There was an overwhelming outpouring of support for front-runner Odion Ighalo, who appears a man on a mission at modest Watford. No one has scored more goals in England in 2015, a fact not lost on the public.

@GoalcomNigeria It's crystal clear. Odion Ighalo @ighalojude is the best of them all #GoalNGChat

#GoalNPOTY. I vote for Ighalo. He'z been exeptional. Transfering champ side form to top isn't easy. #GoalNGChat.

@goalcomnigeria I think Odion Igahlo should be crowned the #GoalNPOTY he has scored lots of important for Watford. #GoalNGChat

There was however one very salient caveat, amidst the love-in...

Hmmm. Shouldn't it count against him that he's only played half the year in a top-flight league? #GoalNGChat https://t.co/zVrgKKD9JT

The inclusion of Fifa U-17 World Cup Golden Boot winner Victor Osimhen raised a few eyebrows...

Victor Osimhen in #GoalNPOTY 10-man shortlist?... Haahaha... You gotta be kidding me #GoalNGChat

...but his prospects appear as bright as any other member of the shortlist, apparently!

@GoalcomNigeria I tink I will go for Victor Osimhen in #GoalNPOTY he score some fantastic goals at d U17 world cup #GoalNGChat

There was some acknowledgement of CSKA hitman Ahmed Musa, who is enjoying perhaps his finest individual year at club level, and has stepped into the void left by Vincent Enyeama in the national team.

The contributions of Enyimba defender Chinedu Udoji to the club's seventh league title did not go unnoticed either.
