What's really bizarre is that the club are running the story in their media section with the Mirrors report that he's signed a new contract. I find that particular part of the clubs website a bit odd.
Hopefully comes back fresh from international games if possible. Few little dips recently including yesterday. I Know no he is human, but if Gomez lovern matip stood by like yesterday for the goal, there pages would be red hot talking about it.
Whatever the reason for his non appearance for Holland during the week I thought he was back to his best yesterday without him we could well have dropped this points, such an imposing figure and leader.
Just reading reports Messi will be crowned. I know it’s not about the individual awards and I’m sure VVD would much rather win titles with the team, but such a shame as he has been near on flawless since he signed and this award would’ve been much deserved.
If the judges had no memory of seasons gone past then Messi wouldn't be winning this. He's getting it because he's the best player over the last decade not because of last season. I'd have Van Djik and Mane ahead of Messi.
Have a sneaking suspicion that Sky Sports Ballon D'Or vote is frequented by a large number of Liverpool supporters. Current top 10 in their voting... 1. Virgil Van Dijk 2. Sadio Mane 3. Messi 4. T.A.A 5. Mo Salah 6. Alisson 7. Bobby Firmino 8. Ronaldo 9. Sterling 10. Gigi Wijnaldum 7 out of the top 10 - not too shabby
Ceremony is at 7.30, so depends on how much faffing around they do. By the by - how the fudge is Rhiad Mahrez is the top 10 for the award?!?!?
VVD should feel very hard done by for not winning the award if leaks are to be true. Can't see him doing a Ronaldo and not turn up out of self pity though.
None of our lads should be there with a game Wednesday unless they win but I suppose it’s a big deal for players
I saw an official list of the top 10 that did not have Hazard in there. The leaked results had Hazard in 10th
