Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez’s exclusion from the PFA Team Of The Year has drawn a lot of criticisms from football fans all over the world with many suggesting that Sadio Mane is undeserving of a spot. The Chilean has been directly involved in 28 goals in the Premier League this seasonscored 19 goals, provided 9 assists was nominated for Player of the Season but shockingly didn’t make the team of the year list.
The team, on Thursday morning, released the list consisting of eight players; 4 from Chelsea and Tottenham each, 1 player from Manchester United, Liverpool and Everton each. Manchester United’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic was also a surprise omission. The pair are the only two who were nominated for the PFA Player of the Year award but failed to make the XI.
- David De Gea
- Gary Cahill
- David Luiz
- N’Golo Kante
- Toby Alderweireld
- Dele Alli
- Sadio Mane
- Danny Rose
- Kyle Walker.
- Harry Kane
- Romelu Lukaku
It is the first time since the 2013/2014 season that no Arsenal player will be represented in the team.
