Liverpool captain
Steven Gerrard can't believe
Chelsea's Frank Lampard was
ignored for this season's Player of the Year gongs.
Gerrard, who had an outstanding season himself, was honoured his
efforts were rewarded, but can't believe Lampard was snubbed.
He said: "I was fully aware of the competition from Frank and
surprised he seemed to be forgotten. He has had a great season and
is such a consistent player. To get the nod above Frank and the
others was a fantastic feeling.
"I felt the way he's been playing he would have been worthy of
at least getting in the PFA team of the year. He is a fantastic
player and he proves it by scoring 20 plus, year in year out. He is
setting the standards for all the other players."
