Last updated : 14 April 2006 By Al Campbell

The PFA nominations were announced this week and Sissoko, who has had a fantastic debut season in the Premiership was a suprise omission. The decision certainly puzzled the man who brought him to Liverpool from Valencia last Summer.

"I don't understand. Prehaps they think he is not 21 but 30. I'm sure anybody who has played against him would say he is one of the best." said Rafael Benitez.
