Default The Guardian footballer of the year 2017: Juan Mata

Manchester United midfielder’s Common Goal project, in which players and managers donate 1% of their salary to charity, makes him a worthy recipient

Absolute don.

Distasteful that not a single of his United colleagues have signed up to his initiative. Says perhaps something about the characters in our squad? Obviously they will have heard of common goal. Do they expect Mata to come and beg for them to join?

Thumbs down

Should concentrate more on his football and less on helping random tramps.

Top red

I imagine some lads like Rooney have their own foundations, but agreed. 35 players across Europe is pitiful.

Genuinely never heard of almost any of those players. Are they even real? Sounds like some kind of tax evasion scheme to me

Seriously? Even I've heard of Hummels, Chiellini and Kagawa and I don't know anything about football

Had a look to see who else had won this prestigious honour and it only started last year when it was won by Fabio Pisacane.

So they give it to an alcoholic one year and a man in a child's body the next. Classic guardian. Maybe they should stick to hating white men.

When’s Daniel sticking his 1% in the little virgin?

Pretty sure it’s meant to be everyone involved in the game, so talentless hacks like Frodo should be at the front of the queue given they leech a living from football despite contributing absolutely nothing of any worth.
