    The PFA announces each Division's team of the year towards the end of April. Last season the team was as follows:
    • GK - David De Gea (Manchester United)
    • RB - Hector Bellerin (Arsenal)
    • CB - Toby Alderweireld (Tottenham Hotspur)
    • CB - Wes Morgan (Leicester City)
    • LB - Danny Rose (Tottenham Hotspur)
    • Mid - Riyad Mahrez (Leicester City)
    • Mid - N'Golo Kanté (Leicester City)
    • Mid - Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur)
    • Mid - Dimitri Payet (West Ham)
    • CF - Jamie Vardy (Leicester City)
    • CF - Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur)
    This year there are a lot more debatable choices. I thought that we could compile our own team and see how close we get to the real thing. I am assuming a 4-4-2 formation.

    I will put up one poll at a time and anyone is free to vote (non-Saints fans too). If you choose other please state their name and afterwards the player(s) with the most votes will be selected. Each vote will be open for 3 days.

    GK - David De Gea (Manchester United)

    I think he should make the list at least.

    Moses isn't actually a right back, as he hardly ever does much defending. Yesterday he wasn't available, so he was replaced by Pedro, who is hardly anyone's idea of a right back. I think it has to be Walker as RB.

    Will there be an option for a Right wing back though? No, so Moses will be seen as a right back. I think for a midfielder, Moses has offered a good account of himself in defence.

    I was not going to include him, however if you compare his position to Kyle Walker's in many of the games Spurs have played in recent times I think that they are equivocal. I mean should I put César Azpilicueta as a right back or a centre back, systems are much more fluid these days!

    Walker, although I still don't think he can cross
