This is absolutely disgraceful what is happening with football in this country, its all about high profile names and not peoples achievements. Who actually makes up the nomination list? How does a defender like van dyke get nominated when his team dominates most games giving him little to do. I actually think Son is the most underrated player in the Premier league and deserves to win the award this year yet he's not even nominated.
Winning the golden boot when you're not the usual penalty taker is a fair achievement.
Agreed.
Time to judge the players on this season's achievements - not past
Son is an absolutely fantastic player, and if he was South American or Spanish/Portuguese everyone would be frothing at the mouth about how good he is. It's stupid, however I genuinely believe that because he's from a country with very little by way of footballing pedigree, he doesn't get the recognition he should be getting
It is a nonsense. Not only is he a very regular goal scorer he is the complete team player. It stinks. :031:

I'm surprised that none of the top teams have come in for him.
Kane may not have scored as many goals without him.
Great Player totally baffling decision.
Yeah he can feel pretty hard done by there. Of this list, he's had a better season than Ronaldo, probably better than Kane (remember the first few months?), and I'd say on a similar level to Mane and Salah. I do think Van Dijk is freakishly good though, completely transforms the way they play, and De Bruyne has carried City in the last few months
Virgil van Dijk - Liverpool
Harry Kane - Tottenham Hotspur
Sadio Mané - Liverpool
Cristiano Ronaldo - Manchester United
Mohamed Salah - Liverpool
Kevin De Bruyne - Manchester City
Son is a terrific player and has been one of my favorite players over the last 2-3 years. Can't believe he wasn't at least considered for this recognition.

Excellent that the FA Cup and League Cup winners have produced half the nominations. It is about time that these competitions received proper recognition. :dft012:
Think he has been the outstanding player not only at spurs but premier

I get the impression that many top teams now just think ' is it worth our time dealing with Levy ? '
nothing on Levy, he does what he has to do. But i feel that other clubs just can't be asked when it comes to going after spurs top players
Tottenham don't actually function without Son.
