Team of the season – English Premier League: Luis Nani, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Samir-Nasri-c32360 and more (Part 2)
After elaborating on the likes of Vidic and Bacary Sagna’s inclusion in the team of the season for Bettor.com, it is time to shed some light on the left back spot and the rest of the places in the English Premier League’s all star
team...
Left Back: http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pablo-Zabaleta-c29022
Manchester City’s left back is such an underrated individual that it is unbelievable. Despite the fact that he hardly garners any praise from his manager or the pundits that cover English football, Zabaleta is a work horse for
the blue half of Manchester. For City, Zabaleta has played at left back more often than not but his versatility has allowed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 to use him in midfield and as a right back as well. Nonetheless, Zabaleta has been a consistent name on Manchester City’s
team sheet.
His finest performance of the season came against Manchester United in the F.A Cup final where City thrashed their rivals to claim a place in the final which they eventually won. For his unending stamina and impressive defensive
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Skills-c40539, Zabaleta makes the left back berth in Bettor.com’s team of the season his own.
Right Wing: Luis http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nani-c27299
Manchester United’s mercurial winger was one of the most improved players in their squad this season. The Portuguese winger mirrored his good friend http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 in some respects but Nani really did evolve his game throughout
the 2010-2011 Premier League season.
After starting the season in emphatic fashion, the Portuguese forward linked up with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Total-c40747, Nani assisted
17 and scored nine goals in his 33 appearances for Manchester United. As a result of his endeavours, United won the league title in the end and also made it to the final of the UEFA Champions League.
Central Midfield: Yaya Toure
After a 24 million pound move from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 to Manchester City in the summer of 2010, everyone thought that City had overspent once more in order to capture the services of Yaya Toure. A season onward and Toure looks like a bargain
for the Citizens. In their bid to finish third just below http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 due to an inferior goal different, Yaya Toure played a massive role for Manchester City in the central midfield region.
His effortless ability to pick up the ball and run with it at defenders and also to find the right pass at the right time with the exact amount of the weight on the ball makes him priceless for Manchester City. Such elegance in
a tall man is hardly common in modern football but Toure did it all from scoring goals to assisting them. The Ivorian international scored six goals for Manchester City and assisted six as well in the Premier League.
Central Midfield: http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luka-Modric-c22857
There is a reason as to why http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809, Chelsea and Manchester United are all vying to seal a transfer deal for Luka Modric and that reason is none other than the Croatian midfielder’s talent to spray the ball out wide and to run
with it in the centre of the park. Modric’s performances for Tottenham in the 2010-2011 Premier League season have slipped under the radar due to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan in the UEFA Champions League.
In reality, Modric has been Tottenham’s best player in the 2010-2011 season. He was instrumental in their win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 at the Emirates stadium and their draw with the Gunners at White Hart Lane too. In plenty of demand and
rightly so, Modric earns his place on this team sheet due to his noteworthy performances for Tottenham in the 2010-2011 Premier League season.
