POTY - Virgil Van Dijk

It has got to be Sterling for me. VD has been a good centre back who has made a difference to Liverpool but Sterling’s stats, general play and contribution to City and the national side have been enormous and he is English! I would like the pundits try to explain away VD winning POTY and one or two city players ranking higher in UEFA and FIFA European and World Player rankings whenever they come out.

Also, his contributions to the current racism debate has thrust Raheem into the national and international spotlight. They have been very positively received everywhere.
 
The ironic thing is, if Sterling wins the Player and/or Journo gongs it will be funny, because he isn't the CIty POTY! No offence to Raheem, he's been great, but the City honour SHOULD go to Bernardo who has been absolutely sensational this season.

van Dijk of course - in case you aren't aware he INVENTED the role of centre back this season. In all previous seasons players like Vinnie, Bobby Moore, Jack Charlton etc just wandered about tackling anything that came near them. VvD is quite simply THE centre back and of course has been overdue the award since match day one this season.
 
Why is Laporte not even in the discussion ? Been the best defender for City and only 2 cleansheets less than VVD.
