Recall that the Liverpool striker won the Player of the Year award .
This year's, Virgil van Dijk was the winner ages before his team-mate's big moment.

Virgil van Dijk poses with his PFA Player of the Year award
Defender van Dijk was delighted with his award in London.
"I think it's special, definitely," he said. "If you see the standard of strikers we have in the league or playmakers we have in the league, it's unbelievable.
"If you see the shortlist and quality there is, it's very special that the players in the league voted for me. I won't take it for granted. It's just very special.
"I think throughout the whole season I've been feeling great. We've been winning many games, we are competing with Man City for the title and I think the most important thing is to stay fit and play consistent as well - I think I've been doing that pretty well this season.
"Obviously without the help of my team-mates, it wouldn't be possible but we have just to keep going, carry on and I'm feeling good."
Liverpool are getting ready for Barcelona on Wednesday as they look to make the Champions League final again.
