It was not Ghana twitter or Ghana facebook if you did not see "Thomas Abbey" typed somewhere on your phone or tablet while you scrolled your timeline on Sunday afternoon.
The Hearts midfielder had just produced an outstanding piece of play to confirm 3 points for Hearts of Oak after a few nervy moments in their win over Tema Youth.
The left footed player who has undergone several transformation in his Hearts career has established himself as a household name in the league and a "god" as his compatriot Samudeen Ibrahim described him.
Abbey was predominantly a winger under Nebjosa Vucecevic and David Duncan but was prefered to as a left back under the orders of Sergio Traguil last season.
In pre-season, coach Henry Wellington deployed him as the number 10, hovering between the lines to cause havoc.He grabbed a couple of goals in that role during the off season and he has continued with that rich vein of form poppig up at the right place at the right time in the league.
Under Frank Nuttall, he began as a winger but a change in shape to a back 3 has not hampered his form as he has been deployed as part of the front 3 in the Scots 3-4-3 formation.
Be it out wide or central, Abbey has excelled scoring 12 goals with only 1 coming from the spot.
It is set to be a photo finish for the goal king race with former Kotoko striker Amed Toure and Dwarfs attacker Nicholas Gyan in the mix for the prestigious awars,
