It's very hard to select eleven players because there are somany great players. I love to have some more players but only eleven players have the spot. Finally this is my eleven

I get the feeling that Dani Alves will get nominated even after he retires

Benzema getting selected is more embarassing .... scored 12 goals in all competitions while playing for a team like Real Madrid....

Messi, Cr7 and Salah where the deadliest attackers last season. Modric was outstanding and won the golden ball and ucl poty KDB Notched in the most assists in club football and inspired city to a record breaking epl run. Kante was the heart of the France defence and is a world champion Marcelo is out of this world. varane is the only defender to have both ucl and Wc in this year's edition Ramos was the heart of the Madrid's defense Carvajal was OK. not to shabby POTY is Modric. Dont ask why
