My vote for him is because he scores so many goals every year, he does so much for the team, gives so much for his team, Sterling said.There was a lot of talk about Virgil van Dijk. I knew he would have a lot of the votes, so I looked at someone I thought being around him in the national team, how he puts in his work, his work ethic, how he looks after himself.Hes always there, especially coming back from injury, as a professional I looked at him and thats my reason for voting for him, seeing him on a day-to-day with the national team.

Sterling was pleased to be on the shortlist but would rather win the league and FA Cup.Its nice to be recognised on that front but, to be honest, if we dont win the Premier League, I dont really want to be in contention, said Sterling. What I want to do is win the Premier League, win the FA Cup, then think about stuff like that, even though the awards are before that.Without that, it doesnt mean much to me, really.City are two points behind Liverpool with a game in hand. Pep Guardiolas side face Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday with a chance to reclaim top spot.
