Wayne Rooney declared this season as the best of his career after winning the PFA Player of the Year award.
Rooney beat Carlos Tevez, Cesc Fabregas and Didier Drogba to lift the trophy on Sunday night.
In an interview with manutd.com after the ceremonty Rooney said: "I've scored a lot of goals this season and I think overall my play has been good. It's definitely been my most prolific season in front of goal and I'm pleased with the way things have gone."
"But it would complete it all if we could clinch the title."
Asked about the players he voted for, the striker revealed: " I voted for Didier Drogba for the senior award and Cesc Fabregas for young player" [won by Aston Villa's James Milner].
"To be honest, I was very surprised I was up for the young player award too - I think I won it about eight years ago, didn't I? So I was a bit shocked to be up for it again this year."
Rooney also acknowledged the crucial role played by Antonio Valencia in contributing to his astounding goals tally.
"Of course, as a forward player you rely on the support and service of your team-mates. Without the support of people like Antonio, I wouldn't be scoring goals. A lot of what I think I've achieved personally this season is down to that," he said.
"He's [Valencia is] very physical, he's quick and a strong player. He's scored a few goals himself this season and he has the ability to create goals with his movement and his crossing, which obviously I've benefited from."
"He reminds me a lot of Andrei Kanchelskis who was here a few years ago. They're both very traditional wingers, and I like that. Antonio has settled in very quickly and he's had a good first year at the club which hopefully he can build on."
