Quite right too. No suprise at all to see N'Golo Kante, Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy make up half of the six-man shortlist, with the other three spots filled by Dmitri Payet, Harry Kane and Mesut Ozil. They've been pretty ace as well.

Seems about right, though David De Gea might be feeling a touch aggrieved.
Kane pops up again in the Young Player nominations, alongside Tottenham team-mate Dele Alli, Stoke keeper Jack Butland and Liverpool's Phil Coutinho, who you probably assumed was a bit too old for this sort of thing. Everton pair Romelu Lukaku and Ross Barkley complete the list.
