    Maybe harsh on Virgil, who was imperious as a defender. Messi had an outstanding year which was perhaps overshadowed by their Champions League failures.

    Proud of Van Dijk. 2nd (above Ronaldo) is still an impressive feat.

    Messi is badly let down by the majority of his teammates and manger.

    If you were to put him in that Liverpool team for example it would be frightening.

    It's an individual award and individually he's head and shoulders above the rest.
