St. Neil Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Luke and Adam in it, and the rest are. Cech, Coleman, Cahill, Kompany, Shaw; Lallana, Gerrard, Toure, Hazard; Sturridge, Suarez.
EBS1980 Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Well deserved! When was last time we had 1 in the squad let alone 2??
Dig Dig Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 They are in fine company there, we will need to convince them both that it's worth sticking around. Well deserved.
krissyboy31 Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Surprised by Cech. Can't argue with the rest. Le Tiss was probably our last representative.
S-Clarke Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Sums up what a truly amazing season it has been for us league wise, anyone who has a moan is clearly off their rocker.
norwaysaint Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Well deserved! When was last time we had 1 in the squad let alone 2?? For the prem, last time was Bridge in 2001-2 Last time we had 2 players (3 actually) in a PFA team of the year was 2011-2 for the Championship PFA team, Davis, Lallana, Lambert Last time we had 2 in for the top tier team? Never, I think. Keegan, Shilton, Watson, Channon and MLT all got there but never 2 at the same time.
Chewy Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Brilliant. Not sure I'd leave silva out, and Cech is a surprise, but fantastic recognition for our players. Well done both.
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Surprised Shaw's in it, he's not been amazing, just a season of solid performances.
Bearsy Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Some achievement for Shaw, must be one of the youngest ever
Saint-Armstrong Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Luke just on SSN, looking very smart. His comments... "For me to be 18 and played 30 odd games is something I was dreaming of. To have done it is very good." "The England stuff was probably the best feeling of my life. I want more of that so I will keep pushing myself." "We've got two games left and then we'll have to see what happens at the end of the season." "Southampton's a great club for youngsters. I've still got a lot to learn." "It's nice to be linked with those clubs, but like I said, I've got football to focus on." Asked if he would be happy to not move clubs: "Yeah, of course. It's all rumours really."
krissyboy31 Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Surprised Shaw's in it, he's not been amazing, just a season of solid performances. Remember, this is voted by by fellow professionals. The players that play against him, week in, week out have obviously seen something in him. I'm a little surprised he's in ahead of Baines.
Saint Rees Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Lots of this "see what happens" stuff. Think they're both referring to Poch's future, little hint for the board to offer him a big new deal and what he wants in regards to transfer funds etc
The Cat Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Fantastic to see 2 Academy graduates make the team. Such a boost for the players, club and the future.
Dig Dig Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Remember, this is voted by by fellow professionals. The players that play against him, week in, week out have obviously seen something in him. I'm a little surprised he's in ahead of Baines. Not many wingers will have enjoyed playing against him nor many RB's
beatlesaint Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Lots of this "see what happens" stuff. Yeah, almost as much as "we will not sell our best players", " there will be no firesale at this club" and "any bids for our players will probably be met with a no"
Saint Charlie Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Yeah, almost as much as "we will not sell our best players", " there will be no firesale at this club" and "any bids for our players will probably be met with a no" Sadly not much the club can really do if Shaw gets an offer and wants to leave.
krissyboy31 Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Not many wingers will have enjoyed playing against him nor many RB's No, don't think Coleman did yesterday either.
S-Clarke Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Surprised Shaw's in it, he's not been amazing, just a season of solid performances. He's 18 years old and has played like an experienced top class top flight player, yes, he's been amazing.
doddisalegend Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Luke and Adam in it, and the rest are. Cech, Coleman, Cahill, Kompany, Shaw; Lallana, Gerrard, Toure, Hazard; Sturridge, Suarez. So this the first 11 we should be aiming to field next season if we want to show some intent.... Seriously though well deserved...well done lads.
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Remember, this is voted by by fellow professionals. The players that play against him, week in, week out have obviously seen something in him. I'm a little surprised he's in ahead of Baines. Maybe, the media hype around him must help a bit though. I don't really think he's notably better then Clyne or Chambers myself.
S-Clarke Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 So this the first 11 we should be aiming to field next season if we want to show some intent.... Seriously though well deserved...well done lads. Well, we followed that rule in L1 and the Championship...
doddisalegend Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 He's 18 years old and has played like an experienced top class top flight player, yes, he's been amazing. Very true still surprised he beat Baines though.
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 He's 18 years old and has played like an experienced top class top flight player, yes, he's been amazing. Age shouldn't come into it, it's about how well they performed this season and he hasn't been outstanding, just very good for his age.
The Cat Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Sadly not much the club can really do if Shaw gets an offer and wants to leave. Plenty of other threads to discuss next season, leave this one to celebrating his achievement please.
S-Clarke Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Age shouldn't come into it, it's about how well they performed this season and he hasn't been outstanding, just very good for his age. I think he's been outstanding, wouldn't swap him for anyone else.
Saint Charlie Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Plenty of other threads to discuss next season, leave this one to celebrating his achievement please. Fair enough. He really is superb player and for me is the best left back in the league already. Obviously fellow players agree.
aintforever Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Great news, both have to be on the plane to Brazil. I really don't see the point in playing safe and taking Ashley Cole, we're not going to win the thing so might as well take a gamble.
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 I think he's been outstanding, wouldn't swap him for anyone else. I don't recall seeing him ever win a MOTM or be voted in on here though, might be wrong.
shurlock Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 I don't recall seeing him ever win a MOTM or be voted in on here though, might be wrong. Whats that got to do with anything Trenty? Would be surprised if many LBs anywhere win MOTMs.
CB Saint Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 I am convinced that pastor is the basta rd love child of alpine and Glasgow. well done Luke and AdamAdam, thoroughly derseved.
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Whats that got to do with anything Trenty? Would be surprised if many LBs anywhere win MOTMs. It means he's rarely had an outstanding game let alone season if you don't take into account his age.
krissyboy31 Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 It means he's rarely had an outstanding game let alone season if you don't take into account his age. Do you think he would have been picked for the senior England team because of "hype"? He ain't a Man U player.........yet!
shurlock Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 It means he's rarely had an outstanding game let alone season if you don't take into account his age. But he's not in competition with players in other positions to get into the PFA team. He's up against other LBs. As I say, LB is hardly the most influential position -say compared to attacking players, so its no surprise it doesnt attract much attention. Clyne's MOTM was pretty much the exception.
Batman Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Just can't see how we can keep them both being in the best 11 in the country No chance
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Do you think he would have been picked for the senior England team because of "hype"? Well yeah, that's usually how it's worked over the last 15 years tbh.
St. Neil Posted 27 April, 2014 Author Posted 27 April, 2014 Is this on TV anywhere? Not live tonight, but I think its on BT Sports tomorrow.
The Kraken Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Whats that got to do with anything Trenty? Would be surprised if many LBs anywhere win MOTMs. Clyne got MOTM yesterday, so perfectly feasible for a full back.
ottery st mary Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 It means he's rarely had an outstanding game let alone season if you don't take into account his age. Now I know you do not watch football...let alone watch the mighty Saints. :mcinnes: Well done Shaw and Lallana.:)
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 I can only remember one bad game and that was Cardiff two weeks ago. For his age he pretty remarkable. Bale is probably the only other player who looked better at his age and that was not in the Prem.
shurlock Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Clyne got MOTM yesterday, so perfectly feasible for a full back. Not on here he didnt Dont disagree - see post 36 but IMO there's a bias against the position when these polls are done.
The Kraken Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Just can't see how we can keep them both being in the best 11 in the country No chance Yep, going to be extremely tough. The argument for keeping Shaw was that he may not get game time at a big club. He'd clearly walk into any side in the top 4 now, he's come on an absolutely huge amount this season. And Lallana is just genuinely top quality. Keeping either of them will be a massive statement.
Saint Charlie Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 http://www1.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/9286989/shaw-happy-at-southampton
Leicestersaint Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Shaw has had a wonderful season - I have really enjoyed watching him. He has been outstanding in defence and attack and I am not surprised he has been chosen by his fellow professionals ahead of Baines and anyone else. He has the potential to become a real world beater, just like Bale.
The Kraken Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Not on here he didnt Dont disagree - see post 36 but IMO there's a bias against the position when these polls are done. what do SWF posters know?! He got it from Micky Owen as the commentator on BT. edit, just read post 36....
Batman Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Yep, going to be extremely tough. The argument for keeping Shaw was that he may not get game time at a big club. He'd clearly walk into any side in the top 4 now, he's come on an absolutely huge amount this season. And Lallana is just genuinely top quality. Keeping either of them will be a massive statement. They are both with Coleman (probably) the lowest paid players in that team.... By some distance I should guess
Pastor Patrón Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 But he's not in competition with players in other positions to get into the PFA team. He's up against other LBs. As I say, LB is hardly the most influential position -say compared to attacking players, so its no surprise it doesnt attract much attention. Clyne's MOTM was pretty much the exception. Must just be against weak competition I guess, I never watch other teams games so wouldn't really know. I think it's easy for them to impress in our system though, if Shaw learnt how to cross he'd be a beast.
stevegrant Posted 27 April, 2014 Posted 27 April, 2014 Surprised Kompany is in there, don't think he's been anything special this season.
