PFA Player of the Year Nominees

Vidic
Ferdinand
Giggs
Van der Sar
Ronaldo
Gerrard




I think the Premier League's footballers are collectively taking the piss.

Young Player of the Year nominees are a bit more sensible:

Evans
Rafael
Agbonlahor
Ashley Young
Ireland
Aaron Lennon

Upon reflection, one factor that may explain that list is the fact that voting was probably done in late Feb/early March, when Man. Utd. were in the middle of their amazing streak and looking unbeatable.

What? Why are Evans and who? In there? Where is Bassong?

Manchester United is the premiere league

Ireland should win the young players one.

If robinho is worth £30m then Ireland is worth £40m easy.

Evans has started 10 games this season(and is nothing special) and Rafael has started 9. Fucking embarrassing.

I'm with you on Bassong too, but I expect Ireland to have the award wrapped up.

And whilst we're blowing the trumpet for players from our own club, where the fuck is Alex Song?!?!

Gerrard and Ferdinand are good picks.

We have people everywhere.

I would be embarrassed about this if i was you.

1/3 success rate isnt too bad

Evans my arse, he has been absolutely shite.

Ronaldo has been no way near as good as last year and Alonso should be in there.

Lampard should be there, these awards are pointless anyway, the football writers award is slightly more meaningful, but not much.

Ronaldo IS still top scorer I guess

Alonso should be in there. He's been superb this season, but as someone mentioned the list was probably drawn up in Febraury and back then, Utd looked certs for the title.

United haven't had an outstanding performance this season, let alone an outstanding player.

Don't talk bollocks, he's had a few bad games like most of our defence. For the rest of the season he was excellent against all types and class of centre forwards.

Agree on Lampard being in there.

What the fuck is this love for Man shit about :lossofbraincells: They haven't dominated a single thing!

Disappointed Xabi ain't a nominee have to say. Shocked Lamps isn't in there.

Ireland for young player of the year

"the rest of the season"? How many games is that? 4? 5? 6?

Depends if we're talking Damien Commolli transfers or POTY picks.

It should be no surprise that footballers, who are generally thick and themselves only play in a maximum of 10% of all the games, are drawn so easily by media hype (e.g. surrounding Vidic this season) and heavily edited TV highlights.

He's played 28 games Newton, so how would it be 4,5 or 6?

& my main gripe was the statement he's been "sh*t".

if he played for Liverpool you'd be pissing yourself at his inclusion. He's been found out in these last few games, for me he'll never be good enough for a big club and he must be thanking the Gods that Vidic and Rio have been injured.

He's played 10 league games. I take it he's played a few milk cup games.

12 league games,
3 FA cup games,
5 league cup games
& 8 European games.

Evans has been pretty good. Dont know what you're all up in arms. Its always like this..bit of big club bias, the votes will have been taken during the time he was just coming in to the side and on form..etc

Ireland should win, but I wouldnt be surprised if it goes to Lennon.

So you're including little cameo's as a substitute. 24 starts this season, 5 in the milk cup which leaves us with 19 starts, and he hasn't even impressed. It's a joke.
