“I’m not going to tell you who I voted for but I will tell you about the players that, from my point of view, can win it. I think Victor Lindelof has had very good spells during the season. He’s shown he’s a mature player, he has confidence on the ball and he can defend well and he’s a great guy. I’d be happy for him if he wins it. Luke Shaw, as well, has had some good months during the season and I’m really happy for him after the injury he had. It’s not easy to come back and perform at that level, so Luke is another option [to win it]. Paul Pogba has been playing very well for some months, especially after Ole took over, so he’s another name that could win. Let’s see what happens but I think we would swap winning the Player of the Year award for us all to win the Premier League. Whoever wins it, I’ll be very happy for them.”
