SUPER EAGLES forward, Osaze Odemwingie was on Sunday night named the second best player for West Brom in the just concluded season behind Congolese star, Youssouf Mulumbu, who emerged as club's best.
Mulumbu, who featured in the Baggies’ midfielder was rewarded for his hard work all season and was crowned, Player-of-the- Season, at the Gala Awards Dinner, while Nigeria's Osaze was first runners up with the highest goal scorer's award. Chris Brunt was second runners up
The Players' Player of the Season award also went to Mulumbu.
More than 900 people turned out for the event at the ICC, and I think you'd be hard pushed to find anybody who didn't enjoy themselves.
The best performance of the Season was chosen with the Arsenal versus West Brom match, which ended 2-3 in favour of the Baggies, runners up were Everton versus West Brom match, which was 1- 4 for Baggies, and the West Brom versus Liverpool clash, which ended 2-1 respectively.
Goal of the Season went to Simon Cox for Spurs away.
West Brom manager, Roy Hodgson praised his side for their fine run of form and now wants to ensure the bragging rights stay at the Hawthorns, as the end of the season fast approaches.
"I've got to say it has been a wonderful season and we've got a very good chance now of finishing as top dogs in the Birmingham area.
"I think it's a while since that happened and it is an achievement because Birmingham and Aston Villa are big clubs."
But as Albion prepares to reward top scorer Odemwingie with an improved deal, Peace told the guests at the night’s end of season gala dinner that, he was not interested in cashing in on any of Hodgson’s key figures.
And, having dealt with the Albion owner from the other side of the fence, Hodgson has no doubts he will stick to that policy.
