#4 Seriton Fernandes (FC Goa)
A lot of football pundits expected a fierce battle between Seriton Fernandes and Nirmal Chhetri in the right-back role for FC Goa once the season began. However, the 25-year-old Goan native ensured that the former Northeast United FC defender played only 8 minutes in the tournament.
Seriton is a very skilful and composed full-back when going in the overlap. A total of 28 crosses in 18 matches proves his worth; he also has 2 assists to his name. As a team, FC Goa has had the most number of successful passes in the league and Seriton played an instrumental part in it. A total of 1030 touches and 727 passes with an accuracy of 78.54% exemplifies his work rate.
A characteristic trait of the wing-back is to track back in time and perform his defensive duties with equal effectiveness. Seriton doesn't show any complacency in the department. His 76 tackles, 21 interceptions, 43 clearances, and 30 blocks being a testament to it.
