Bruno Fernandes is currently in scorching form, having just provided two assists in a home victory over the "Aston Villa" 3-1 in the latest Premier League match. This brought his total assists to 16, surpassing the club legend Sir David Beckham's record of 15 assists set in the 1999-2000 season.

He has maintained that level of performance almost throughout, which sets him apart from other players. Many previous winners of this award did not win the league title. Right now, he is clearly the most deserving candidate."
