As it currently stands, Mane just!
However strong cases could be made for Alisson, VVD and Hendo.

I got on Henderson at 33/1 in January. His performances without Fabinho were awesome. He sets the pace for the rest of the team and has been brilliant.

We will possibly have 8 or more players in the team of the season. It could be we could see a clean sweep although I suspect De Bruyne will get in there somewhere. If there is one player who could make a late challenge it could be Alisson.

For me it is between Mane and Alisson but the latter missed quite a few games and keepers rarely get the trophy

Alisson, he is making outrageous saves in the past 10 games or so despite missing a chunk of the season, he is on route to the golden glove. Keepers should get more respect.

Henderson has been great for us but would you rather have him than Kevin de Bruyne? I think the latter would have been even greater

The poster boy of English football will be right up there in the nominations I’d say. Apart from that Mane for me.

De Bruyne is a fantastic player but is not a leader. Henderson is a leader. I would rather have Henderson.

Assuming that you are right that De Bruyne is not a leader, the PFA awards the technical skills of the player rather than leadership, not a lot of captains (formal or informal) have won it before. Salah, Mahrez are no more leaders than De Bruyne.

Regarding Henderson, I think it's a sentimental choice, the media were raving about him for a couple of weeks. The way I see it, the winner has to be someone special in terms of ability and contributing on a weekly basis. If you take him out of the team and place Fabinho in his role for example, nothing changes, the team will not notice his absence, that means he is replaceable. For me, he cannot win because of the reason I stated, that doesn't mean he is unimportant because he is a vital piece of the puzzle but if a liverpool player wins and rightly so, Alisson, Vvd, the full backs, the front 3 all deserve it ahead of Henderson.
