Roland17:
His best moments were with Milan.

Forza Milan.

My fav(Andrea a close second) and the the Best Rossonieri in recent times. I remember His debut away to Ancona vividly. He walked onto the pitch that day an unknown entity and came out as the Best player in Serie A(exaggerating a lil bit but not far from the truth). The electric pace, the elegant strides, the majestic ballet like movements and His eye for a pass plus goal sesnse were all evident that day.

He was for a 4 year stretch the best player in serie A. His only rival was Ibra. However whilst Ibra faded in Europe, Ricky shone like a millions stars. I simply can not remember a golden Milan moment during that period that did not include Ricky. To think We signed him for mere peanuts- €8.5M is laughable.

OBRIGADO RICKY.....AC MILAN LEGEND!

No Lamps? I don't believe this

Terry clearly did not include himself or the players He played with Hence no Lamps, Cech,Makalele,Carvalho, Drogba and A.Cole.

This will probably be Rooney's best season in 5 years(Since 2011/12). He is on track to surpass the 20+ league goals mark for only the third time in His career.

Eruditor:
But I am exposing the flaw in the reasoning that being voted in the team of the year translates to being adjudged as the best in that position.

Since someone can be the best at something and not make the list, therefore, being in the team of the year does not make you the best in that position. QED.

They'll always be flaws in any system that requires the use of "voting" of some sort after all it is one man's opinion against another.

Aguero's cold hard stats however speaks for Him. He does not need the PFA awards to solidify his position as the "Best striker in the league". The same cannot be said for a RB, most especially not one that was deemed good enough to play just 12 games out of a sum total of 38.

BlueAngel444:
Me or Eruditor that says Walker was never the best RB in EPL

I am on your side here.

BlueAngel444:
So your conclusion is that the panel that rated Walker, a 'benchwarmer', highly is foolish

One of them Appeared in the League a total of 33 times(Walker)for Spurs last season whilst the other had a sum total of 12 appearances(Trippier). You be the judge

Eruditor:
Aguero has he been in EPL team of the year? Does it mean he has never been the best striker in the league ?

Aguero was the Golden Boot Winner in the 2014/2015 season. So He was at the "VERY LEAST" the best striker ONCE.

GOALS + ASSISTS are what Strikers are Judged by. A quite visible Metric.

laPULGA:
well CAHILK and LUIZ have also appeared in pfa team of the year more than once and i dont remember any of them being that good in defence

Luiz has appeared in the PFA Team Of The Year ONCE....And YES He was one of the Best defenders in the league that season. Ditto Cahill in the years He made the PFA Teams.

What you remember really isn't that important. It's How good their performances were in those seasons that matters.

Eruditor:
At different points they were hyped over Walker. That is my point. Walker did not start playing yesterday. So tell your friend who was trying to argue that Walker was once the best in the league when he was not.

Disgaree with this. Kyle Walker was twice in the PFA team of the year. This clearly shows He was the Best RB in the league at some point.

Nihilist:
Firstly he didnt make that many passes. Check the stats again

Secondly West Brom battered Manyoo in the second half. If not for pdp denying a clear pen game might have ended 2-2

Thirdly, one of the games where Matic actually made around 100 passes this season was versus huddersfield...they lost.

Its not by all that one.

My bad...The dudes on MOTD2 said so. That notwithstanding, He completed more passes than any other player this weekend

Tbh United should have wrapped up the game by half time. A simple lapse of concentration allowed West Brom back in the game. Even pardew admitted in his post match interview that a draw would have been "fortuitous".

Lastly, most credible sites had the Lanky Bag of Ewa Pupa as "MOTM".......Not taking sides sha #justsippingmyzobo

I collect 1 De Rica from bag of beans take jambody hunger after the match!!!

Hahaha

NEMANJA MATIC - 116 Passes today

#Bagofbeans....Just saying.

Uncle Chic2pimp na true?

MO FARAH!.....GRANDE!

lordfalcao:
for a player with what hazard have should be scoring more. Most of these players don't have up to what he possess in terms of football, they just know how to score

That's the thing though, Hazard has never been a renowned goal scorer and most probably will never be. Good point however when you say He should be scoring more which I am certain He will do. 20 goals in the league is attainable for Hazard.

That last statement of yours is VERY TRUE!

Saw this as well.....

The amount of disrespect Hazard gets is mind-blowing. Depay you know

Just saw this online.

Mate as I said already, this season has been written off. Simply looking forward to the start of next season and getting a quality manager in place.

A40:
I salute his motor and conditioning. Almost 50 mins and he was still playing at 200mph, I barely last 10-15 minutes for court these days even for normal pickup setting

Brah your conditioning is wack. Step it up my Gee.

raumdeuter:
Better than Hidden Hazard right?

airmark you dey hear so from sensible people

....You be onijogbon.

Greatihex:
if so, we have a lot of genius coaches then?

Not necessarily. There are very few coaches around that truly can be described as Genuises. Even then I'll divide them into 2 categories namely "Attacking Minded" and "Defensive Minded". The likes of Mou and Simeone fall into the latter whilst Pep stands pretty much alone in the former.

And you have to back it up with performances on the pitch and trophies.

Zaha and Mahrez......

Greatihex:
what makes him a genius exactly?

His attention to even the minute of details is second to inane. He also has the ability to make players buy into His particular style of breath taking attacking footy.

Ibime:
Nothing like win me over. I'm hard hearted. My hatred for Pep is seeped in the Chelsea-Barca rivalry of the 2000s. I will continue hating him, even if he continues doing well. I go just chill until he lose again, then I will be back with my songs and celebrations.

As things stand, that's looking like a very long wait. Also may be it's about time you swallow your pride and admit Pep is indeed a Genius.

Don't worry we'll also be back to mock you come the season end.

Ibime:
For where. City were out of title race by end of December

Where do you currently stand on the Pep vs Mou battle?.... I bet you are slowly but surely being won over by "FRAUDIOLA".
