My Premier league Team of The Year

Here is my Premier League XI for the 2012/13 season. Please keep in mind that this is my opinion.

Goalkeeper: David De Gea | Manchester United
What a season his had. After been heavily criticised last season, De Gea seems to have finally stepped up to his price tag. He is, by no means, the kind of player that Edwin van der Sar was in his prime, nor anywhere close to Peter Schmeichel, but this season he’s been a cut above the rest.

Left-back: Leighton Baines | Everton
Evertons most consistent player,  He is the kind of left-back that any team would be lucky to have: his work rate is phenomenal and his ability follows suit. He assisted greatly in Evertons persuit of European football.

Centre-back: Jan Vertonghen | Tottenham
Vertonghen has been outstanding, supplying goals as well as defensively being a rock.

Centre-back: Ashley Williams | Swansea
Amazing that in 2008 he was playing in League Two. Williams has been very solid in Swanseas defense this season, His blocks, clearances and interceptions top the charts.

Right-back: Pablo Zabaleta | Manchester City
Zabaleta has been City’s star player this season, and ofcourse the best Right back in the league. He's been very consistent for City.

Left-wing: Gareth Bale | Tottenham
PFA Player of the Year, PFA Young Player of the Year, he’s won games
single-handedly this season and carried Tottenham - on his own at times - to fifth place. Who knows where Spurs would have been  without him.

Centre-midfielder: Michael Carrick| Man utd
An outstanding player this season, very influential team player who knows how to read games. He's been underrated alot but this season everyone agreed that he's definatley one the best midfielders in England.

Centre-midfielder: Santi Cazorla |
Arsenal
Arsenal’s stand out player this season. Santi Cazorla has been a breath of fresh air, bringing some exciting Spanish skills to Arsenal and the league. Also great with both feet.

Right-wing: Juan Mata | Chelsea
Chelseas best player and one of the best in the league, Juan Mata played a major part in helping Chelsea get a spot in next years Champions league.

Striker: Luis Suarez | Liverpool
Suarez would have been the player of the season had it not been for the bite incident. His playing ability makes him one of the best and trickiest forwards in the Epl. Helped put liverpools season back on track with some amazing performances.

Striker: Robin van Persie | Manchester United
He left Arsenal to win a trophy - and did just that. Immediately. When he shoots he scores. Golden boot winner this season (and last season). What more can I say?

Manager: Sir Alex Ferguson | Manchester United
The best manager England has ever seen. Managing to knock liverpool off their perch and win Man utds 20th league title. What he's done for Man utd has been trully amazing.

Substitutes' bench:

Michu | Swansea
£2m was all he costed yet he managed to set the Premier League this season with his 18 goals and two assists. Absolute bargain, expect his price to triple.

Christian Benteke | Aston Villa
Had a fantastic debut season for Villa, he carried them in most games with his great scoring and dribbling ability

Luke Shaw | Southampton
One of the best breakthrough stars the league saw this season and only 18yrs old, Shaw was definately amongst the best left backs we saw this season and makes my bench.

Rafael | Man utd
Had his best season for united, he's been outstanding in defense as well as in attack.

Asmir Begovic | Stoke City
He’s been amazing between the sticks for Stoke. One of the best goalkeepers in the epl, He really helped in making Stokes defense really tight.

Other players who could be on the bench
- Steven Gerrard
- Eden Hazard
- Theo Walcott
- Romelu Lukaku
- Rio ferdinand
- Daniel Agger
- Dempsey
- Yaya Toure
