumph.

OVERALL SUPREMACY

Libras-Boas swept to victory in the Overall category with a commanding 59% of the vote (36 from 61 cast), his treble haul of Division 1, SMFA Champions Cup, and Charity Shield proving decisive in what many considered the most competitive season in Top 100 history. The Portuguese tactician’s achievement in successfully defending his Division 1 crown whilst conquering Europe made him the standout candidate.

David Marsden of Hamburger SV claimed a respectable second place with 23% (14 votes), his extraordinary transformation from 17th-placed predictions to Division 2 champions earning widespread admiration. The Englishman’s +16 VA improvement represented the highest value addition across all divisions.

Adam of Barcelona (8.2%) rounded out the podium, his multi-generational mastery evident in capturing both World Club Cup and Youth Cup honours, whilst Scott Mckenzie (6.6%) and simon thomas (3.3%) completed the quintet of nominees.

DIVISIONAL DOMINANCE

The divisional categories showcased the depth of managerial excellence across the Top 100 pyramid:

Division 1

André Libras-Boas collected another emphatic victory with 64.5% of votes (40 from 62), underlining his complete dominance of the top flight. Scott Mckenzie’s remarkable statistical transformation from 15th prediction to 4th place finish earned him 17.7% recognition, ahead of Adam (9.7%) and Bojan H (8.1%).

Division 2

Delivered the most one-sided result of the night, with David Marsden claiming an extraordinary 96.8% of the vote (61 from 63). His championship triumph from such lowly expectations represented arguably the season’s greatest individual achievement, leaving Dave Oz Osborne’s play-off heroics with Málaga trailing with just 3.2%.

Division 3

Proved similarly decisive for Chris Meida of CSKA Moskva, who secured 81% of votes after combining league success with Youth Shield glory. Jamie ᚺ’s tactical excellence with FC Augsburg earned 15.9%, whilst Mike Scallotti’s remarkable underdog promotion story with Everton collected 3.2%.

Division 4

Provided the evening’s most competitive contest, with Stuart Monteith of Montpellier HSC edging victory with 46% following his automatic promotion charge from 14th predictions. Chris Union’s title triumph with Boca Juniors earned 22.2%, ahead of Fredrik Johansson (19%) and the statistically exceptional ruts66 (12.7%).

Division 5

Marc Ques of FK Partizan claimed 47.6% recognition for his clear championship victory, narrowly ahead of Bruno Neto^^'s exceptional statistical display with Olympique Lyonnais (31.7%). Wayne Bullough’s individual overperformance with Athletic Club rounded out the leading trio with 17.5%.

CUP COMPETITION EXCELLENCE

The Cup Competition Excellence category delivered a thrilling three-way battle, with Adam’s multi-competition mastery ultimately prevailing with 55.6% of votes. His World Club Cup and Youth Cup double demonstrated exceptional squad depth and tactical versatility across multiple age groups.

André Libras-Boas and simon thomas deadlocked on 22.2% apiece, the former’s SMFA Champions Cup triumph complementing his league success, whilst the latter’s Top 100 Cup victory from 20th predictions to 12th finish exemplified the great escape narrative that defined much of Season 25.

STATISTICAL STANDOUTS

The voting data revealed fascinating insights into the community’s priorities:

Transformation narratives proved particularly popular, with managers exceeding predictions by significant margins earning substantial recognition
Value addition statistics heavily influenced voting patterns
Trophy collection remained the ultimate arbiter of excellence
438 votes cast across seven categories demonstrated continued Top 100 community engagement

FINAL THOUGHTS

Season 25 will be remembered as the campaign where defensive champions thrived alongside transformative underdogs. Libras-Boas’s treble represents the pinnacle of sustained excellence, whilst Marsden’s Division 2 heroics epitomise the unpredictable beauty that makes the Top 100 game world so compelling.

As attention turns to Season 26, these award winners have set the benchmark for what constitutes managerial excellence in the modern era. The voting has spoken, and the message is clear: consistency, transformation, and silverware remain the holy trinity of Top 100 success.

Please take a minute to vote here for your manager of the season in each division, and then your overall Top 100 manager.

Where I have put 'best PVA' (basically means most improved and/or overachieving team), it's my personal guess based on Malcolm's Stats at the start of the season. Malcolm may say different when he publishes his end of season reviews.

Manager of the Season Winners S13

Tue, 03 Nov 2020 23:01:33 +0100

D5 Manager of the Season

I want to say thank you to all previous Dinamo managers. Also thanks to all who decide to give me a vote and decide me to be D5 manager of the season. Will continue hard next season to make best possible result. Really happy with this team and opportunity to be their manager. Wish all the best to all managers in new season.

The Godfather, D5 Manager of the Season S13

D4 Manager of the Season

I would like to thank all the managers who voted for me huge success at Bremen big transformation with the squad see us reach Division 3 hoping for the success to continue next season.
Paddy D, D4 Manager of the Season S13

D3 Manager of the Season

I'd just like to say thanks to everyone, this season has been fantastic and hopefully we can continue to progress in div 2 and have another great season . Thanks again.
Dale Bowers, D3 Manager of the Season S13

D2 Manager of the Season

After some success with Roma and a stable side it was a little risky to drop a Division but I really felt with a few tweaks I could get them back in the Top Level.

Key signings in the keeper and centre back also adding Werner in the latter stages. I like to try have cover for all positions, I am lacking in CM and CB but I concentrated on the league rather than cups and at one point I thought I may make the 100 points.

We twice broke most win on the run and record and most unbeaten games, it’s a really tough league and you could get stuck in there and after two season Arsenal looked like they were lacking consistency.

I tried to get a settled squad early doors and stuck to the game plan. Really pleased to go up as champions against some really top managers in the Division and looking forward to being back in the top flight.
Heath Brown, D2 Manager of the Season S13

D1 Manager of the Season

Since I’ve joined this league I’ve strived to be the best manager in here and from the start it was a struggle to be champions even though at some points over the years we have on paper had a very strong squad but for some reason it just never clicked.......

But this season we have managed to turn draws into wins, a few in the last 10 mins ....and it has helped having a little bit of Back up To Fill in for those Unexpected injuries ......
James Mckenzie, D1 Manager of the Season S13

Top 100 Manager of the Season

But overall I want to thank all the guys in here for the competition, it’s a hard group of guys who are trying to break the cycle up top in div 1 but it takes a lot of sacrifice of top talents to get that winning formula.....

I also want to thank the guys for their effort in running cups and managing everything about the world which is the fairest I’ve ever come across and rules are always adhered to and there’s no qualms if mistakes are made people accept their punishment....

I know Scott Will be desperate to get his crown back and I will learn from his mistake this term of the super cup as he lost his first two league games through playing a full team.....

Let’s see if we can do it again I’ve every confidence we won’t be far away .......I’m glad overall we won the league by a margin now it’s up to the guys in div 1 to hunt me down coz I won’t be relinquishing the title easy .......

So guys let’s see what everyone’s made of this term and good luck to all.

Sun, 07 Jun 2020 11:43:55 +0100

Cheers for the award, commiserations to Josh at Cruzeiro. The only thing I'm interested in for the new season is promotion to Division 3, anything less would be a poor season. If I can get a few more players in I'll be all set to go.
Terry Morrison, Santos manager, D5 Manager of the Season S12

Thanks everyone for voting me! It was a very intensive season with a lot of good teams and close results! OM had a bit more luck and skill at the end! I would like also to thank Mike T for creating this team! It was easy to take over and move forward! We hope we can stay at D3 for S13. Good luck and have fun!
Chris Baggio, Olympique Marseille manager, D4 Manager of the Season S12

As a lifelong fan of Everton it has been a honour for me to manage them in T100. I still have fond memories of my first ever job in T100 at Galatasaray and am happy with the job I did there, but as soon as the vacancy became available at Goodison Park it was impossible for me to ignore. I'd like to thank firstly the 'selection panel' who approved my application 2 seasons ago and gave me the chance to take over at Finch Farm. I'd like to mention the previous manager Mr. Inglis for all the work he did at Everton and I feel he certainly left the squad in very good shape. My first season was painful as a fan, and as a manager. We got off to a very poor start in Division 2 and no matter what I tried we just could not recover and were relegated on the final day of the season. As we didn't finish bottom 3, I escaped the mandatory sacking and explained my vision to the selection panel, who agreed I could be given another season to turn this great club around. This season has been nothing short of amazing. Top of Division 3 for the majority of the season, being confirmed as Champions and then probably even more rewarding is to hear that I'd been voted Manager of the Season for the division by my fellow T100 managers. I really did go back to the drawing board after relegation, tried different formations and tactics until I could find something that worked for us. After a good pre-season thankfully it clicked and we have enjoyed a superb season with Adrien Rabiot recording outstanding ratings/assists/goals which was equally pleasing as I brought him to the club. Already looking forward to next season back in the 2nd tier, although I understand what a tough challenge it will be. COYB - Once a blue, always a blue!
RJ Alston, Everton manager, D3 Manager of the Season S12

It's a great honour to receive this award from my fellow managers. Thank you all. It was a tough season with many great contenders. Thought Nuno Bento would win it. What?! He ain't in D2? He's still kidnapping kids in D4 competing with Ricardo "SuperWings" Ferreira? Oh sorry! Anyway, it was a memorable season. We played fantastic football! Many thanks to my players & staff! This award is the recognition of their commitment & hard work. I'm lucky to be surrounded by these amazing people. And our tifosi. Week in week out, crowding our Bentegodi with their crazy passion that push us to glory! Hope we can take this wave to next season & return all their efforts. Proud to be a gialloblù!
André Libras-Boas, Hellas Verona manager, D2 Manager of the Season S12

It's an absolute honour to receive this award, the fact that my fellow managers have voted for me when there has been great achievements by others is testament to the work we have done and are carrying out at Barcelona. Looking back on our League campaign it was neck and neck for most of the season until the last quarter where we seem to be able to keep up the consistency where others fail. We were able to add the Charity Shield this year and also the SMFA Champions Cup so the players have got to take the credit. We have a style and formation we stick to and the players take the credit as they go out and deliver on the pitch. We added Saido Mane to the squad and he has taken a bit of time to settle into the squad so look out for him next season as I think he will become a vital cog in the formidable front 3 we have. Thanks to all who make Top 100 enjoyable and stay safe.
Scott Mckenzie, Barcelona manager, D1 and Top 100 Manager of the Season S12

Manager of the Season Awards S11

Wed, 08 Jan 2020 22:20:17 +0100

Based on nominations on the Top 100 game world newsfeed, Malcolm's divisional 'PVA winners' (basically, who finished higher than they should have done with the team they had at the start of the season?), and achievements in the game world this season (i.e., titles, promotions, cup wins).

There are SIX polls - one for each division, and one overall vote. You can vote for any one of the nominees, or vote for someone else.

Please only vote once in each category - I've set it up so that it should not easily be possible to vote more than once. Anyone found cheating will face a one month transfer ban.

If you cannot vote at all, please let me know.

D1 Manager of the Season

Scott Mckenzie won his 7th D1 title in 11 seasons, obliterating the opposition in the process. This title also marks the first time any side has won the D1 title three seasons in succession.

Mister TRX followed up last season's promotion with a top 4 finish, PSG's highest ever placing. They also won the Top 100 World Club Cup, beating Chelsea in th final.

Doug Earle also achieved his club's highest ever league placing taking Atletico Madrid to fifth, and also recording the best 'PVA' in D1.

[poll.fm/10487853](https://poll.fm/10487853)

D2 Manager of the Season

Roberto Downinho won his second D2 title with Internacional beating his own personal biggest points total in the process.

Paul Thompson won the playoff final to secure his second consecutive promotion (with two different clubs) to return Valencia to D1 for the first time since S6. He also amassed the Bats' highest ever points tally. All while winning the Top 100 Shield, too!

David Marsden took Hamburger to unprecedented heights with a dramatic final day win to clinch the third automatic promotion place, achieving the division's best 'PVA' in doing so.

[poll.fm/10487866](https://poll.fm/10487866)

D3 Manager of the Season

Dario Saviano maintained his record of improving Levante's league position every season under his stewardship by smashing D3 with a club record 73 points to reach D2 for the first time.

Gav Harmer also totalled his club's highest ever number of points in a season as Chievo reach D2 for the first time. Gav also recorded the division's highest 'PVA'.

Jerod Ramnarine sneaked into the third and final automatic promotion place on the last day of the season to record Gala's highest ever league placing and points total.

[poll.fm/10487867](https://poll.fm/10487867)

D4 Manager of the Season

Nick Justice won the D4 title and returned the Villains to D3 for the first time since S6, and recorded the division's best 'PVA'.

Ignazio Barraco led Udinese to a second consecutive promotion that sees Udinese return to D3 for the first time since S4.

Adam at Lille won automatic promotion on the final day, returning Lille to D3 for the first time since S2.

[poll.fm/10487873](https://poll.fm/10487873)

D5 Manager of the Season

Joao Alves won D5 and recorded the division's best 'PVA' to revive Sporting after three consecutive relegation seasons.

Nuno Bento launched an incredible late season run of form that transformed the youngest and lowest rated squad in the whole of Top 100 from bottom-dwellers to playoff winners. The Baggies secured their highest ever league placing and number of points. Nuno, in his own words, 'created West Brom from nothing' - he sold all 48 players he started with to external clubs, so it really is a truly amazing - nay, unbelievable! - that he and his own genius has overseen such a turnaround while the rest of us have been sleeping.

Greg Owen was the only manager this season to have a plan, and it was a cunning plan at that. Greg's plan from day one was to amass enough points to win promotion - and that's exactly what he did (even if he managed fewer points than he thought he needed)! As the saying goes, fail to plan, and plan to fail! Greg also did amazingly well to reach the final of the Top 100 Youth Cup.

Overall Manager of the Season

In addition to the managers nominated for the divisional awards, Andre Libras-Boas won the Top 100 Cup, beating serial cup winners Juventus in the final. The Cup win provided massive consolation for finishing bottom of the league in their only season in D1.

Frank Hirst won the highly coveted and exclusive to Top 100 Youth Cup, while finishing a highly respectable 10th in D1.

Gursimran Brar won the slightly less coveted but even more exclusive to Top 100 World Club Cup Shield AND Youth Shield. And he signed Sadio Mane, so he must be doing something right!

Au Revoir, Rahul

Tue, 13 Aug 2019 09:50:11 +0100

It's possibly Rahul's final season in Top 100, as he pursues real life commitments instead. So here's a quick tribute to Rahul and all he's brought to Top 100 and Soccer Manager in general - and in particular with his very accurate player ratings predictions.

Rahul's managerial record in Top 100

[googleapps domain="docs" dir="spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSPQPfjrO2okStPiRHR_4xr89a3-axuBJgHeSSLPttSd6L3zBvYxuHN5DDnCT9bK9SUHqyGzcL-L1Gf/pubhtml" query="gid=1428955248&single=true&widget=true&headers=false" /]

Rahul has managed in every division except D4, and won D3 twice - with first club Aston Villa in Season 3, and now with Hertha Berlin.

He moved on to Manchester United after his success with Villa, and took the fallen giants back to D1 at the first attempt, finishing second in D2. After a creditable fifth place in D1, Rahul stepped down to take on the challenge of management in D5 and the Ukraine.

That move didn't really work out, and was followed by a disastrous season in charge of Sampdoria, finishing bottom of D2.

Rahul stepped into the massive boots left by Hertha Hero Mark Stewart, and had two tough seasons culminating in another bottom placed finish in D2.

A mixed bag, in some ways, lots of success in his first seasons with Villa and United, then some seasons of struggle. So it's fitting that Rahul bows out, for the time being at least, with his most successful season to date.

All the best, Rahul, and thanks for all you've done for Top 100 and SM.

Manager of the Season Awards

Tue, 13 Aug 2019 09:01:50 +0100

All awards based on votes cast on the newsfeed and via private messages with the Top 100 manager selection panel.

Division Five

Mike T's Marseille led the way in D5 for much of the season, but they couldn't hold out and let last season's 99th placed club Twente steal their ice cream.

Ignazio Barraco did a sterling job with his exciting Udinese project in finishing third, and dark horse David Inglis brough Rubin Kazan up via a late surge and the playoffs.

But the clear winner for D5 Manager of the Season is Paul Thompson for his Twente transformation.

Division Four

Really only two teams in it, but first a mention for two South American clubs and their managers, who had great seasons and were both on the cusp of fantastic seasons. That is, until disaster struck for both River Plate and Sao Paulo, or rather Dnipro strung together five wins on the bounce to take third place.

To add insult to injury, Spartak stole the playoff place to go up alongside Koln and Stoke City.

Champions Koln finished 99th in the league four seasons ago, so it's been a remarkable rise for them and manager Neil Frankland. But's a tough league and D4 runners-up Stoke also made the semi-finals of the Youth Shield, and the finals of the World Club Shield and Top 100 Cup.

So the D4 Manager of the Season Award goes to ruts66 ...

Division Three

Only really one manager who got the votes in D3. Not Dan Wallace, who did a remarkable job taking Montpellier into D2 with their second consecutive playoff victory. Not Bojan H, who took Basel back to D2 for the first time since Season 3. And not manager of champions Hertha, Rahul, in what could be his final season in Top 100.

For taking relegation candidates Shakhtar Donetsk back to D2 for the first time in seven seasons, D3 Manager of the Season is... Broon!

Division Two

Special mention for Sassuolo gaffer Bob «Groucho» Sal who won the Youth Cup against all the odds. And for Schalke supremo Doc, who won promotion back to D1 via the playoffs in his first season in charge, as did Mister TRX with D2 runner-up PSG. And to Hellas Verona boss Andre Libras-Boas, for his third promotion in four seasons.

But for leading Borussia Dortmund to a runaway championship, D2 Manager of the Season is James Foster.

Division One

Great, if ultimately futile, effort from Jay Jones to keep Internazionale in D1. Brilliant, if predictably unsuccessful, attempt by Sir Stephen Beddows to win D1. Real Madrid are now the only team in Top 100 history to have finished above Bayern Munich twice and not won the title.

Honourable mentions to Paddy D, last season's D2 champions, for pushing hard for the top four for most of the season, to Andy Kelly at Liverpool for a superb third place, and to Doug Earle for turning around Atletico's season and winning the Top 100 Shield.

For finishing as many points above 4th placed Juventus as the Old Lady finished above last placed Manchester United, D1 Manager of the Season is Scott McKenzie of Barcelona!

Top 100 Manager of the Season

Ruts, Broon and Foster all had terrific seasons in their respective divisions (and also in some of the cups in ruts' case), and Thommo turned around Twente in spectacular fashion.

But the Top 100 Manager of the Season for Season 10 is Scott McKenzie for obliterating D1, and notching a record sixth title. Can he become the first manager to win three consecutive D1 titles in Season 11...?

D2 and Overall Top 100 Manager of the Season

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 23:50:32 +0100

I would like to thank my fellow managers for bestowing this honor upon me. They have played a big part in this accomplishment as the sense of community drives me to Top 100 everyday to try to find ways to better my team, so it's all thanks to each and everyone of you. Special shout out to Frank for his exceptional season.
Gursimran Brar

I would just like to congratulate both Frank and Guri on the jobs they have done with their respective teams.
Scott Mckenzie

Special mention to Guri for winning the overall manager award and I look forward to locking horns with him next season.
Frank Hirst

D1 Manager of the Season

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 23:50:29 +0100

It’s great to see my achievements noticed. 6th in our 1st season in the top flight was amazing and exceeded our own goal of a top half finish. I know next season is going to be tough, but we will aim to better ourselves again next season and aim to crack that top 4! Our squad has come on so much since 1st taking over 9 seasons ago with a strong 11 and some fantastic young players coming through, who will keep Genoa as one of the elite for years to come. So thank you to all those who voted.
Frank Hirst

D3 Manager of the Season

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 23:49:54 +0100

First of all wow very surprised and honoured. It's a privilege to be voted manager of the season for division 3 by my fellow managers.
Nathan Prince

D4 Manager of the Season

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 23:49:51 +0100

Thanks to all those who voted for me. I hope Celta continue moving from strength to strength. Arnautovic was my early stand out player but it really was a team effort...
Mister TRX

D5 Manager of the Season

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 23:49:45 +0100

Just happy to finally taste success in T100 and looking forward to division 4 with River. Plenty of hard work went in to transform the club who finished 100 out of 100 last season, completely new squad and we worked hard for our title.

Division 3 Manager of the Season 3rd Place: Sir Walter Smith (CSKA Moscow) 4% 2nd Place: michael h (Ajax) 35% 1st Place: rab kennedy (Basel) 47%

The Division 3 Title race also went down to the wire, with 1 game to go 3rd placed Ajax leapfrogged Ajax & Basel to snatch the title. The real success story of Division 3 was Rab Kennedy of Basel who was supposed to be fighting for his life, but managed to finish 1 point off the top and has sicne gone on to take the vacant post at Sevilla.

Division 3 Young Player of the Season

3rd Place: Abdul Rahman BABA (Basel) 26% 2nd Place: Max MEYER (CSKA Moscow) 33% 1st Place: Naby KEÏTA (Sassuolo) 35%

Although Sassuolo finished in the relegation places, Naby Keita was a shining light in their side, but will be hoping for more playing time back in Division 4 next season.

Division 3 Player of the Season

3rd Place: Luuk DE JONG (PSV) 15% 2nd Place: Zoran TOŠIĆ (Basel) 31% 1st Place: Emmanuel EMENIKE (CSKA Moscow/Aston Villa) 32%

Emenike started the season in fantastic form with 5 TOTW apps in the first 9 games of the season, but was transferred to Aston Villa in the 2nd half of the season where he took a little time to settle in and just missed out on promotion via the playoffs with Villa. Emenike will be playing for his 3rd Division 3 club in a few months as he will be playing for relegated Athletic Bilbao next season.

Fri, 27 May 2016 16:27:00 +0100

Below are the Awards for Division 4 Players & Managers…

Division 4 Manager of the Season 3rd Place: Frank Hirst (Genoa) 19% 2nd Place: Mike Scallotti (Southampton) 30% 1st Place: Robérto Downinho (Internacional) 32%

The race for promotion from Division 4 went right to the final game of the Season with Malaga & Greg Billington just missing out. Southampton won the Division as predicted and Genoa finished a couple of places higher than expected. But the other achiever of the Season was Roberto Downinho & Internacional who were predicted to flirt with relegation, but instead pinched the final automatic playoff place on goal difference.

Division 4 Young Player of the Season

3rd Place: Jonny CASTRO (Celta Vigo) 13% 2nd Place: Samu CASTILLEJO (Genoa) 26% 1st Place: James WARD-PROWSE (Southampton) 60%

James Ward-Prowse was an inspiration to title winning Southampton, playing in 30 games and chipping in with 5 goals & 5 assists from Midfield, he could be a key player for the Saints for many a season to come.

Division 4 Player of the Season

2nd Place: Laurent DEPOITRE (Hellas Verona) 8% 2nd Place: Sadio MANÉ (Southampton) 8% 1st Place: Ciro IMMOBILE (Genoa) 66%

Ciro Immobile scored 17 goals and got 8 assists in his 32 games for Genoa, before being transferred to CSKA Moscow in what most will have seen as a brave move from the Genoa boss.

Below are the Awards for Division 1 Players & Managers…

Division 1 Manager of the Season

3rd Place: Gursimran Brar (Bayern Munich) 9% 2nd Place: André Guerra (Porto) 32% 1st Place: scott mckenzie (Barcelona) 50%

Nobody can really argue with the winner of this award with Scott Mckenzie losing only 1 league game all season and winning such a strong division by 10 points. Although, Andre far exceeded expectations, after winning the Division 2 playoff last season, Porto finished just 5 points off the top 4.

Division 1 Young Player of the Season

3rd Place: Memphis DEPAY (Manchester United) 14% 3rd Place: José GIMÉNEZ (Atletico Madrid) 14% 2nd Place: Aymeric LAPORTE (Manchester United) 16% 1st Place: Hakan ÇALHANOĞLU (Bayer Leverkusen) 39%

Calhanoglu terrorised defences in the league and youth cup this season pitching in with 10 league goals and 5 assists and was probably a big reason for the German sides survival.

Division 1 Player of the Season

2nd Place: Kevin DE BRUYNE (Barcelona) 3% 2nd Place: Sergio RAMOS (Real Madrid) 3% 2nd Place: Arjen ROBBEN (Lazio) 3% 1st Place: Lionel MESSI (Barcelona) 84%

Lional Messi was a phenom this season scoring 34 goals, getting 20 assists and getting 20 TOTW apps in his 32 league games. Division 1 defender’s are really going to have to up their game to stop another season like this.

Division 5 Player & Manager Awards

Fri, 27 May 2016 16:13:00 +0100

For the last 5 days, the Managers of Top100 have been voting for their Players & Managers of the Season. With 80 out of the 100 managers casting a vote it was a real success.

Below are the End of Season Awards for Division 5… Division 5 Manager of the Season 3rd Place: Zaid Griffin (Feyenoord) 15% 2nd Place: Andrew Kelly (Villarreal) 40% 1st Place: feargal a hickey (VFB Stuttgart) 43%

Feargal just edges Andrew to the Division 5 MOTY even with Andrew winning the league by 11 points, the side that Feargal took over at the start of the season was 1 that most thought would be fighting relegation. A Cup win & a promotion later and VFB will not only be playing in Division 4 next Season, but will also have a shot in Europe. Andrew’s Villarreal side got back to Division 4 in style, winning the league by 11 points alongside Zaid’s Feyenoord side who were also relegated last season.

Division 5 Young Player of the Season 3rd Place: Joshua KIMMICH (Anderlecht) 13% 3rd Place: Sven VAN BEEK (Feyenoord) 13% 2nd Place: Ricardo KISHNA (Feyenoord) 25% 1st Place: Timo PLATTEL (FC Twente) 27%

Timo Plattel was a revelation in goal for FC Twente, at the start of the season when Twente were shipping goals at a rate of knots, Platell was still coming up with MOM awards and as such was picked in the Division 5 TOTW on 5 occasions. Plattel has since signed for Espanyol who will be playing Division 5 football themselves next season.

Division 5 Player of the Season

2nd Place: Gerard MORENO (Villarreal) 8% 2nd Place: Víctor RUÍZ (Villarreal) 8% 1st Place: Troy DEENEY (Feyenoord) 60%

Troy Deeney grabbed many a headline this season as he waded in with 21 goals and 10 assists being ever present and picking up the Division 5 golden boot along with the Player of the Season Award. Zaid will be hoping the Troy’s goals will help again in Division 4 next Season.

Manager of the Season

Thu, 07 Jan 2016 12:17:00 +0100

A big thank you to everyone for a very successful first Season in Top100 and an even better Season 2.

The results for Manager of the Season for each of the 5 Divisions is as follows...

In joint 2nd place for Division 5 Manager of the Season are 2 managers (both with 13%) that both got promoted in a very tight challenge for the Title with Montpellier's Rob Ryan, who has since taken over at Division 2 playoff runners up, Napoli and Béla Guttmann of AZ, who's inspirational signing of Dirk Kuyt was a big help in getting them across the line. The winner with 63% of the vote was eventual Division 5 Winners, son of pluto of Dnipro.

Division 4's 3rd placed Manager of the Season was Frank Hirst of Genoa with 21%, losing out in the Cup final to Spurs and losing out to eventual playoff winners, Bordeaux in the playoffs. 2nd place was Division 4 Champions Besiktas and their coach David Inglis with 25% and the winner was Bob Groucho of Sassuolo, although he didn't win the league, he gained promotion and probably played the best football as was seen by Magnanelli & Berardi winning the Division 4 player awards.

Division 3 saw 3 managers tie in 3rd place with Robérto Downinho of Internacional, although he got relegated, he got the Brazilians to a cup final against Real Madrid.
