THERE is no doubting his contribution to the game over the years, but that Ryan Giggs walked away with the PFA Footballer of the Year award smacks of sentimentality. Even more puzzling, is how a player can win such a prestigious award after starting only 12 games for his club.
There are a few players out there who have every right to be slightly annoyed at being overlooked, namely Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Nemanja Vidic. The PFA Team of the Year was also an eyebrow-raiser, with the likes of Patrice Evra and Nicholas Anelka among the selected players.
In a season where there have been very few stand-out performers, my selection below will no doubt provoke widespread debate as well….hopefully anyway.
(4-4-1-1) Manager: David Moyes
Given; Johnson, Vidic, Jagielka, Cole; Lennon, Lampard, Ireland, Gerrard; Cahill; Torres
