Article was released today with the top 10 to be revealed soon.

Looks pretty solid this year. There are a few rankings I disagree with but it appears the top 10 is going to be a combination of Messi, Ronaldo, Suarez, Neymar, Bale, Sanchez, Aubameyang, Griezmann, Lewandowski, and Mahrez (!?).
Because its the Guardian they have to include a player that not a lot of people have heard of, and this year its Miguel Borja.
Pjanic at 70 screams too low to me, as does Alaba at 61 and Muller at 31.
Players who I think are too high? Mahrez, apparently. Vardy at 19, Di Maria at 43 (he's been shit for PSG this season). Renato Sanches at 51 (he is an incredible prospect but lets see him get into the Bayern team consistently first), and Aaron Ramsey...who probably shouldn't be on the list....
