Why Is John Terry on the short list for pfa?

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Don't forget the voting lists go out for this in January and players are effectively voting on their players of 2005

It's only in the last couple of months that the Spurs team have pushed on - too late to influence the voting.

Hmm ... fair enough. Let's hope next year's list is a little more imaginative then.

Well it depends on who the players vote for ... doesn't it ?

is there any coincidence in the fact that Terry gets slated for being mediocre, as did Tony Adams, but they're like rocks for their teams, and their countries

I'd put my faith in Terry, I wouldn't bet one of Uncle Spielbergs discarded betting slips on Rio Ferdinand for example.

I am surprised that Jens Lenman is not on that list, he has been superb for Arsenal this season, even if he is mentally unstable.

Great to watch though, as he goes MENTAL

Where's Turienzo?!

Dawson isn't as good as Terry. Nor has he been as good as Terry this year. Terry is the most outstanding central defender by quite some way.

That list is an utter load of bollocks. I know it's law to have Lampard, Gerrard and Terry on every list, but honestly - excuse my bias, but how does not ONE Spurs player make that list?

King? Robinson? Keane? Carrick?

Total joke as usual.

Why don't you scweam, scweam and scweam until you're sick.

Thanks guys for the classic Spurs tantrums.

Carrick is so overrated.

 

[zefarelly]

so are spurs . . . horrible club

 

[blockhseagull]

I f***ing hate spurs....big club i think not

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I f***ing hate spurs....big club i think not

Whats do you class as a big club?

I f***ing hate spurs....big club i think not

On our way to proving just that ... got to have a little bit of success this season, what with the Albion not providing too much joy!

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Carrick is so overrated.

Underrated, if anything.

 

[Icy Gull]

Whats do you class as a big club?

Arsenal

[Why is John Terry shortlisted?

Might have something to do with the fact he is f***ing ace...

 

[Les Biehn]

Underrated, if anything.

Parker, Lampard, Gerrard, Cole, Nolan, Barton and maybe Cattemole, Bowyer and Reo-Coker are better than him. Jenas is probably a better player to, but his form has been rubbish all season.

Gets away with shit loads of hand balls though

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Getting away with hands balls...the mark of a GREAT player.

Lampard, Cole and Gerrard maybe, but play in different positions. Nolan and Barton are decent players, but don't have his ability on the ball. As for the last three ... absolutely not!

For my money, Carrick's the best holding midfielder England has by some way; his positioning is near-perfect, and only Beckham can rival his passing ability, except Carrick can do it with both feet. Only his decision-making and tackling need to improve.

Also, I'd call Jenas' season inconsistent, rather than rubbish.
