Eurosport’s new series ‘The Debate’ saw four writers make a case for four different players before having their arguments picked apart in new vodcast and podcast ‘Game of Opinions’.
Buendia (36%) took the spoils, with a tight finish between second-placed Vicente Guaita (23.5%) and third-placed Conor Hourihane (23%) completing the podium. Lucas Moura was quickly discounted in the discussion and so was not eligible. Sorry, Lucas. Sorry, Ben.

THE ARGUMENTS

  • Carrie Dunn made the case for Aston Villa's Conor Hourihane - Claiming "he can bring vital goals and the vital element of aggression". Read her views here.
  • Marcus Foley went with Norwich City's Emi Buendia - Pointing out that "he's fourth in the league for assists". Read his views here.
  • Pete Sharland proposed Crystal Palace's Vicente Guaita - "The best of the bunch" of Premier League goalkeepers, Sharland thought. Read his views here.
  • Ben Snowball went off piste and went with a big name, Lucas Moura - He explained he "has done more for Spurs than Harry Kane and Heung-min Son in terms of trying to deliver a trophy". Read his views here.
