PFA Award

He's done it again, Ronaldo boy. For 2nd year in succession, Cristiano Ronaldo is named PFA Player of The Year award. He won the award after beating his close rival Fabregas and Adebayor (Arsenal), Gerrard and Torres (Liverpool) and David James (Portsmouth). This is the 2nd time a player winning the award in 2 successive years after Henry did in 2003-2004. His form has been irrepressible for most parts of this season, scoring 38 goals in all competition, including one of the most creative, fancy goal in their 4-0 victory against Aston Villa. Now Man Utd is still on course for a double (Premier League and Champions League), should he be able to keep his form high in the rest of the remaining matches, then the EPL title will be theirs again, and the UCL trophy will return to Old Trafford for the 3rd times.

Talk about the award, he humbly (lol) gives tribute to his teammate for his achievement, and as usual, his typical comment as seen in many of his post-match interview. Quoting him; "I feel very happy. When you work all season to play good, to do something for the team, to do your contribution for the team and then at the end of the season the PFA give you this award, it is a great moment, it is an honour, a pleasure. It is a great motivation to carry on like that, to work more and get better. I feel very good but it is not just my award, my team-mates have helped me a lot this season. They give me good passes to score goals - and I score - but it is a good moment for me".
