Ajax’s Jan Vertonghen and Christian Eriksen, AZ’s Esteban Alvarado, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rasmus-Elm-c30628, and Heerenveen’s Luciano Narsingh and Bas Dost make into the best team of the campaign.
The 2011/12 Eredivisie season was concluded on May 6, with Ajax Amsterdam being crowned the Dutch champions for the 31st time in the league history.
Bettor.com has thoroughly analysed all the 18 top flight teams and has forged the team of the season.
Goalkeeper
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Esteban-Alvarado-c12908 – AZ Alkmaar
The 23-year-old gloves man, who arrived at AFAS Stadion in the summer of 2010, had a tremendous season between the sticks. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Costa-c9458 Rican International conceded the least number of goals throughout the season, only letting 35
goals, and managed to claim 15 clean sheets in 34 Eredivisie matches.
Right-back
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kelvin-Leerdam-c20548 – Feyenoord Rotterdam
The young full-back was rock solid throughout the campaign and played an integral role in his side’s second place finish. It was his consistent performances that gave him the spot at the right-back position ahead of the Dutch International,
Gregory van der Wiel, who failed to stage consistent showings.
Centre-back
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Toby-Alderweireld-c35183 – Ajax Amsterdam
The Belgian International formed a firm partnership with his compatriot, Jan Vertonghen, at the centre of the defence. The 23-year-old, who has been plying his trade at Amsterdam Arena since the summer of 2008, was without a doubt
one of the most influential players in his side’s Eredivisie triumph.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jan-Vertonghen-c17814 – Ajax Amsterdam
The 25-year-old struggled to perform to his calibre at the start of the season. However, the Belgian stopper not only solidified his side’s back-line, his eight goals and two assists in 31 appearances certainly helped his side
in securing maximum points on many occasions.
Left-back
Simon Poulsen – AZ Alkmaar
The Danish International’s inclusion is certainly not debateable, as the 27-year-old has been performing impressively for the Alkmaar outfit in the past couple of seasons.
Right-midfielder
Jordy Clasie – http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 Rotterdam
The young midfielder was instrumental in his side’s impressive showings throughout the season. Despite netting only three goals and setting up three more, the 20-year-old was the creative flare, which the Rotterdam giants were
missing in the past couple of seasons.
Central-midfielder
Rasmus Elm – http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 Alkmaar
The Swedish midfielder had a dream 2011/12 season. With 10 goals and seven assists to his name in 32 matches, the youngster without a doubt deserves his place at the centre of the park. He would be keen to keep his good form intact
when he represents his national side at Euro 2012 this summer.
Left-midfielder
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Christian-Eriksen-c9074 – Ajax Amsterdam
The versatile midfielder has performed brilliantly and played an integral role in his side’s phenomenal title winning campaign. The 20-year-old netted seven goals while amassing an impressive 17 assists in 33 matches.
Right-winger
Luciano Narsingh – http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/SC-Heerenveen-c40463
The highly talented winger proved to be a constant menace for every opposition at the right flank throughout the season. Netting eight goals while amassing 20 assists in 34 Eredivisie appearances, the 21-year-old played an instrumental
role in securing a UEFA Europa League berth for his side.
Left-winger
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 Eindhoven
The pint-sized winger enjoyed a stellar debut campaign at Philips Stadion, scoring 21 times while amassing 13 assists in 33 matches, and undoubtedly deserves his place at the left flank in the team of the season.
Strikers
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bas-Dost-c7339 – SC Heerenveen
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Heracles-Almelo-c39520 striker had an exceptional 2011/12 season. The youngster netted mesmerising 32 goals in 34 matches to become Eredivisie’s leading goal scorer. The prolific hit-man not only showed his impressive finishing
skills in front of goal, he also managed to set up his teammates on eight occasions.
