He is the third United player to earn Player of the Week honors this year, following Ben Olsen (Week 10) and Luciano Emilio (Week 11).

Addlery also picked up his first career assist, when in the 82nd minute he fed the ball to Fred, who slid through the defense and slotted home his first career goal.
