Although it has spiralled into a matter of fierce contention whether David Clifford should be the 2023 Footballer of the Year, one thing is not. Some Friday in late October he will make his way to the podium of the Convention Centre in Dublin and receive a fifth All Star in six seasons.
He will still be just 24 years of age.
