LinekersApples Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 If the PFA team of the year could only be picked outside of the top 6 (which would defeat the object and be weird...but go with it) what would be your team? I imagine we would feature well, as would Watford and them Wolfs. Would anyone else get in? Name your 11:
StanSP Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Rui Patricio Pereira - Boly - Ake - Digne Ndidi Felipe Anderson - Sigurdsson - Fraser Vardy - Jimenez Notable mentions/tough to not include: Brooks Gueye Doherty Chilwell Moutinho Jota Wan-Bissaka Wilson Fabianski Rondon
AKCJ Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Fabianski Ricardo Schar Ake Digne Brooks Neves Maddison Fraser Jimenez Vardy
Captain... Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 This is actually pretty tough, there are lots of good players in the mid table teams and a few decent ones lower down. Obviously Wolves are the best team ever to be promoted, Pererya, Delofeu, Deeney from Watford. Ricardo, Chilwell, Tielemans, Maddison, Vardy. Fraser Brooks and Wilson from Bournemouth Anderson from West Ham Richarlison and Sigurdsson of Everton. Zaha, Milivojevic and Wan-Bissakka of Palace.
murphy Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 What a good idea for a thread. Trickier than you think. I've tried to be unbiased but I've still got four City players and Tielemans would make it if he had had a full season. Anyway, my attempt: Pickford Ricardo Dunk Maguire Chillwell Rice Zaha Neves Doucoure Andersen Vardy
jayfox26 Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Etheridge, Ricardo, Digne, Keane, Boly, Milivojevic, Doucoure, Anderson, Fraser, Vardy, Wilson. They've all stood out for me but there a quite a few others in contention like Foster, Chilwell and Wan Bisaka.

Seems as though you have picked the players who you think are the best in their positions rather than the players which have been the best this season. Edit: sorry if it sounded like i was being a tit, i was just having an opinion on your opinion ?
Fox92 Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 My attempt: Foster Pereira -- Cathcart -- Lascelles -- Wan-Bissaka Milojevic -- Moutinho Fraser -- Brooks -- Deulofeu Jimenez

I haven't seen all the other clubs games. Pickford is England's keeper. I wouldn't say he has been dreadful from what I have seen but can you name a better keeper from the 13 clubs outside the top six? Even if picked on reputation if his form has dropped, Pickford has to be one of the best. As for Maguire, he is someone I have seen a lot of and I don't care what a lot of people on this forum think of him, I always defend him. Sometimes he looks like our best attacking threat and our most skillful dribbler. Defenders can't knock his massive bulk off the ball. He has made some mistakes and he is slow but as far as I'm concerned he is class. He is the cats whiskers, the bees knees and the dogs bollocks. No one I would swap him for outside of the top six.

I would definitely sooner have Kasper than Pickford. He did a fantastic job in the world cup, but personally I am hoping another English keeper emerges before the next one. Would agree that on his day Maguire is right up there, he's just not consistently performed at that level unfortunately... can't help thinking a lot of that was down to niggly injuries though. His performance against Liverpool really sticks out for me though as the defensive show of the season for us.

Mine would be something similar: Etheridge Ricky P Boly Rice Doherty Milivojevic Tielemans / Neves Anderson Richarlison Vardy Fraser Slightly dodgy formation with Rice at CB but I've just gone with players I think are decent - no idea of the stats tbh. If Tielemens doesn't count then I'd go with Neves.

I don't disagree that they are both top players im just saying neither have been at their best this season. As regards this season, Etheridge, Foster, Dubravka and a fair few more have been better than Pickford. For me, quite a few players from the England wc team have been below par this season, Pickford, Maguire, Trippier, Alli. Yet Sterling has had the season of his life.
DerbyshireFox Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Was thinking about this earlier. Trying to do it without Leicester goggles on is tricky also but I would say: Foster Ricardo Boly Ake Wan-Bisakka Zaha Maddison Moutinho Fraser Vardy Jiminez honourable mentions to Chilwell, Wilson, Deulofeu, Jota, Doherty and Milivojevic
CosbehFox Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 On the keeper debate, Fabianski been superb this season
oxford blue Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Firstly. Esperito Santo to manage this team: Foster Pereira Ake Maguire Wan-Bissaka Neves Sigurdsson Maddison Rice Zaha Jimenez (or Vardy) Centre backs are hard to pick.Maguire not at his best consistently, but still better than others. Midfield is difficult, but only because a lot of good midfield players this season. (i am surprised Rice is not in many of above lists as he is best midfielder outside top 6 in my opinion)Jimenez has been more consistent than Vardy, but Vardy on recent form is better I would certainly have Fraser and Brooks on subs bench. Doucore has also been consistently good.
Frost Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Vardy and Ricardo for us, wouldn't say we'd get anyone else in the XI.

Doucore has also been consistently good. There is absolutely no "or Vardy". Id say there is competition for every single spot and everyone will have different opinions, but Vardy is, and has been for the last 4 seasons, the best striker outside the top 6 (and even better than most of the top 6). I like Jimenez but Vardy has been better and the stats show that with him being the highest scorer outside the top 6. Edit: except the 16-17 season. There were a few better than him that season.
jayfox26 Posted 25 April 2019 Posted 25 April 2019 Anyone not picking Vardy is mad. Hes the highest scorer outside the top 6 again. Jimenez and Wilson have both scored 12 and Vardy has 16. Absolutely no competition! I like Jimenez and think he'll be even better next season but hes not as good as JV right now.
