Currently odds on Fav our Kev.
I had talk bollocks on a few weeks back with Durham and Gough and Gough was asked who he thought would win..... Said it should really come from the champions..... I shouted at the radio "what about the last 2 seasons you twat?"I've heard 2 discussions about this on the radio.
In the first, the expert said that when a team has dominated the season the way Liverpool have, you simply can't look beyond a player from that club.
(Which is news to us City fans).
In the second, someone said that of course KDB was the best footballer in England, but POTY "isn't just about that" so he'd give it to Henderson, as he "does things that most people don't see".
(Didn't give any examples).
You despair.

When Salad won it last year over Sterling, they said he deserves it as he is the top scorer...... Er, isnt that what the golden boot is for?The most ironic part is more winners of the award have come from teams that haven't won the league than have. I'd much rather that they come out and say that they want Henderson to win the award because of English/Liverpool bias and he has the best narrative. Don't try to insult people's intelligence by running with flawed arguments.
