Villa defender Hutton memorably picked up the ball 10 yards into his own half in the crunch clash against Blues, before embarking on a stunning run, culminating in a precise left-footed finish in the 4-2 win last month.

Meanwhile, Ginnelly smashed in a 20-yard thunderbolt against Sunderland in Walsall’s 2-2 draw. Fans can vote for their favourite at skysports.com
