ah ok, there's too many to keep track of, so the list of 6 nominations was done by players as well?

Yes mate. Votes are taken in Febuary I believe. You would think in this day and age it could be done a bit later.

Tony Hibbert's 3rd leg · April 20, 2017

Infuriates me that Cahill can be rated at all. Has one good game in about 20.

Yeah I'd heard about the February this. It's also done "of the year" rather than the season which confuses people too

Not sure on that tbh, think it is season and not year. An old pro, albeit lower league, told me about it a few years ago.

I know it's on the season, but if you look at my first post in the thread, the link for bbc says year, but it actually means season.

Would have Alonso over Danny Rose.

Also think Mane should definitely be there, fantastic player.

Why is Gueye not at least in their list of options for midfield?

I wouldn't put him in personally but if Joe Allen is an option....

Anybody know when was the last time we had a player in the Team of the Year?

oh, and this would be mine...

I didn't even know that Walker was a starter. Cahill over Auderweirld HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA. DeGea had a subpar season and is there on rep alone.

Honestly think Luiz has been better than Kante this year (not that Kante doesn't deserve to be on a PFA 11 or on a shortlist for POY). I used to think that Luiz was a clown.

I could understand Mane, he's been better than Coutino when available, Sanchez is a headcase right now, Siggy has fallen back to earth a bit

Gutted they've limited the "pick your own Team of the Year" tool to only include good players. I was going to start a PFA Crap Team of the Year thread and see what kind of tragic XIs we could have assembled.

Anyway I went with this:
