striker9: Calling Mikel useless is not an opinion but hatred,now I know why bunch of y'all keep talking like an antagonist,God pass you.

Essien Career total = 51 goals wink

Mikel Career total = 10 goals

Dear Sir, 6 clean sheet in 52 weeks is a big achievement for any goal keeper, but as it is, goal keepers seldom win this award in question.


Do u know how many bayern keeper Manuel neuer kept last season ? Hahahahaha bro it's not a factor, let's reason together bro, if mikes was a Zambia player would he be given, after all Zambia too won the cup, and I didn't think it was given to any of their players, I know u love mikel but yaya is better and since it's called the African footballer of the year( individual ) then I go for yaya, u can go for mikel or enyeama, it doesn't mean you are wrong, it's just ur opinion as many that will vote for mikel will be disappointed too, and the fact that u agree its mikel does not make u right since the game has rules and we have agreed to stick to the rule, then whatever CAF chooses we accept and we respect #

striker9: I didn't know scoring a certain of goals half way a season has become an individual award.

I didn't know theirs an individual award for keeping clean sheets, Petr Cech should have been up for the Ballon D'or if that was the case

So tell me how Yaya Toure doesn't fit into the Criteria above knowing that he score more goals than any Nigeria player during the world cup qualifying games


And also make a the same case for Emmanuel Adebayor in 2008

Whether he scored more goals than all the teams put together, what's important is that ur team qualifies.

Name another African Midfielder that has or has ever score 12 goals half way through a league season.

The main fact Yaya Toure plays in a far more stronger league than Ligue 1 Cavanni, Zlatan and Falcao are not the be all and end all of football, Vicent faced both Spain and Uruguay, I believe that's a level up from the Nations cup and shipped 5 goals against both teams
so he's great in EPL,tell me, why hasn't the great Toure won Champions League with City? He's great, why couldn't he survive in La Liga? You think it's easy to be in Chelsea for 7 years? Why was Toure outclassed in Barcelona if he's world class? Enyeama has the highest average saves in EUROPE, beating GK's like Valdes, Buffon, Neuer, Lloris. He's not just the best African goalie you oaf, your Toure has the best record by an AFRICAN in Europe, but there are better non-African mid-fielders than him, Enyeama was the BEST GK, NOBODY was better than him, and you have the guts to come here and belittle his achievements? You think it's easy for a GK to win Player of the Month in ANY League over strikers? Please if the alomo you drank is affecting your system, keep your thoughts to yourself instead of sounding like a brainless 1d10t.

eaxes: This just goes †☺ show H̶̲̥̅θψ poor and mediocre African football is. Smh
Lol that is african football for u .......for those supporting mikel,i have read only one guy's comment where he was defending mikel based on the game,that is,the football that takes place during 90 minutes...is that not what football is about,now these other mikel supporters are just like he won afcon,yaya didnt,making it look like mikel won the title alone,if that were to be the basis of judging the,award,we all watched that tournament....was he even our best player?..That is my problem with this argument here,No one talks about FOOTBALL here,they only talk Based on saying they are standing behind mikel cos he fought for our country and plays for thier club,no disrespect to our beloved country but is that no the sentiment/tribe confusion that theu are bringing in here,saying we dnt appreciate our own?



IS THAT WHAT THIS IS ABT!! JEEZ

Did he not ship 6 goals at the Confederations cup?

Look I dont celebrate mediocre performance or average Performance yes am a Chelsea fan if they give Jose the chance to swap both players he will in a heart beat.... go to any major sport network in the world (FOX Sport, ESPN, SKY, BBC Sport, Eurosport etc) They will tell you that Yaya Toure is the best by a distance

The truth is, individually Yaya Toure is better than Mikel, but on deserving this award, Mikel edges him. Is this difficult to comprehend?

pfijacobs: Pathetic thinking...
Its quite obvious dat d selection of players in soccer for any award is based on hype, sentiment and controversy.. Quote me.. Since grandpa made d list. They have proven to us dat dey want to intimidate us. Mikel might av been average last year. Buh he proved one thing..( With every oda super eagle) Dat der is a great wave of revolution in nigerian football.. I am particularly impressed wif his composure during d confed match. Against spain we're he dominated d midfield against his childhood role model.. Xavi! Toure myt b a better player but last year was d year of the green, d white and d green,, toure should av scored d winner, disgraced us 'super chickens' and saved himself dis shit of losing to. An 'inferior' player.. Since enyeama is not on dat list balance da phucking equation..and give mikel d award.. Although I fink dis worldcup would clear doubts on their individual comparable capabilities...
Shikena!!!
individual comparable capabilities btw who and who? Bro, if you talking about football no basis to compare Mikel with yaya.

What a load of Rubbish your talking KAKA!!! , Guardiola didn't fancy him does that mean he is a bad player, he was bought by Frank Rijkaard and yes he won the CL with Barcelona, Guardiola didnt fancy Ibrahimovich, Eto, Deco, Thuram, Thiago Motta I guess that means they are bad players? I believe both Eto and Motta that Guardiola booted out went on to win the CL with Inter - Milan. Mikel staying at Chelsea for 7 years means what? he spent half the time warming the bench and Enyeama played in a mickey mouse league. We are in a European transfer window lets see how many big clubs that coming in for the great Vincent.

you don't have to be a European to win European player of the year. You only have to play in Europe to qualify for it.

If not awarding the African best player award to Mikel would be a criminal acts because of the trophies he won then it would a criminal act if Ribery doesn't win world best player either. You guys want Ronaldo to win it cos of the goals he scored that resulted to nothing besides qualifying his team for world cup which some players qalready did way back.

mumu, na only you no know say Enyeama don sign contract till 2017 with Lille i.e HE'S NOT FOR SALE. Lol, Guardiola didn't fancy him, Mikel played under up to 6 different coaches with different tactics and he was never sold, because Mikel can ADAPT to any style, he's VERSATILE, your Toure is stagnant. Who is better then? A stagnant Toure or a versatile Mikel? Jeez! All these JJC's are just making my football IQ reduce with their lame arguments. Imagine this one doesn't even know Enyeama's contract has been renewed. Chai!
