They should have based it on the past two seasons as there was no award last season.

In my opinion the player who has been consistently the best in the past two seasons is Lewandowski.

A bit of joke for Messi to win it. Should have gone to Lewandowski and Mendy should have won best keeper.

Remember when they passed Henry for Pavel Nedved? That one still hurts.

With Argentina winning the Copa America in the year, Messi’s first major international tournament, quite glad he won this award… probably not deserved, but then looking at the top list, quite a few players in weak leagues who don’t deserve to be there.

Yep. It was BS on two fronts because he should have won the FIFA World Player of the Year over Zidane in 2003 as well. No idea how he lost to Nedved.

That European ban we had put us down the pecking order. I always wonder what the team that won the league at Anfield in 89 could have done if they'd been allowed in the European Cup.
