Welcome into the latest edition of ESPNFC. I'm Dan Thomas, joined by Craig Burley and Stevie Nicolid.

It is the day we've all been waiting for the 30-man shortlist has been announced for this year's Ballondor.

And of course, there will be a new winner this year. Rodry not involved because of his injury.

Maybe a couple of years ago we thought it might be Venetius Jr maybe Killeenbapé battling out for this award of course both

Christiana Ronaldo and Leon Al Messi but according to the bookie bookies there is

certainly one front runner and that is Usman Dembele of course so key to the success

that PSG had during their season going to win the Champions League.

But it's La Miena Mall that the Buckees reckon could push Dembele all the way.

Of course, the teenage sensation, just incredible this season for both Barcelona and Spain.

I think the only argument is some of the names that are actually on the list.

Well, they had to make 30, didn't they? Yeah, exactly. You can tell. First Scottish player for 38 years, Stephen. Is it the first for 38 years, Scott McToramone? That's fantastic. I mean, obviously he's not going to come close to win. But how fantastic is that?

Put out by Man United,
