Notable saves. Manchester city’s Calvos tevez and Silva’s goal attempts enabling a 3-2 win by united.

Pablo Zabaleta (Manchester city)

Facing a lot of competition from the likes of Kyle Walker(Spurs), Rafael (United), Glen Johnson(Liverpool) Zabaleta although having the his fewest appearances in a season for city was unquestionably one of City’s best players in view of his continued performance consistency.

Jan Vertonghen(Totenham)

After winning March’s player of the month for succesive exceptional performances the spurs defender bound to be on the team of the year. He has also proved to be a contributor to spurs goals this season minus his defensive ability.

Rio Ferdinard(Manchester United)

Leighton Baines (Everton)

The list complies of the 11 best but others come close and should arguably be included.

Santi Carzola (Arsenal) who had a hell of a first beating the cliché of international players suffering in their first seasons. So did Michu(Swansea) who was bought for only £2.2m scoring 17 goals also in his debut season.
