The awards just keep coming for Argyle goalkeeper Mike Cooper, who has been named in the EFL EA Sports FIFA 22 Team of the Season.

Having been crowned the club’s Player of the Year, winning the league’s Golden Glove and being included in the Sky Bet League One Team of the Season, it further underlines just how impressive Mike has been this year.

He played every minute of the Greens’ Sky Bet League One campaign, keeping 18 clean sheets and topping the ranks for saves in the division.

The 22-year-old went past the 100-appearance mark for Argyle this season, having started the last 92 consecutive league matches.

The EFL EA Sports FIFA 22 Team of the Season sees the best players from all three leagues - Sky Bet Championship, Sky Bet League One and Sky Bet League Two – selected and Mike is the only goalkeeper to make the grade.

Mike is one of five players to be selected from the third tier, alongside Barry Bannan, Daniel Barlaser, Will Keane and Scott Twine.
