1st Half best XI

The MVP holds off the LVP

GK - Krul/Vorm - These 2 + Stecklenberg and Holland have a surfeit of keepers going forward

RB - Richards - The EPL's answer to Marshawn Lynch. This man is just a beast, a man's man.

CB - V. Kompany - If there's a better center back in the world right now, I'd like to see him.

CB - Coloccini - One of the many vastly improved parts of Pardew's formidible Newcastle.

LB - Jose Enrique - Not as pacy as the typical Prem LB that we've grown accustomed, but boy is he comfortable on the ball.

LM - David Silva - Cooled off since his ridiculous start, still vital to City's success.

CM - Scott Parker - He'd be the first name on my team sheet if I were Fabio Capello right now.

CM - Ramires - Lots of choices here, but it's hard not to like the plucky Brazilian, high ceiling.

RM - Mata - Adds a different dimension to the typically dull Chelsea.

ST - Van Persie - Arsenal suffered without Fabregas, but losing Van Persie is unthinkable for the Gunners.

ST - Louie Suarez/ Sergio Aguero - Take your pick between these two new arrivals, both have had no problems adjusting. Only their teams are headed in opposite directions.

Just Missed: Friedel, Walker, Phil Jones, Vermaalen, Baines, Sinclair, Lucas, Song, Moses, Adebayor, Walters

completely agree w/ the starting lineup but how Moses is on the barely missed list over BA is a travesty to say the least....great comments as well.

and wheres Bale and Modric???

Ba should be in, don't know why I didn't put him over Adebayor. Modric is still nowhere near last season, and Bale is almost too good to include in any XI
