Thierry Henry is again among the nominees for the Players' Player of the Year award at the PFA's annual awards dinner at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Sunday, April 25. But last year's winner faces immense competition from the other five nominees, Steven Gerrard, Alan Shearer, Frank Lampard, Jay-Jay Okocha and Henry's Arsenal team-mate Patrick Vieira.
PLAYERS' PLAYER OF THE YEAR (in alphabetical order)
Steven Gerrard (Liverpool): The PFA Young Player of the Year in 2001, Gerrard has continued to grow in stature and has been Liverpool's outstanding performer this season.
Thierry Henry (Arsenal): Henry has now been nominated for the fourth year in a row and deservedly so, his goals and assists more essential to Arsenal than ever.
Frank Lampard (Chelsea): One of the most consistent performers in the Premiership, and one of the few players in Chelsea's star-studded squad to command a regular first team place.
Jay-Jay Okocha (Bolton): The Nigerian international has become a cult figure at the Reebok - especially after putting club before country before the African Nations Cup earlier this year.
Alan Shearer (Newcastle United): The former England skipper continues to benefit from his international retirement, as do Champions League chasing Newcastle.
Patrick Vieira (Arsenal): Team-mate and fellow countryman Thierry Henry may grab most of the headlines, but no-one under-estimates the contribution of skipper Vieira to Arsenal's success.

Henry still deserves the award as he's been the outstanding player this season.

Nobody quite like Henry this season... more than 40 goals and around 10-15 assists to... Arsenal aren't the same without him.

I voted for an Englishman ...Yes, Englishmen are LOVELY I refuse to vote for Henry. It's true he's talented blah blah...but he's very pretentious besides he has enough votes so far & he'll win the premiership...so it's more than enough

Bah, if only Henry hadn't been in such outstanding form this season then I think Frank would probably be picking up the award. As it is Henry will win it hands down I expect. And as much as it pains me to say it and as brilliant as Lamps has been for us this season I think i'd have to vote for Thierry too...

Yeah, Lampard and Shearer have been the next two after Henry. Imagine them in the same team

Henry deserves to win it this year, I don't think I've seen any player as good as him in any season since the Premiership started. That includes Mr Shearer!
I hope he gets the best player in the world award too. I think he's been outstanding!
