Favourite Wayne Rooney has lifted the Professional Footballers Association Player of the Year trophy.
The Manchester United and England striker, 24, who has been in blistering form this season, has twice been Young Player of the Year.
He is the first England player to win the award since Steven Gerrard in 2006 and beat off competition from Chelsea striker Didier Drogba, Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas and Manchester City forward Carlos Tevez.
The Young Player of the Year award went to Aston Villa and England midfielder James Milner.
Rooney said: “It's a great feeling to win because it's voted for by the players. It's a great honour and I'm really proud.”
Premier League Team of the Year: Hart (Birmingham), Ivanovic (Chelsea), Vermaelen (Arsenal), Dunne (Aston Villa), Evra (Manchester United), Fábregas (Arsenal), Milner (Aston Villa), Fletcher, Valencia, Rooney (all United), Drogba (Chelsea).

i think wayne rooney really deserved the Professional Footballers Association Player of the Year trophy because in my eyes he is the best player in the premier league as he has scored the most goals out of all the players (joint first with drogba).
