PFA Premier League Team of the Year.

dreamers75

Petr Cech,
Seamus Coleman, Vincent Kompany, Gary Cahill, Luke Shaw,
Adam Lallana, Yaya Toure, Steven Gerrard, Eden Hazard,
Luis Suarez & Daniel Sturridge

Decent team Ramsey for Gerrard if he didnt get injured.

Terry for Kompany.
Azpilicueta for Shaw
De Gea or Marshall for Cech.

djPSB

Kompany very lucky to get a place.

Paully D

Kompany in and no Terry. :pac:

Corholio

Marshall for Cech is the only glaring one really. I think either Shaw or Azpilicueta could have been there, throw up really.

Terry for Kompany could be argued too.

Ramsey for Gerrard surely up for debate too? Both with a good half season.

Johner

Terry should definitely be in it.

Definitely think Kompany is lucky to be in. Terry, Jagielka, Skrtel, to name a few, could all be in ahead of him.

Agent Coulson

Lallana has now made the team of the year in the top three leagues.

That's some achievement.

Exactly this, and Henderson/Ramsey for Gerrard.

Well done Seamus Coleman.

Follows a long line of Irish full backs, Gary Kelly, Steve Finnan, Carr, Irwin etc

I think with Gerrard constantly playing gives him the edge, an injury that completely rules you out for months is hard to dismiss really, as good as Ramsey was.

Hulk Hands

I think how dominant Aguero was earlier in the year has been forgotten with his injuries

MaroonAndGreen

Marshall, Terry, Azpilicueta unlucky to miss out.

As are Henderson, Silva, Ramseyin the midfield I think.

But of course its a toss up between everyone

Super-Rush

It could have been an Everton back 5. Terry is very unlucky not to be there.

I can think of a lot of players i'd put in before Gerrard.

Who are the contenders for Central Midfield though?

Ramsey, Schneiderlin, Henderson, Barkley? Not sure they have done enough to get in it. Gerrard though is captaining the league leaders at the moment and (although I know they were nearly all penalties) has scored vital goals.

Vito Corleone

Henderson should have been in instead of Gerrard IMO.

When was the last time Man Utd didn't have a player in this?

extra gravy

Would have Speroni in there before Marshall as he's played a big part in his team's revival.

Or any current Champions for that matter

It's amazing there's always 1 or 2 average keepers who people mention as being deserving of being in the teams of the season. Even though they've let in tonnes of goals and rarely keep any clean sheets. They only look good because they have so many shots taken on them every game. The keepers at teams in the top quarter of teams are always the best but that doesn't show up on MotD much. Cech is deserving enough I guess though I'd give it to De Gea in a biased turn. Hart has looked good whenever I've seen him recently too, done well to come back after a shaky period.

Amazing how Seamus Coleman was completely overlooked by Trap

Kirby

It's a pretty good squad with a couple of errors in my book. Delighted to see Coleman there. We have a gem there folks and it's great that everyone is seeing it.

De Gea has been really good this year. I know United are way down the league but its based on individual performances....or at least it should be. De Gea over Cech this season. Cech was the wrong choice. I'd have had Lloris over Cech this year too. He's made some truly brilliant saves.

Kompany is there on reputation alone. He has been decidedly average. He has made way more mistakes than Terry. I cant really get my head around that one.

The Gerrard/Ramsey one is a toss up. I can understand both points of view. If Ramsey had stayed fit, it might be a different story but he didn't and that's that. Gerrard's had a good year. It makes sense.

I think its enlightening that there are no United or Arsenal players in there....but atleast Arsenal's guys got close. Ramsey for one. Ozil had a great start too. Their back 5 have looked solid enough when all fit. But apart from De Gea, nobody in a United shirt has got anywhere near the best 11.

Omackeral

As I've said before, Seamus Coleman signed for Everton for £60,000. From that price tag to being named in the PFA Team of the Year. Surely one of the best bargains of all time. Wonder what he's worth now?

Lucas Hood

John Terry should really be in there.

Was a regular starter in the last campaign under Trapp?

Should have been a regular in the campaign before that.

Truly amazing really. Such an abject season of failure for them given the players at their disposal.

Its not even the not having a player in the team of the year. Its that you could only begin to make a case for a single player De Gea. A case for any other player would be rightly laughed out of it.

Sheepy99

Not disagreeing or anything but I really don't understand where this Marshall talk is coming from . . . .

Rhys Essien

It would be interesting to know what Coleman's valuation is right now.Surely nothing less than £20 million???

Its a great endorsment too for the league of Ireland that the best right back in England was a LOI man.

It would be great if Sligo Rovers have a sell on clause because that day might not be far away.

kevinroche3333

Who would have been in second place in the poll for each position?
I guess the likes of Terry were not too far away, but who would be RB after Coleman? CB along with Terry? RM instead of Lallana?
Second string XI would be interesting to pick and compare choices.

1990. Liverpool won the league that year...

Rhys Essien

Just thought,Coleman would be the third ex-LOI man to be in the PFA team of the year after Paul McGrath and Roy Keane.

I think Kevin Doyle got a PFA Championship team of the year.

Alfred Borden

Mine
De Gea;Coleman, Terry, Koscielny, Azpilicueta, Gerrard, Ramsey, Toure, Lallana, Suarez, Hazard.

I would say around £15m (which would be around 18m Euro). Not many fullbacks that I can remember commanding £20m.

Glen Johnson was bought by Liverpool few years ago for over 20 million euros
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2009/jun/16/glen-johnson-liverpool-portsmouth-chelsea

Recently Arsenal signed Monreal for 10 million euros.

Coleman is not 26 until October, wouldnt command the wages of some more high profile wing backs, and in an age where fullbacks in top teams need to be good offensively Everton would be mad to sell for less than 15million pounds imo

I agree. I don't see him leaving, really. Similar to Baines scenario.

Np Azpilicueta is a joke, maybe terry too.

Azp has been top class for sure but he didnt start the season as first choice.
He only played 4 league games before December: http://www.chelsea-mad.co.uk/chelsea/player/season_145/cesar_azpilicueta_41328/index.shtml

Dont understand how Terry was left out for Kompany, maybe players voting for personalities comes into it too. Kompany seems very likeable whereas Terry has history but on the pitch this season he has been excellent.

Green Giant

I'd have gone with Marshall; Coleman, Terry, Cahill, Shaw; Lallana, Gerrard, Toure, Hazard; Suarez, Sturridge. Boring 4-4-2 but I reckon all 4 MFs deserve a place.

Honourable mentions for Cech, Azpilicueta, Sterling, Ramsey and Rodriguez

Manzoor14

Decent looking team. Only change i'd make is Koscielny for Kompany and possibly Speroni for Cech.

16 of Arsenal's 41 goals conceded were when Koscielny wasn't on the pitch! (subbed/sent off 4 times and missed 6 games with injury/suspension)
