Technically this is the FWA player of the year award. Although, its very likely Henderson will also win the PFA player of the year award.
Why? De Bruyne was clearly the best player of the season.It had to be a Liverpool player since they won the league by a stretch. Imo TAA should have got it.
Just like the England manager thenEven from his own team you would surely pick Van Dijk, Mane, Alexander-Arnold and Salah over him. The football writers are quite jingoistic though, they picked Vardy in 2016 over Kante and Mahrez and picked Parker in 2011 despite him getting relegated and not being that good.
City won the league at a canter in 17/18 with record points, goals etc and Salah won POTYIt had to be a Liverpool player since they won the league by a stretch. Imo TAA should have got it.
Hard not to agree with this. I can see why he's been given it really.Henderson’s had a fantastic season, but this is a bit of a sentimental award based on him being British, him going from being deemed not good enough by many to captain and an integral part of a team that just won the PL for the first time in 30 years.
2 seasons ago.. Salah won player of the year when CIty won the title by a stretch too.It had to be a Liverpool player since they won the league by a stretch. Imo TAA should have got it.
Fixed.There is an 'e' missing in the thread title.
And yes I do feel it was worth pointing out.
I won't even name Henderson top 3 in LiverpoolHard not to agree with this. I can see why he's been given it really.
I would've had Van Dijk or Mane ahead of him personally. I think overall Kevin De Bruyne has been one of the standout players in the league, but it's hard to justify giving it to a Man City player when Liverpool ran away with it this season, even though I personally would consider him for it.
Fixed.
Appreciated, thanks.Fixed.
