How Lalkovic is on there I will never know.....

Hope courtois wins it.

Future world class players from that list will be: Sterling, Isco, Veratti, Pogba, Varane, Gotze, Coutinho, Sharaawy

Tough one but Isco or El sha should get it. They're currently making a big impression in Major leagues.

Pogba hasn't had enough playing time yet to win this.

Alaba

Why no Jack? so what he missed a season or 2.

What's this for?

The best young player?

Alaba or Courtois should win this.

Gotze.

Should go to the player who has the biggest influence on him team and who had the most consistent season: Alaba, Isco, El Shaarawy, Courtois,Xhaka,Munian.

Sadly Götze had an injury ravaged season, while Veratti needs a bit more time in PSG but he looks like a total steal for them.

Courtois is so overrated...

Alabas last season was too insane to ignore IMHO, especially since he showed up in some high profile matches. That list has it's fair share of quality though.

Noone watches Bundesliga to back up your claim Im afraid. Got destroyed against Neverkusen btw.

Well, Mario Götze won the award last year, so some people seem to have watched the Bundesliga. ^^

sterling gets my vote. or el shaawalry

No love for the OX anymore? I am not going to be bias, he obviously hasn't had better year compared to some of the names in the last. That said, he will still end up being world class . ALSO I am surprised to see Coquelin not make the list. I thought It wasn't just Arsenal fans that rate him.

What are the odds a defensive player will win this award? 1/50? I see Gotze getting it again tbh.

Stephan El Shaarawy should win it IMO

No James Rodriguez?
What's the age limit?

co-sign, this kid is something special.

Me

But in all seriousness SES should get it, has been absolutley astonishing at Milan

SES should have it without a doubt. Carrying a 7 time Champions League winning team on his back. The creative, goalscoring (highest goals in the Serie A so far) and leading presence for Milan and isn't even 20 yet.

There isn't a thing this kid cannot do.

In this calendar year Alaba has been to good to at the very minimum be runner up.

17 year old Raheem Sterling Is he the youngest on the list??
