Not sure why Bellingham was even a candidate?
Thought the whole Bellingham "Birmingham" thing was nauseating. Noses clinging to a vicarious claim to glory.
I'm absolutely amazed that anyone gives enough of a shit about this to argue, I think I stopped being in any way interested in about 1987.Awards ceremonies are toss.

Why the fuck did I start reading this thread though? Why the fuck did you start reading this thread?

Not that he should have won, but being nominated is fair enough.Owen won it for scoring one goal as England were knocked out by the first vaguely competent opposition they faced, Gazza won it for one assist and crying after picking up a trademark stupid booking and Beckham won it for scoring a goal in a draw in a qualifying game, while Giggs won it for... errm... nobody knows.Bellingham was a far better candidate than any of them.
