No, no he hasn't.

Well Apparantly Evra has been as well. It shouldn't surprise you for him to say they've been awful. Evra plays for United, and Cole is English...

I know a lot of United fans who feel the same about Evra, it's not just me who is concerned about his massive dip in form...

Was talking about him to Kem the other night. Yeah, it's a concern. But he had no rest in the summer, was banned from the France team, dropped, lost the captaincy and is only just recently back in. That's going to take it's toll. And it's almost 2 years since he did have a rest- so it's not a huge surprise, but it is slightly concerning yeah.

Despite that he's still played alright.

I'd put Rafael at right back if he'd have played more games.

Though im a little bit biased.

Also, that midfield is far too attack minded; get Poulsen in there

PFA Premier League Team of Year: Van Der Sar, Sagna, Cole, Vidic, Kompany, Nani, Nasri, Wilshere, Bale, Tevez, Berbatov.


Discuss.

Leighton Baines should be the left back but besides that it seems pretty good. I'd say Parker is the odd man out as Nasri isn't a legitimate center mid but what can you do?

Nasri's prefered position is in the centre, not on the wings and that's where he plays best. Unfortuantly, he has Cesc to compete with for that spot.

Kompany He is the original beastifier

What has Baines done apart from deliver a few good crosses, score a few free kicks and score some penatlies?

Defensively he's pretty poor.

What has Cole done apart from....errr.....

I'd take him over Evra and Cole right now but it's opinion, left back is a hard position to call in all fairness.

Not really played there enough to warrant him being placed there in a team of the year kinda thing though.

I'm just glad Vinnie didn't get overlooked, he's been class all season.

agreed but thats usually how the team of the year is, Nasri definitely deserved a place so they stuck him somewhere that was open. Not really a big deal.

Well... Cole has been brilliant as usual, just doing his thing. His performance yesterday sums him up.

The fact Cole is a part of the defence that has conceded the least goals in the league tells its own story too.

Also, these awards are April-April awards, and Cole was better since last April to this April.

Ivanovic > Sagna tbh.

Kuyt 10 goals 5 assists 28 games.
Gareth Bale 7 goals 1 assist in 26 games.

Kuyt > Bale.

How is Baines not left-back? Ashley Cole? Quality left-back but Baines has been better this season.

Most of his good games were when he played there when Fabregas was injured to be fair, it's only recently when he's moved over to the wing when Fab was fit, and coincidently or not his form dipped. He's good with both but better in the center.

Stopped taking that seriously when you said Cole's been brilliant.

Naa. Sagna is a better RB, and also Ivanovic has played CB quite a few times this season.

No worse then Baines.

Best in the league in my view. Complete defender, does't always rely on his strength. Which is why I sometimes don't like Vidic, just kicks and bullies players.

Holden not on this list means he is in the actual team of the year, right? Same with Dempsey?

Yeah, I know all that. Point still stands though.

But yeah, like fluffy kittens said he was just chucked into the free spot.

Aye Kompany has been a beast. I'm gutted we didn't sign him because him and Vermaelen could have been such a good partnership for club and country.

Eh?

Yeah, and Tim Howard too

And Altidore, a man so good he transcends leagues.

Thought so. Don't forget Bradley though
