A closer look at the Football League’s Team of the Season

Goalkeeper

Adam Smith ( Town)

Defenders

Bruno (Brighton & Hove Albion)

The 35-year-old has been a calming influence in Brighton's back line this season as the Seagulls look to gain automatic promotion. Bruno netted his first goal of the season over the weekend, crashing home an effort in the 5-0 demolition of Fulham.

George Friend ()

Friend is another defender who has helped his side move towards the summit of the Championship table. Middlesbrough have conceded the fewest Championship goals this season (27) and that is in no small part down to the 28-year-old's sterling performances.

Craig Morgan ( Athletic)

The Wigan captain has helped the League One leaders to a brilliant 15 clean sheets this season. The former Rotherham man has also contributed at the other end of the pitch, chipping in with two goals.

Joey Barton (Burnley)

The 33-year-old has really impressed after joining the Clarets on a free transfer over the summer. Barton has played 36 games this season and has consistently been a driving force in midfield as Burnley look to make an immediate return to the Premier League.

Strikers

Kemar Roofe ()

After joining the club over the summer, Roofe has netted 23 goals to help The U's establish themselves in the automatic promotion places. This superb form helped the striker win the Player of the Year award last night.

The 24-year-old striker joined Swindon in the summer on a free transfer after being released by and has become an instant hit at The County Ground. Ajose has scored 22 league goals to make him League One's top goalscorer and has currently netted nine goals in his last ten games.
