Who will come 5th (as above)

These things are already known before the season began man LOL

The divide between the top 5/6 and the rest is so huge you know who they are already it's a case of what order it will be in.

How soon you've forgotten Leicester.In the championship in 2013/14 to winning the PL in 2015/16. We just need more of that kind of thing next season. Smile

Left back is probably the one position in which you don't have an obvious pick. If Robertson had been a regular from the start, he'd probably be picked.

Looking at the remaining fixtures, Southampton have two fixtures you say they could win Swansea and perhaps Leicester/Everton.

again looking at remaining fixtures Huddersfield have a terrible run in Chelsea, Everton,Man City, Arsenal. They really need to win one of those or they could be in serious trouble if they don't and Southampton and Stoke pick up points in the remaining 4 games.

They should have crowbarred Sané in there instead of Alonso. Sure he played wing back for City at some point this season anyway!

He should have been in ahead of Aguero alright, sympathy pick after missing out the past few years.

I wouldn't have Eriksen in the team. I thought his form in the majority of the first half of the season was below par tbh (apart from at the Aviva annoyingly!)
 
I probably wouldn't have Aguero in there either and think it is a bit of a sympathy vote, despite him having a good season overall. He's had a few spells out through injury though and wasn't always first choice.
I think Sterling and Sane should be on the team.

For the last 2 months Eriksen has been excellent but was below that level of performance for the majority of the season prior to then.

I'd have Mane ahead of Sterling.
 
Not sure about Otamendi either.
 
The rest seem fine.

Argument for Firmino to be in there tu.

Good shout. Has an outrageously good work ethic and really links the play together so well for Liverpool. Added more goals to his game this season too. I'd nearly have him there ahead of Kane and Aguero alright, who give very little outside their admittedly excellent strike rates.

Firmino has been brilliant, but the striker positions usually go to those who have most goals. Lukaku made the team last year.
Spurs having 3 players in the team compared to Liverpool's 1 seems a bit wrong.
