Not complaining but would have liked to have seen Phil in that list and bit surprised to see Cancelo. I know he had a good run but also out of team for a while as well as one two cock ups.

Let’s face it, Phil was never going to beat the new Portuguese diver, nor the Egyptian diver, was he?

This is the players voting which makes Cancelo inclusion interesting.

 

[Platt Lane veteran]

After years of our players being underrated, has the penny finally dropped?

Just weird that Phil is one of 6 nominees for Player Of The Year, all the other 5 make team of the year but he doesn't.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Very pleased for stones. He’s proven all his doubters wrong, especially some on here

I'm 90% certain most of the voting takes place in March, at least that's what happens in normal years.


Cancelo would just have been ending his real strong run of form around then.

How is Son anywhere near that? If I just take my Blue glasses off for a second, I’d feel a bit hard done to if I was Martinez. He’s had an incredible season, but I guess he doesn’t have a winners medal.

Deadline this year was 14th May I believe - PFA were forced to get with the times and switch to an online voting system which meant the window could be extended beyond the usual cut-off point.

I have always wondered why the deadline is so early in regular seasons though when there’s still so many games to play.

Cheers my man.

no foden in the team of the year ?

It’s a weird one with keepers isn’t it. However much we love Ed and pleased he’s in the team his clean sheets record is as much down to the team in front of him, if not more. Not looked at stats but wouldn’t be surprised if Martinez made more saves. At least he got Villa’s player of the year (I think).

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Surprised to see TAA, van Dijk, Henderson and Thiago miss out.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Ah but a conspiracy theorist would say, with City having so many nominees, it spreads the vote too thin, allowing rat face a free run to the finish line!

Clear bias in the OP - why is ratface listed first?!?!

 

[M Gaudino]

Son instead of Foden makes no sense, even spurs fans think Son’s been shite since christmas

 

[RobMCFC]

Foden is nominated for both POTY and YPOTY and yet isn’t In the best XI?

Maybe they voted for each category separately and like to spread the love around?

Or maybe Pep picked the team because there is no DM!
