No Darren Ben... only joking.[LNB]The action this weekend showed the PFA Team of the Year, announced late last night, exactly what it is missing.[LNB] The joy of Cesc: Arsenal captain Fabregas dribbles past Middlesbrough goalkeeper Brad Jones to score the Gunners' second[LNB]        HAVE YOUR SAY...     Do you agree with the PFA Premier League Team of the Year? Sportsmail think they can pick a Premier League XI to beat the PFA's select side. Do you think that the PFA team contains the best players from the top tier this season? Or are there a few glaring omissions?
