Tony Cascarino has named his Premier League Team of the Year, and it features NO Manchester United or Arsenal players.The talkSPORT host and pundit was challenged to make his XI on the Weekend Sports Breakfast, as we looked ahead to Sundays title finale.But, after the much-criticised PFA TOTY featured just one player who does not play for title rivals Manchester City or Liverpool Man Uniteds Paul Pogba, and even that wasnt a popular choice Casc was told he could only pick one player per team.
3Tony Cascarino’s Premier League Team of the Year
3Salomon Rondon over Alexandre Lacazette?
Lacazette has been better than Aubameyang over the season, hes become a far better player for Arsenal and he was the only other one I was thinking about.But Rondons impact at Newcastle has been one of the main reasons why they stayed up. He turned up from West Brom inured in the summer and he didnt quite get going in his first ten games, but from that moment, to a man, I cant think or a more important player at any club. The way he led the line for them, I just had to go for him.No Sterling?
With Liverpool you could have picked Van Dijk, Wijnaldum, Robertson, but Mane was the one I kept going back to and thought, how many games has he changed over the season? Thats why I put him in.Hazard is obvious, I dont think theres any other Chelsea player.With Bernando Silva, again its so tricky because there are four of five players for Man City I could name Laporte, Sterling, Ederson but I just thought Silva, for me, has been a tenacious goalscorer and creator and he stepped up to a much better level.
3Sissoko over Eriksen from Spurs?
With Sissoko, eyebrows were raised when Tottenhamn paid 30m for him, but he’s just got better and better for Spurs this season. He and Wijnaldum were in the Newcastle team that got relegated it was great business to sign them from Tottenham and Liverpool.Moutinho, I cant believe Wolves managed to bring him into the club for 5m. Hes a Champions League-quality player! He creates, he runs that midfield with his passing and I think it was one of the best transfers that has been made in this country, bringing in a player of that international stature.Those two in midfield have been real standouts in that position.No place for Player of the Year Van Dijk?
I totally respect that Van Dijk can be the centre-half, but were talking about the highest level in three or four positions.Mane was the one I kept going back to from Liverpool. At the start of the season, Salah was the one who took all the headlines but this year Mane has done that more often than any other forward, in a sensational season for Liverpool offensively.View this post on Instagram What an amazing evening at the PFA awards last night. I am so proud and honoured to have won such a prestigious award and feel incredibly humbled to have been recognised by my fellow professionals in this way. As I mentioned last night when I received the award there are a few people I would like to thank. Firstly and most importantly thank you to my family for always being there to support me. Thank you to everyone at FC Groningen, Celtic FC and Southampton FC for being such a crucial part of my journey and development as a player. This of course would not have been possible without the unbelievable support I have from everyone at Liverpool FC. A special thank you to the manager for showing the belief in me and to all of my teammates who help me so much in every game on the pitch. This award is for you. And of course thank you to our amazing fans for the support since Ive been at Anfield. I love this club and have felt part of the family since the day I arrived. It was a privilege to have been there last night too to share it with Sadio, Robbo and Trent, congratulations on your trophies too Now time to focus on Wednesday night. See you in Barcelona. Well be ready #YNWA A post shared by Virgil van Dijk (@virgilvandijk) on

Im sorry, I cant have any Manchester United players. Defensively theyve been awful and recently going forward they have as well, so it was very, very hard to pick one of them.

It actually is a fairly risky move for both parties to offer such a high wage. If it doesn't work out Ramsey will be rotting on the bench and Juve are stuck with a huge wage bill. There's no way anyone will offer him a higher salary and he's not going to want to leave to get paid half. That's exactly what happened to Ben Arfa at PSG.
