My Premier League XI of the season so far - and who gets my Player of the Year vote

In normal circumstances, the Professional Footballers’ Association would now be selecting its team of the season and the votes cast for Player of the Year. With football paused, we may be several months away from the official selection, but in the meantime - albeit ten games remain of the 2019-20 campaign for some teams - I can at least submit what I consider the best XI up until this point. It will come as no surprise it is dominated by Liverpool players. Twenty-five points clear at the top of the Premier League, I hope my choices will be considered more logical than partisan. And I reserve the right to change my mind if there is a dramatic twist if - or when - the season concludes. In the meantime, here is my starting XI. Goalkeeper Dean Henderson, Sheffield United In a starting XI packed with the league leaders, I can imagine I have upset Liverpool supporters by failing to select Alisson Becker. He is the best goalkeeper in the world and in normal circumstances would be straight in. But I am basing my judgement on a season in which he has only played just over half Liverpool’s games in all competitions due to injury.
