It's not very original, i was inspired by the site of the Guardian, but here they are. The 11-12 season awards for both the EPL and the rest of Europe.

Best player: Robin Van Persie (Clint Dempsey) and for the rest of Europe: it would have be Ronaldo or Messi. Since Real Madrid has won La Liga: Ronaldo.

Best team: Manchester City and Juventus.

Biggest surprise: Swansea and Montpellier.

Biggest disappointment: Liverpool and Villareal.

Best match: (unfortunately) Arsenal - Spurs and the Euro League final: Atletico Madrid - Athletic de Bilbao (special honours for all the home matches of Napoli in the CL).

Young player: Walcott and Belhanda

Goal of the season: a particular Swansea goal that was the result of more than 15 beautifull passes - Falcao's first goal in the Euro League final.

Manager of the year: Brendan Rogers or Alan Pardew - Antonio Conte.

Gripe: diving and the way referees are blamed.

Soap of the season: Suarez-Evra and Zamparini and Palermo.

Favourite for Euro 2012: Germany (who else).

Best GK: Cech and Casillas

Best young GK: De Gea and Courtois (this category because there had to be one Belgian player to get an award)

Gerd no Ronaldo this year, even with La Liga victory.. Messi broke all possible records I think he was the best, besides that he scored in every trophy Barca won this year, Super Cup against Real, against Porto and against Santos.. 72 goals!!! 100 points total! Amazing..

Before this season I was hoping I will see following champions:

Dortmund, Barcelona, Juventus, Manchester City, Montpellier, Porto, Zenit

Pretty crazy that only Barcelona lost.. who would have thought that :(

CL Final will be boring, so Im waiting for EURO :)
