1. 
Fredy Montero, 14

more selections after the jump:

2. Andy Najar, 11
3. Tim Ream, 4
4. Michael Stephens, 3

1. Alvaro Saborio, 20

T2. Jimmy Nielsen and Joel Lindpere, 7

2. Bobby Convey, 10
3. Kevin Hartman, 6
4. Bouna Coundoul, 5
5. Chris Albright, 3
6. Dan Gargan, 2

I agree with the vast majority of the selections but I did have Jason just ahead of everyone else in the coach of the year voting, and I also had Olave at the top of the defenders listing.  Gonzalez is good but with out Gregg Berhalter next too him we have seen the LA defense crumbling in the last 7 MLS matches 2-4-1.

So what are your thoughts and who would you have voted for?
