Being CR7 and playing for a Sky club, while Son doesn't play for a Sky club. I can't think of any other reason.
It never changes, these awards always go to the so called "top" teams. The Ballon D'or for years always went to either Messi or Ronaldo and as great as they were there were other players in certain years that deserved it more. Didn't Messi win it last year when he was no where near his form of old. The awards given by the sports writers just about shows how little they know about football and not worth giving a second glance to what they write.
It's one thing for the media hacks to be ignorant, but the players are supposed to be the ones who really know who's producing. Although teams only face each other twice a season (or 3 or 4 times if they get drawn together in the cups), players surely have mates on other teams, so they'll hear through the grapevine who's really in form.
Well I can sort of see why Kane was on it I mean he should probably have won it off the back of the season prior but given when players are asked to pick it was probably around that spell where Harry was in outrageous form (before Ashley Young tried to fuck his ankles up and then Brighton's keeper landing on them a game or two later)
