Jamie Vardy may not be in top form right now, but his fellow professionals have ranked him among the best players in the world in 2016.
Vardy has been nominated for the FIFPro's 2016 World XI, in which players vote for the world's best team, despite having not scored a club goal since September 10.
The Leicester striker has been rewarded for his brilliance last season, when he helped lead his team to their first Premier League title, and is the only Englishman to make the list with Wayne Rooney dropping out for the first time.


Vardy is joined on the list by four other Premier League first-timers in former team-mate N'Golo Kante, West Ham's Dimitri Payet and Arsenal starlet Hector Bellerin.
