The PSAPP chose last season’s best and fairest at its 42nd celebration. The best Greek player was Fotis Ioannidis. AEK’s Pineda was the best foreigner, while Matias Almeida, who led AEK to the double last year, was the best coach. Tasos Douvikas, top scorer with Utrecht last year, won the award for best Greek football player abroad.

The battle of the coaches was won by Matias Almeida with the Argentine in first place and the trio of Jovanovic and Dabrauskas, the architect of AEK who led the Union to the double, were the leaders of the season.

Alberto Brignoli emerged top of the goalposts after an excellent season with Panathinaikos last year, with the Italian beating Mandas and Paschalakis.
