Mention for Keane from Dion Dublin, I thought Heaton might have got a mention, however it is the usual suspects on the shortlist.

Hi bfcjg, Michael Keane and Tom Heaton both get a mention from Rachel Brown-Finnis:

Brown-Finnis' shortlist
Dele Alli (Tottenham)
Tom Heaton (Burnley)
Michael Keane (Burnley)
Romelu Lukaku (Everton)
Sadio Mane (Liverpool)
Danny Rose (Tottenham)
Brown-Finnis: "I went for players that have impressed me, not necessarily ones from the top teams."

I assume she means that Tottenham, Everton and Liverpool aren't her "top teams." ;)

Lazy pundits sticking to 4 or 5 big club stars rather than seeing the bigger picture of individuals performing well in other clubs who don't get the exposure.

If it were football 'personality' and down to the press and the most talked about, then Ibrahimovic would surely win.
