The PFA awards of 2015 have where announced a couple of weeks ago and as many of you may know the team above was the official team chosen by the PFA. What seems to be rather odd about the awards is that Nominees and shortlists are created long before the season is even up. Is it really fair to make a team of the season before the season is over?
In a season where City fans can admit it wasn't the best of seasons it's still hard to believe that there are no City players in the team of the season. This is especially apparent when you think that it was two City players that won the two objective awards rather than opinion (Aguero with the golden boot and Hart with the golden glove). There will be a lot of people that argue that Aguero didn't have as big of an impact as Costa/Kane. But the fact of the matter is he scored the most goals; if the job of a striker is to score goals then Aguero has been the best as he scored the most. Then comes the argument about the assists players get. But Aguero got the most of them as well(out of Costa/ Kane).
The same principle goes for Joe Hart he got the most clean sheets so he should be in the PFA team of the year. An argument for this could be "well the defense in front of Hart is better so he doesn't have to save as much". The first thing any City fan would do to that is laugh because our defense this season has been far from world class. Second of all I could say " If our defence is so great then why do we have no defenders in the team of the season".
The final player I have to touch on in this team is Coutinho. Now he has had a good season but good enough to be in the team of the season. Rather than ranting on again about how Coutinho shouldn't be in the team, I'm just going to let THIS website tell you....

With the bench consisting of players I though could have gone in but either weren't good enough or just someone was better
