Premiership team of the year.

With the premiership title decided and the season finishing this Sunday, I thought that I would give my view on the team of the season.

Goalkeeper: Petr Cech
Despite his near life and career threatening injury Petr has come back and proved why he is known as the best Goalkeeper in the world. You can't deny that Chelsea Suffered badly while he was injured and that just proved to the world what an important force he is to have at the back.

Center back(1): Nmanja Vidic
After a shaky start to life in the premiership last season Nmanja has adapted really well to life in the premiership. People shouldn't underestimate the accomplishments of the Man Utd defence this year, which was one of their biggest weaknesses over the past couple of seasons. His partnership with Rio has been solid and the two defenders compliment each other. Nmanja's performances have contributed to Utd having one of the best defence record in the league this season.

Centreback(2): Ricardo Carvalio
Has Been the most consistent defender this season for chelsea and far better than the over hyped John Terry.

Right Back: Steve Finnan
Great defender with one of the highest assist records in the premiership

Left back: Mathew Taylor
Not known for his prolific defensive qualities. Mathew has scored some of the goals of the season this year and thats why he's in the team

Midfield: Michael Essien
One of chelsea's most underated but best players. While Frank Lampard gets all the attention for all the goals he scores, the only reason he gets to is because of this powerhouse in midfield working away and being the centre point of the chelsea team. Not partial to the odd spectacular goal or two

Midfield: Paul Scholes
Exceptional this year and perhaps the difference between manchester United winning and losing the title this season. Not perhaps always in the game but knows when to turn up when it counts. At 33 people felt that Paul was perhaps past it, But hes has proved them wrong on countless occasions this season.

Midfield Right: Christano Ronaldo
despite what peoples views are whether or not he is the best player in the world. You can't deny what an amazing season he has and how he has progressed into a more fullfilling player. Impossible to leave our of the team of the year.

Midfield Left: Mikeal Arteta
tough decsion but for what he has done for everton and by far their best player

Centre Forward: Didier Drogba
Has proved the 27 million price tag as he has powered himself to the top the goalscoring charts this season

centre forward: Dimiter Berbatov
At first glance he looked like an other overrated and overvalued player that tottenham had once again brought in but has proved most people wrong with his outstanding displays and his prolific goal scoring this season.

Vidic isn't fit to tie up Carra's boots

Should there be a Salary Cap in Football?
Personally I think there should be! It’s just getting to be stupid money in football at the top of the premiership!
It’s always the same teams at the top proving that football success is based purely on money which ruins the idea of it being a sport! They’ve done it in rugby, basketball, hockey and American football and it makes the sports more competitive and better to watch!
I do a little Online Spread Betting from time to time and most matches don’t hold much surprise who is going to win, its boring! I want to see a team at the bottom pulling off an amazing season beating last seasons winners in a close fought battle!
Make things fair! It shouldn’t be about money!
