i def agree, don't see how he won this. hope modric wins the spurs player of the year.
― mizzell, Monday, 18 April 2011 02:06 (thirteen years ago) link
aye, not even the best player in a team that probably won't finish top four. usually i think pfa results are decent too. players having more of an eye for the less glamorous work.

What about the team of the season? Would Bale make the XI?
I'd maybe float Cech for Van Der Sar and Baines for Cole. Modric for Wilshire? Parker for Nasri? Has Sagna really been any good? And WHITHER TORRES?!?
PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM OF THE YEAR: Edwin Van Der Sar (Manchester United), Bacary Sagna (Arsenal), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Nemanja Vidic (Manchester United), Vincent Kompany (Manchester City), Nani (Manchester United), Samir Nasri (Arsenal), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal), Gareth Bale (Tottenham), Carlos Tevez (Manchester City), Dimitar Berbatov (Manchester United).

Front six is great, defence has a "can't be arsed" feel to it. Would put Hart in over VDS, Ivanovic or Rafael over Sagna, and yeah Baines over Cole.
― Matt DC, Monday, 18 April 2011 09:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Van Der SarSagna Cahill Kompany Baines Wilshere ModricNasri Silva Nani TevezSubs: Schwarzer, Vidic, Ivanovic, Modric, Adam, Berbatov, Odemwingie or Ba
Subs: Schwarzer, Vidic, Ivanovic, Modric, Adam, Berbatov, Odemwingie or Ba
imo.

I think there's some sort of unwritten rule that the team of the season has to be 442. Tradition and that.
― Number None, Monday, 18 April 2011 11:37 (thirteen years ago) link
ok replace silva with odemwingie.
― popular gay automobile (a hoy hoy), Monday, 18 April 2011 11:41 (thirteen years ago) link
Odemwingie has been great but going for him over Berbatov or even Hernandez is str8 challops.
― Matt DC, Monday, 18 April 2011 11:46 (thirteen years ago) link
no sagna, i like ivanovic meself
Bardsley maybe
Midfield ridic lightweight tbf

2-3-5 for team of the season please xp, I'll have no truck with these modern fads. It's not like they have to play anyone for real anyway - if they did, the official team of the season would get raked through midfield.
― Ismael Klata, Monday, 18 April 2011 11:47 (thirteen years ago) link
Don't rate Sagna, but Ivanovic not all that great this season either and mainly been at CB anyway.
Cech and Terry easily Chelsea's best and most consistent performers. Cech should get POTY.
― isn't house rubbish and Pete W mental (Pete W), Monday, 18 April 2011 11:49 (thirteen years ago) link
Wilshere and Lucas in the middle.
― territory of the magic wand (Chris), Monday, 18 April 2011 12:10 (thirteen years ago) link
This is the OptaStats team. Hmmmm. Not sure about Foster and Clichy, and Essien has been shit. Funny old business.
B.Foster, B.Sagna, J.Terry, N.Vidic, G.Clichy, M.Essien, C.Adam, S.Nasri, Nani, C.Tevez, D.Berbatov. Elite.
― isn't house rubbish and Pete W mental (Pete W), Monday, 18 April 2011 12:36 (thirteen years ago) link
I find opta's thing of ending all their tweets with a one word sentence perpetually amusing. Terse.
― Number None, Monday, 18 April 2011 12:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Clichy has been terrific.
Surprised Essien made it.
― popular gay automobile (a hoy hoy), Monday, 18 April 2011 12:51 (thirteen years ago) link
Has Essien been that bad? I would assume that was based on number of completed passes and successful tackles but the consensus seems to be that Essien is nowhere near the player he was.
― Matt DC, Monday, 18 April 2011 13:38 (thirteen years ago) link
He has been that bad, lots of misplaced passes and very few of his surging runs. A prime advocate among money to be sold.
But apparently Chelsea's win percentage is 20% without him and 63% with, which is a hell of a difference.

jose tried to make off with gareth in the middle of the game rather than waiting to make a bid this summer.

lolling at this, from me, upthread:
Ledley has never impressed outside of one or two performances imo. Not impressing still puts him ahead of a lot of the squad, but I still wouldn't say he's looked like anything to write home about.
changed my opinion totally. have i told you ledley that i love you?

"I don’t think that I’m as good a player as people say I am," Bale said, according to The Mirror.
"That’s what keeps me working hard - because I want to be the player that others say I am."
