Courtois
Azpi - Toby - Keane - Rose
Kante - Lallana
Mane - Alli - Hazard
Kane


To be honest mine was heavily affected by the fact I wanted to put Lloris, Vertonghen, Walker, Wanyama and Eriksen in there.


Fuck our team is good.

Its definitely player of the year, Namely from April-April

I mean come on. Van Nistelrooy won it in his first season. They vote for it during spring, not in January.

It's called player of the year, but it's most definitely player of the season.

They should change it to striker of the year. Ridiculous how it's only about goals

Worse than Garth Crooks' team of the week

Eriksen and Lallana should both be in there

Wait, y'all have confused the hell out of me

When you say year, do you mean for 2016? Like January 2016-December 2016? Or the season August 2016-May 2017?

POTY just has to be the name because it is better than POTS

I am really confused, if it's POTY then why the hell is Ibra on the list, he has only played in the EPL since August.

Or does it include his PSG Days?

If it's POTY 2016, Kane should win it, his goal record has been amazing.

Pretty much everyone in the pub tonight, whatever their allegiance, was stumped that Dele wasn't on the main list.

Plenty of confusion why Kane and Lukaku were on the young player list too, which I can appreciate.

The BBC Sport 'Pick your Team of the Year' doesn't even include the formation used by the two top teams, making it difficult to include all of the best players in a logical system. The closest is 3-4-3, but that doesn't allow Walker, Rose, Alonso or Moses on the flanks. Genius!

Personally, I think the TOTY should be:

Heaton
Walker - Alderweireld - Luiz - Bertrand
Hazard - Kante - Dele - Eriksen
Kane - Lukaku
But Eriksen is criminally underrated by just about everyone, despite the fact that, imo, he's been our best player this season and clearly in the top few in the league. I suspect that Mane or Sanchez will replace him and they'll get Zlatan in there as well, possibly for Kane.

Hazard and Dele for me.

Can't disagree with that, Hazard has shown his true world class ability this season and is driving Chavs to the title, Alli has been brilliant.

Some might put Kante and Sane as alternatives but for me it's not even a close one, Hazard and Alli have been special this season.

The team will be Rose, Dele, Kane, Lukaku and a bunch of Chav players

Luiz in a back four would be atrocious!
