Yep. No one performed on that much higher level compared to others this season that you could say "he absolutely deserved it". Definitely not an easy choice to make this season. Would be interesting to see the percentages in the voting.
Wont say that he doesnt deserve it, but to be fair - one can argue that no one from our team was outstanding and performed way better than the rest. There are 4 or 5 players that could have been voted MVP - Higuain, Dybala as the top scorer, Chiello as a leader of the best defence in Serie A, Buffon as captain and a leader, given its his last season and him and Woj did play huge part in conceding the least amount of goals this campaign. Then there are Benatia and Douglas Costa, who didnt enjoy the best start of the season, but improved greatly after, Medhi was rock solid game after game, Costa is definitely MVP for the second half of the season... Awesome player, world class in my book, huge impact, I enjoy his game, Beppe did good on this one, very very good...
Yes, overall he had a good year, also for his country. He was voted MVP for November, but all of Dybala, Higuain and Douglas Costa have been twice MVP of the month, so I guess it is fair that one of those three is selected as a MVP of the year, all three of them deserve it the most!

His goal against Inter at the San Siro will remain one of my favourite Juve goals for the rest of my life, I reckon. Crunch time for the scudetto, we had just been 2-1 down a couple of minutes earlier and then right before the end he heads home the winning goal against our fiercest rival. Practically ending the title race in the process, breaking both Inter and Napoli hearts. It's the stuff of dreams, really.
