Always going to happen. Give a feck personally.
Four out of ten are ours though. Now that I do like.

What was it 50 goals last season?
Hard to argue against him.

Yeah, not surprised Messi got it(if this is accurate), but 4 of the top 6 is impressive, it is a little odd that City have none, considering they won the league ahead of us.
Ronaldo ahead of Sadio ?! Bollocks.
I'm not surprised there are no Citeh players there. Its voted for by journalists, coaches and captains from across Europe, so most of the opinions will be formed in the CL. We've had two finals in two years and the best comeback since Istanbul and they've done absolutely fuck all of note
Jesus Christ Dreamy. I know that being the “highly evolved” “fan” is part of your internet ”persona” but it’s as fucking boring as Modo banging on about Henderson and Lallana. Being a fan is partly about being irrational too - so fuck off with your “hard to argue against him”. He’s a twat and Van Dijk should get it.
Four out of the top 6. It should have been at least 8 of the 10, but no way they'd hsce allowed that.
It's not hard to argue for him if you make the same fucking point every time it's brought up.
Also, hard to forget, was at his very best when his team needed him most at Anfield ...
But it is hard to argue. Wasn't it 50 goals last season?
It’s not part of my internet persona. It’s my opinion. I love VVD and it’s wonderful to finally have a CB some fans used to argue Agger etc was as good as.
But arguing against a player scoring 50 goals in a top side who won their league and only lost the CL because of the greatest come back ever is a bit silly.
He’s not Roy of the Rovers. He scored a screamer in the away leg and would have finished the tie only for the selfishness of teammates
There's a long post/thread in this somewhere... I think De Ligt is the latest footballer to thrive off a manufactured reputation rather than his actual performances on the pitch. Similar to the likes of Pogba, Quaresma, Balotelli. I think Mino Raiola was the agent of all them, too.
I'm not quite sure how it works yet, but he's definitely done a great job of getting his clients higher up the chain than their abilities should ordinarily allow.
Look at Pogba. He's shite. Yet, people will argue he's world class. He's a huge name. He is highly rated on video games, always in the discussion for individual awards. Kids love him. He'll move for north of £100m. But just watch him. He's rubbish.
The same is happening with De Ligt. He's shit.
Considering he only won one trophy, in a league where his primary rival was at the weakest since they acquired Ronaldo, they had ample time and a favorable scoreline to do the necessary.
Messi, who everyone knew was desperate to win another CL and this *was* the goal of their season, didn't ... Blame the teammates, whatever you want.
3 of the players of the top 6 came to play that game.
1 couldn't because of injury.
1 couldn't even help his team get one goal ... Oh well, enjoy his trophy.
His numbers are insane it’s as simple as that. If Salah scored 50 and won the league this year and next best was miles behind I wouldn’t say it was easy.
I don't think he can be branded shit. He is a young lad, captaining Ajax, who was cracking in CL last season while he contributed with some goals from CD. He was also part of that Dutch team that had a real impressive season. I don't say it justifies a top 10 in this ranking, but he definately has been a vital part of a good side and international team over the year.
VVD should have won this. I know it is "hard to argue" about Messi and his 50 odd goals. But 2019 VVD has been a star both for club and country. This all thing is a little political though, and Messi hasn't won this thing for 3 or 4 years now, so maybe that plays a part.
La Liga! Whoopie ... How many did Ronaldo score in real league? ;-)
They're also all time CL top scorers by some considerable distance.
I don't know about last season specifically or what this award is meant to be about... but... if it's meant to honour the best player then Messi should win it every year.
Ha ha.
