THE PFA First Division team would be full of Wanderers players instead of devoid of them, if Sam Allardyce had his way.
The Wanderers boss admitted both he and his chairman Phil Gartside were "shocked" by the total absence of their players in the team which is voted for by fellow professionals.
The side was made up of Fulham and Blackburn players plus one from Birmingham and Allardyce said: "Considering we have been in the top two or three since December and never out of the top six I would have expected for a player or two to have got into the side.
"We deserved at least one player if not more. Perhaps when the voting slips came round we were not playing as well as we had been. But if I had my way every one of my players would have been in the side."
