Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney received his second individual award this season after being voted the English Football Writers' Association (FWA) player of the year.
The 24-year-old England international earned more than 80 percent of the votes, with Chelsea striker Didier Drogba and Man City forward Carlos Tevez falling far behind to sit second and third in the FWA poll.
FWA chairman Steve Bates believed Rooney's dominance in the voting reflected the huge impact he has had for the "Red Devils" after Cristiano Ronaldos left for Real Madrid.
Rooney, who has scored 34 goals this season, was also named player of the year by the Professional Footballers' Association on Sunday.
