Krul definitely deserves to be in there, he has been Newcastle's stand out player. But I wouldn't pick anyone else from that side.
Thats not to say other players haven't shone at various points in time, such as Ben Arfa against us last week, but Krul has been the most consistent.
The other thing I will say about Newcastle is that their success this season has been based on them being a good "team", rather than because of the form of any one individual within that side.
Even someone like Silva shouldn't be on the list - stopped playing football in January.
For me, I would say Kompany or RVP
So Kyle Walker, a fullback that can't defend or cross is up for nomination for YPOTY
You can't make this up.
Why on earth are Johnny Evans and Scott Sinclaire, Cabaye in there?
Sinclair is rubbish Faran, rightfully nowhere near the list
Swansea have about 5/6 players that have been better than Sinclair

oh and danny welbeck is poor, he only looks good as he plays up top with rooney, he misses so many chances, 2 goals from 14 games is hardly the stats of one of the EPL's best strikers
Aguero has missed lots of sitters this season and is older than Welbeck, this means by your logic Aguero is poor and should be playing in League One.
Richards, Kompany and Yaya belong on those lists but Hart, along with Wellbeck and Oxlade-Chamberlain don't.
aguero has 28 goals to welbecks 11?
prem goals assists
aguero 21 8
welbeck 8 3
the stats dont lie
Wellbeck against aguero? seriously that is a rediculous argument.
It's no argument at all.
Remember these were voted for by the players in January, so don't take the last 3 months into consideration.
Parker was brilliant up until the new year....
how about victor moses?
at arsenal
how can anybody claim there should be some swansea players on this list? yes swansea have done incredibly well this season however it is ridiculous to say any of their players are among the best 6 in the league.

You clearly haven't watched Joe Allen this season. One of the best young players in the league, if he was English the media would be creaming themselves over him.
Allen is very good. But Britton is the English one so he gets the plaudits for passing backwards and sideways. Allen is the catalyst in that midfield two. McEachran should start ahead of Britton but I'd say that anyway

So was Silva.
If Wigan stay up then after this weeks results Martinez should get recognised as a good manager.
Boris "Inky" Gibson (U5901)
I agree, but the main player getting grief was Parker. He must be horrible to play against, so you can see why players vote for him.
Up until new year, Silva, Aguero, RVP were all very good. All have tailed off as the season has gone on though.
Clinton Dempsey & I think sessignon?? Has been fantastic

Completely agree TBK, Britton is overrated. The work of Allen and more recently Sigurdsson makes him look much better than he is. He has ZERO goals and assists in the league this season and has only had 3 shots.
