Just a bit of fun - i was just wondering what people would select as their premiership team of the season so far? Plenty of room for discussion! For me personally: Lloris Bellerin Morgan Alderweireld Fuchs Mahrez Kante Alli Payet Kane Vardy Though arguements could be made the Payet isnt a LM. Notable mentions to our entire squad, Charlie Daniels, Rose, Ozil, Willian, Smalling, Coutinho, Lukaku and Ighalo
Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Huth Fuchs Mahrez Kante Drinkwater Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Got to be surely?
De Gea Bellerin - Huth - Alderweireld - Fuchs Kante Alli --- Payet Mahrez Kane --- Vardy Subs: Lloris, Morgan, Trippier, Noble, Ozil, Aguero, Ighalo
I would pick the same first team as you but would have Cresswell over Trippier, Drinkwater over Noble and Lukaku over Ighalo as subs.
Seems John Terry thinks most of our team should be included. His PFA team nomination; Schmeichel Smalling Huth Morgan Bertrand Mahrez Drinkwater Kante Payet Vardy Kane. Player of the season : Mahrez
Butland Bellerin Huth Morgan Fuchs Mahrez Kante Drinkwater Payet Vardy Kane Subs- Schmeichel, Alderweireld, Smalling, Ozil, Alli, De Bruyne, Lukaku,
I always enjoy doing team of the seasons. I guess it could give a genuine neutral's opinions. -----------------------Lloris----------------------- Bellerin----Smalling---Alderweireld----Fuchs ----------------Kante----------Alli---------------- Mahrez-----------------Ozil--------------Payet ------------------------Kane--------------------- Subs: De Gea, Rose, Morgan, Dier, De Bruyne, Vardy, Lukaku Sorry for leaving Vardy out guys (shouldn't have posted this on the Leicester board really ) but as soon as I pick that formation and its only one striker it makes it tough for him. Kane has to be in there for me.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35980893 BBC are so ****e, look under Pat Nevin, they've put Kante as annArsenal player!!! Does nobody check their articles before they post them?
The fact is, all of those bar probably Albrighton and Okazaki have a realistic shot at being in the team of the season.
Agree, though i think that whoever chooses it will only have 1 CB and 1 CM from the same club, this is why i think DD and Morgan (think Huth has been a big difference since hes been with us and should prob get the nod) will probably not be selected, although they should be discussed. Ones in bold have to be in for me, the underlined will probably be discussed but won't be in it so they can include a broader team coverage, not really fair, but you can see why they don't want all the players from the same club. Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Huth Fuchs Mahrez Kante Drinkwater Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Though he may miss out on TOTY, DD's chances have surely gone up of getting to the euros if Hendersons injury is as bad as expected.
Fair point actually - if Hendo is out then that makes DD a shoe-in i think as a defensive-minded CM. I think Vardy's record makes him a guarantee for the TOTS, as well as Kante and Mahrez. Alderweireld is guaranteed i think so one of Huth/Morgan will make it i imagine - Morgan due to his captaincy for me but you could toss a coin and no one would bat an eye-lid too much. Guaranteed for me: GK Bellerin Alderweireld LCFC LB Mahrez Kante CM Payet Kane Vardy Leaving any goalkeeper - Butland, Schmeichel, De Gea and Lloris to fight it out CB - Huth or Morgan Any LB - Fuchs, Bertrand or Rose And a CM - to be fought between Alli, Ozil and Drinkwater
Think Alli will probably get it, Ozil would have been a shoo in if he'd kept up his form from last year, but you can't argue that Allis been a big impact on Spurs season.
