I'm suprised he's won this, purely because in my opinion he hasn't been Liverpools best player this season let alone the best in the league. I cannot believe Vidic hasn't won one of the awards so far, it seems defensive performances go un-noticed when it comes to individual awards.

Maybe the football writer felt that Vidic's defensive brilliance this season could not be rewarded because of the 3 ( Three ) red cards amassed by him. This includes 2 for elbowing opponents.
