Who was your Player of the Month for September?

Gloukh, Nene, Gourna-Douath or Blank

After some initial autumn blues, our Red Bulls progressed as September went on, making the UNIQA ÖFB Cup last 16 and moving within touching distance of the top of the ADMIRAL Bundesliga (with games in hand). A 2-0 win over Austria Vienna saw Pep Lijnders's charges end September with some important confidence in stock ahead of the challenges to come. There were four players who shone above the rest in September, and you can vote for your favoured winner below.

Oscar Gloukh

Oscar is without doubt the creative heart and soul of our side and played every minute during the month apart from our cup game. The Israeli underscored his credentials with a match-winning brace in the final match of the month against Austria Vienna but had already shown in the previous matches just how many strings he can pull in our side.

Dorgeles Nene

Could Nene take the Player of the Month crown? He capped our super start at Rapid Vienna, injected impetus into our attacking play at WSG Tirol and won our early penalty against Austria. He had the joint-most goal involvements in September with Gloukh.

Lucas Gourna-Douath

He had a big part in our early opener in the UNIQA ÖFB Cup match against Wiener Viktoria, and while the ÖFB might have awarded the goal to Petar Ratkov, there is no doubting the positive impression Lucas has made in September. Against WSG he hit the most passes in the final third and won more challenges than anyone else on our side. He also led the way against SK Rapid Vienna with pass completion.

Hendry Blank

The youngster really made a spot in the back four his own - with him in the side, our boys have not conceded in domestic football! He had the joint-most successful challenges against Tirol with Lucas and won the ball ten times against Austria - more than anyone else! The cherry on the top came with his impressive first press conference appearance before we faced the Viennese.

You decide! Who is your Player of the Month for September?
