Stevie G named PFA Player of the Year!
-
Steven Gerrard has capped another brilliant season at Anfield by being named the PFA Player of the Year by his fellow professionals.
At a gala ceremony in London's Grosvenor House Hotel this evening, the Liverpool captain beat off competition from Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard, Thierry Henry, John Terry and Joe Cole to land the top honour.
The award finishes off a sensational weekend for Gerrard after he helped Liverpool into the FA Cup final with an excellent display against Chelsea yesterday.
With 19 goals to his name, Gerrard currently sits at the top of the goalscoring charts at Anfield and has played an inspirational role in the Reds' securing Champions League football for next season with three games to spare.
Manchester United's Wayne Rooney won the Young Player of the Year award. -
Holy cow of a fucking shit!!!!
He won it!!!!!
-
he deserved it right! we wun be kings of europe last season without him...
-
he deserve it for the commitment on the field n to the club...
-
aye..i think it was quite impossible for rooney to win both i guess..
-
I'm quite surprised that he won it.
John Terry (so reliable and consistent at the heart of the Chelsea defence) and Frank Lampard ( Top scoring midfielder in the EPL with another milestone season) certainly looked more likely to win it.
Nevertheless, Steven Gerrard, as always has played a pivoted role in Liverpool's campaign this season. Top scorer for the club and the inspired captain marvel of the team. Based on that itself, Steven G deserves the award no less than Terry or Lampard.
Congratulations! -
Not a surprised ! He'll eventually will win it .
He merely lost to Chelseal's Lampard cos Lampard won the Premiership single-handedly last season .
Being runner-up to Lampard quite a number of times , this one a good , encouraging consolation . -
not a surprise considering gerrard had given thierry henry two free back-pass goals.
