With 65% of the vote, Joshua King was the runaway winner of April's Michael Matthews Jewellery Player of the Month award.

The striker continued his blistering 2017 form into April, scoring four goals that included the late leveller at Anfield and the winner in the 1-0 victory at Sunderland.

Marc Pugh was second in the Twitter poll, recording 17% of the vote, with Artur Boruc (13%) and Charlie Daniels (5%) also on the shortlist.

There were 1,566 fans who voted in the poll to name a winner, with thanks going out to all who took part.
