Ronney Wins The PFA Awards


Rooney Continued United Dominance

For the fourth year in thre row United players had won the Professional Footballers' Association awards. Ronadlo made it twice for 2006/07 and 2007/08 seasons. Then followed by Ryan Giggs in 2008/09. And this season the award belong to Wayne Rooney. Rooney who now nursing his injury would be fit for the world cup, revealed that his vote went to Didier Drogba. Well most Chelski fans would agree that Drogba should be the winner.

As of April 15th:

Rooney: 2472 minutes played, 26 goals and 5 assists
Drogba: 2411 minutes played, 25 goals and 11 assists
 
Look at it  Drogba might be the much deserved winner. More over he was at Africa Cup of Nations for almost one month. Maybe he could score more goals from Rooney if he was at Chelski. James Milner who won the PFA Young Player of the Year Award was little bit shocked for me. Although he had showed a string of strong performances to help Villa this season, I believed Cesc Febragas is much deserved winner. What can I say about Febregas performance this season. He is world class player. Maybe they wanted British to win.
