Readers' Vote: Best New Player For 2011

OK, we're heading into prediction time before the new season starts, so here is the first GGOA Readers' Survey of 2011. Ardija have signed a few new players over the winter: highly-rated midfielder Kota Ueda from Jubilo Iwata, Daigo Watanabe and returning Yosuke Kataoka from Kyoto Sanga and a trio of promising youngsters, in the shape of Kim Yong Gwon, Keigo Higashi and high schoolboy Shintaro Shimizu.

The question is, which one of them is going to be the best for Ardija in 2011? Will Ueda be the midfield leader that Omiya have been missing, or will, um, Kataoka suddenly emerge as a major defensive star? How about Higashi making the step up from J2 in fine style, terrorising top-division defences? What do you think is going to happen? Head over to the box on the right-hand side of this page and vote for your most likely new Squirrels star.
